Lonely Planet review for Giac Vien Pagoda

Architecturally similar to Giac Lam, this striking pagoda also shares its atmosphere of scholarly serenity, although Giac Vien is less visited and in a more rural setting near Dam Sen Lake in District 11. The pagoda was founded by Hai Tinh Giac Vien in the late 1700's. It is said that Emperor Gia Long, who died in 1819, used to worship at Giac Vien. The pagoda remains a marvellously preserved artefact from the past, boasting some 100 lavish carvings of various divinities.
