The check-in area is about 500m from the Stone Church, with over 10,000m² of space and panoramic views of the Hoang Lien Son mountain range and Fansipan peak.

From the upper station, passing through Thanh Van Gate (Thien Mon Gate), visitors enter a world of clouds. Bich Van Zen Monastery, located at an altitude of over 2,000m, welcomes visitors and Buddhists from all directions with its pure Vietnamese architecture amid drifting mist. Walking through the sound of temple bells echoing among clouds and mountains, at an altitude of 3,000m, you will see the majestic 21.5m tall bronze statue of Amitabha Buddha, standing solemnly in the mystical clouds, casting a compassionate gaze over the world.

In this calm and sacred moment, as you pray amidst the gentle spring atmosphere and budding rhododendrons, raspberries, peaches, and plums, you will feel emotions of love and hope blooming within your heart.

From the Great Buddha statue, the Arhat Path—home to 18 bronze Arhat statues, each 2.5m tall, serene and compassionate amid drifting clouds—leads you to the Kim Son Bao Thang Temple complex, featuring ancient wooden Vietnamese temple architecture from the 15th–16th centuries. Visitors will also see statues of Avalokitesvara (Guan Yin), the Mountain Spirit Shrine, and more. Surrounding the area are centuries-old rhododendron trees enduring the cold, preparing to bloom in white, yellow, red, and pink in March and April.

Finally, after climbing 600 stone steps, you will reach the summit of Fansipan at 3,143m—known as the “Roof of Indochina.” From here, you can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views and cherish unforgettable personal moments.
