PHAT TICH PAGODA


Phat Tich Pagoda was built between the 7th and 10th centuries by the mountainside of Phat Tich, Tien Du District, Bac Ninh province.





A large scale restoration was carried out in 1057 under Ly Dynasty. King Ly Thanh Tong ordered to build a tower for valuables and he had a gold – inlaid – statute cast. By the passing time the pagoda was heavily damaged, especially in 1947. It was restored in 1991 as it’s original design. Some valued ancient relics are preserved in pagoda such as the statute of Amitabha Buddha on a 1.87 high lotus pedestal carved out of blue stone, a tower garden, and a stone board engraved with images of musician and dancing girls.





On 25 September 2010, a giant Buddha statute based on model of Amitabha Buddha inaugurated on the peak of Phat Tich mountain. The statute is 27 m high and weighs 3,000 tons, one of the largest stone statutes in South East Asia.
