Phuoc Lam Temple
VIETNAM, Quang Nam, Hoi An |
Phuoc Lam means Grove of Blessings. It was built during the 18th century by the monk An Triem and was subsequently renovated by succeeding abbots. The temple is listed as a National Cultural Heritage Site.
The three-bay wide main hall is the principal building of the temple. It has a double-eave roof with nagas carved on the main ridge. The hall is connected on each side to a two-story building. In front of the hall there is a statue of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva standing on a high pedestal. Located within the temple there is a funerary stupa of Vinh Gia, who is from the 39th generation lineage of the Linji school of Chan Buddhism. |
