From the upper station, passing through the Thanh Van Dac Lo Heavenly Gate, visitors enter the land of clouds. Bich Van Zen Monastery, located at an altitude of over 2,000 meters, welcomes visitors and Buddhist pilgrims from all directions with pure Vietnamese architecture amidst drifting mist. As you walk along the mountain paths to the sound of temple bells echoing through the clouds and wind, at an altitude of 3,000 meters you will see the majestic 21.5-meter bronze Amitabha Buddha statue, standing solemnly among the mystical clouds, compassionately gazing upon the human world.

In this peaceful and sacred moment, as you join your hands in prayer during the warm spring season, among blooming rhododendrons, raspberry, peach, and plum blossoms, you will feel love and hope blossoming in your heart. From the Great Buddha statue, the Arhat Path, lined with 18 bronze Arhat statues standing 2.5 meters tall in a serene cloudscape, leads visitors to the Kim Son Bao Thang Tu complex, featuring ancient Vietnamese wooden pagodas dating back to the 15th–16th centuries. Here, guests may worship the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva (Goddess of Mercy), the Mountain God Shrine, and other sacred sites.
