Linh Phuoc Pagoda

Getting around: In Trai Mat village, about 8km east of central Da Lat — a 20-25 minute taxi or Grab ride, or reachable by the short tourist train from Da Lat Railway Station.
Hours: Typically open daily, roughly 7am-5pm.

Linh Phuoc is a large, elaborately decorated pagoda covered almost entirely in mosaic made from broken glass and ceramic shards, giving it a much more maximalist, colorful look than most Vietnamese temples. A giant dragon made from thousands of glass bottle fragments winds around the courtyard, and a tall bell tower and multi-story structure add to the scale.

It's one of the more visually striking religious sites in the Da Lat area and pairs naturally with the tourist train ride from Da Lat Railway Station, since the two are a short walk apart in Trai Mat village.
