"While this complex for the Cao Dai religion—which was founded in Vietnam in 1926 and combines elements of a number of other faiths—includes offices and a clinic, the real draw for tourists is the great temple. The giant, bright, surreal building is located some 50 miles northwest of Ho Chi Minh City and it is the most important shrine for the religion's 2 million followers. The temple has an eclectic design, with front towers that resemble those of a mosque coupled with pagoda-style roofs along the sides. More striking still are the interiors, with brightly colored dragons wrapping themselves around columns and the ubiquitous symbol of a giant eye (the movement’s emblem is an eye inside a triangle), including on the large, orblike main altar."

A solemn and very spacious place of worship. There are many living areas inside such as schools. The Tay Ninh Holy See is a blend of religious and national cultural elements. In addition to its unique architecture, the Holy See of Tay Ninh is also famous for its religious ceremonies, including prayer ceremonies held at fixed times of the day.

The Tay Linh Holy See is located almost in city centre. The compound is very big and full of many religion structures and temple. The building color of orange and yellow are very attractive and eye catching.

The temple itself is very beautiful, BUT ! The temple staff behaved terribly. We didn’t know that stepping in certain areas was not allowed, because it was not shown anywhere, but instead of informing us, a staff member started grabbing our hands, pushing us, and being rude. When we told him not to touch us, he continued anyway. What kind of spirituality can there be if the temple staff themselves behave in such an inhumane way? Horrible experience

This is certainly a very unique Church and a must see place. It is known as "The Great Divine Temple," or as the Cao Dai Cathedral, or the Tay Ninh Holy See. It is a religious building in the Cao Dai Holy See complex and the first and most important temple of Caodaism here in Vietnam. This religion was established in 1926, and groundbreaking for this church took place in 1931, but due to insufficient budget, the actual construction did not start until 1936. The building was then finally completed in 1947.

Fantastic!!! What an amazing place for a uniquely Vietnamese religion established only about 100 years ago. This is the Vatican of Coa Dai. Unlike the Vatican, there are no stolen treasures or criminals hiding out in the buildings.

Well worth a visit. Unable to take pictures inside as there was a service, but the inside decoration is as spectacular as the outside!

The holy was built in 1931 ( as i asked the holy guardian man) and now it's the common place for Caodaist come to pray and practise for Caodaism. Really nice and meaningful place to visit
