The Majestic Beauty of Tà Cú
Nguyễn Tấn Chính, Director of Tà Cú Mountain Tourism Joint Stock Company, shared his enthusiasm: “During the Lunar New Year, Tà Cú is always a top pilgrimage destination due to its unique charm and continuous improvements.”
Rising 694 meters above sea level, Tà Cú Mountain is home to two famous temples: Linh Sơn Trường Thọ and Long Đoàn, both located at about 400 meters in elevation. Linh Sơn Trường Thọ, commonly known as Tà Cú Mountain Pagoda or simply the “Upper Temple,” is distinguished from Long Đoàn, the “Lower Temple.” Together, they are known as the Mountain Temples.
Beyond its spiritual significance, Tà Cú is blessed with pristine natural landscapes. Towering ancient trees, so large that four to five people are needed to encircle them, and gently flowing streams enhance the serene atmosphere.

Nguyễn Lan Anh, a pilgrim from Bạc Liêu, shared: “This is my family’s fifth pilgrimage to the Mountain Temple. While there are many new, modern structures, the scenery remains unspoiled, with the temple seamlessly blending into the mountain. The curved rooftops exude peace and tranquility. Like many others, I come here to pray for a year of peace and happiness for my family.”

Nguyễn Tấn Chính further revealed that within the first seven days of the new year, approximately 12,000 visitors had traveled to Tà Cú, not including those brought by tour companies. To attract more visitors, TTC World – Tà Cú continues to invest in new attractions, plant more greenery, protect the environment, and preserve the Tà Cú Nature Reserve.
To offer unique experiences, Tà Cú is introducing programs like "Journey to Happiness" and "Awakening"—designed for corporations and large organizations to combine team-building activities with corporate culture training, in collaboration with expert facilitators.
Chính added: “If all goes well, by the second quarter of this year, we will launch a paragliding experience, currently under study by international experts. For sound therapy, we will incorporate instruments like the Handpan steel drum, Tibetan singing bowls, and bamboo flutes—each playing a role in immersive, therapeutic soundscapes. We also plan to establish a forest meditation zone, where skilled musicians will provide live healing sessions beneath ancient trees.”

“This year, we returned to see many new attractions. The Upper Temple is now complete, creating a breathtaking scene. The environment is greener and cleaner, offering more spaces for visitors not only to worship but also to relax, take photos, and enjoy time with family,” said Đoàn Trung Nghĩa, a visitor from Bà Rịa - Vũng Tàu.
Nguyễn Tấn Chính emphasized: “We will continue to work closely with Hàm Thuận Nam District and Bình Thuận Province to protect the environment, improve service quality, and promote sustainable tourism, ensuring the preservation of this national nature reserve.”
Visiting Tà Cú is not just a pilgrimage—it is a chance to immerse oneself in the soothing symphony of nature, the whispers of the mountains, the songs of birds, and the tranquil embrace of peace. Here, visitors can reconnect with themselves, experience spiritual awakening, and cleanse their souls with the fresh energy of nature, leaving behind worries to welcome a new chapter filled with hope and renewal.
