Museum - The testament to the formation and development of Ba Vang Pagoda
From the moment you set foot in Ba Vang Pagoda, you will sense the grandeur and modernity of this vast architectural structure. However, as you enter the museum, this sense gives way to a completely different experience - a journey back in time.
The museum preserves precious historical values from various periods, spanning the entire development of Ba Vang Pagoda (also known as Bao Quang Tu - lit. “pagoda of the precious light”) since its inception.
The museum is organized into several display areas, each narrating meaningful stories that reflect the challenging years of its development from the beginning to the present day. Here, you can explore:
- Artifacts from the thirteenth century, originating from the Tran dynasty, standing as a testament to the Pagoda's enduring history.
- Documents and images about Thay Thich Truc Thai Minh, the abbot, capturing his early days at the Pagoda and his journey of practicing and propagating the Dharma, and building the Sangha.
- Awards, certificates, and records marking key milestones in the Pagoda's development.
Visiting the museum, you will sense the experience of witnessing the Pagoda's journey from its first bricks to its present-day grandeur and modernity.
