We visited the Truc Lam Zen Monastery on a cold winter day, and the whole monastery was hiding in the morning mist.

Trúc Lâm Tây Thiên Zen Monastery, Vinh Phuc, Vietnam. Truc Lam Zen sanctuary is located on Tay Thien Mountain, which belongs to the Tam Dao mountain range in the northern province of Vinh Phuc. Built in 2005 on the ruins of an ancient pagoda named Thien An Thien Tu, and using remains of that ancient pagoda’s floor, Truc Lam Tay Thien Zen Monastery sits majestically on the apex of the mountain, where from below the red tips of its tile-covered roof can be seen peaking through the pine trees.
