Truc Lam Bach Ma Zen Monastery is a monastery of the Truc Lam Yen Tu Zen sect.  It is situated at the foot of Bach Ma Mountain on the edge of Truoi lake in Loc Hoa Commune, Phu Loc District, Thua Thien – Hue Province.

The zen monastery, which was founded by Most Venerable Master Thuong Thanh Ha Tu, began construction on 30 March 2006.  It is one of the first zen monasteries to be built in the central region. 

Danang Today would like to share with our readers some photos which capture some of the amazing images of the Truc Lam Bach Ma Zen Monastery.  They were taken by reporter Van No during his recent trip to the site.
