Overview

The Cao Dai Holy See is worth the drive on its own — a religion invented in 1926 that borrows from everyone, in a building that looks like it was designed by all of them at once. Then the cable car up Ba Den, the highest point in southern Vietnam.

Your day, step by step

Morning: Trang Bang and the Holy See · Breakfast, lunch included

An early start, breakfast in Trang Bang, then Go Ken pagoda and on to the Holy See itself for the architecture and, if the timing works, a service.

Midday: up Ba Den

The cable car to the summit, where it is noticeably cooler, then lunch and time for the Buddha statue, the Buddhist art museum and the flower gardens before heading back.

Times are a guide: traffic and the sailing or opening schedule on the day can move them a little.
