Sac Tu Khai Doan Pagoda

Sac Tu Khai Doan Pagoda

Sac Tu Khai Doan Pagoda is located at 117 Phan Boi Chau Street, Thong Nhat Ward, Buon Ma Thuot City, Dak Lak Province. The pagoda is often called Lon Pagoda or Province Pagoda, facing southwest, overlooking Doc Hoc stream. Khai Doan is the last Sac Tu pagoda of the Nguyen Dynasty, the first pagoda of the Buddhist organization during the Revival of Vietnamese Buddhism in the Central Highlands, the land of the Imperial Dynasty during Bao Dai's reign. The pagoda was directly managed by Doan Huy Hoang, Queen Mother Hoang Thi Cuc (King Khai Dinh's concubine), King Bao Dai's mother, and Queen Nam Phuong, along with a number of dedicated Buddhists, to build for the Central Vietnamese Sangha. . Venerable Thich Tri Thu appointed his eldest son, monk Thich Duc Thieu, to direct the construction of the pagoda on a land area of ​​nearly 7 acres, 8 acres, 28 square meters and to be the first abbot. In 1951, the pagoda built the rear and lecture hall, and in 1953, the main hall was built. The name Khai Doan is a combination of two words Khai Dinh - Doan Huy. On June 29, 1953 (May 19, Year of the Snake), Mr. Narada Thera (Ceylon) requested the Buddha's relics to present to Tu Cung in Buon Ma Thuot. Attending the ceremony were Venerable Thich Tinh Khiet, President of the Vietnam General Buddhist Association, along with monks, Buddhists and a large number of people worshiping the Buddha's relics and praying for peace in the country. The pagoda was built by the skillful hands of workers in the ancient capital of Hue, so it has Hue communal house architecture mixed with local architecture. The main gate faces southwest, overlooking Quang Trung street, towards the 'Suoi Doc Hoc' valley. In front and behind the gate are written 'Khai Doan Tu'. The main hall is the main building of the pagoda with an area of ​​320m2 divided into two parts. The front half has the appearance of a Central Highlands long house, but the rafters structure is in the style of a Huong house. The second half is built in a modern style. The most notable in the main hall is the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha in the middle and the bronze bell placed in the room on the right. The 1.1m high bronze Buddha statue, 0.35m high wooden lotus with elaborate decoration, 1.15m high bronze bell, 2.7m base circumference, weighing 380kg were cast in January 1954 (i.e. December of the year of the Snake). In 1953, on the occasion of the Hau To's peaceful citadel ceremony, the pagoda was ordained as "Sac tu Khai Doan" - during the reign of King Bao Dai. In 1953, although the Nguyen Dynasty had ended, Bao Dai was still the Head of State of the State of Vietnam (the South) and with the institution of the Imperial Dynasty in the Central Highlands (Central Highlands), Bao Dai is still the Emperor of this land. And this is the last decree of a Vietnamese king bestowed on a Buddhist temple. Over more than half a century, the pagoda has succeeded seven generations of abbots. The current abbot is Venerable Thich Chau Quang, current Head of the Buddhist Administration Committee of Dak Lak province. In 1986, the Provincial Buddhist Executive Committee was established. The pagoda has been chosen to house the province's Buddhist office to date. Khai Doan Pagoda is the most famous temple in the Central Highlands.
