********************************************
Vinh Nghiem Temple is a Buddhist temple built between 1964 and 1971 by a monk who trained in Japan.
Because of that, cherry blossoms were blooming.
The main hall was crowded with people because sutra chanting was taking place.
The sutra chanting is held twice a day, at 9:15 and 15:30, for about 1 hour and 15 minutes.
The 40m-tall seven-story pagoda is also one of the highlights.
It's on your left as soon as you enter the grounds!
[A word of advice]
Admission is free, but please take off your shoes when entering the main hall.
This temple has ties to Japan, so it's one you definitely want to visit.
