Tay Ninh Holy See: Unique Architectural Blend from Various Religions.

TAY NINH: The Tay Ninh Holy See, located in Tay Ninh province’s Hoa Thanh town, is a unique religious architectural work, the place of origin of Caodaism, where the central agencies of the Cao Dai Church are located. Tay Ninh Holy See, founded in 1926, is designed in the shape of a dragon horse lying majestically, its head facing the West with two horns reaching straight to the sky. The two horns are two 36-metre-tall towers prominently standing on the exterior, one is a drum tower and the other is a bell tower. The Holy See includes 12 gates and a gorgeous main entrance, which is used only for monks and authorised people.

According to Vietnam News Agency, on the outside, the Holy See is painted with a sacred yellow colour and decorated with many intricate designs on stairs and windows. The Holy See is now a pilgrimage destination for millions of Cao Dai followers around the world and an attractive spiritual tourism destination in Tay Ninh province.
