Long Son Great House
Nhà Lớn Long Sơn
A century-old wooden temple complex on Long Son Island, built by a local leader known as “Father Tran.” It is a national-level historic site made up of many linked buildings.
Long Son Great House sits on Long Son Island, about 15 kilometers north of Vung Tau. It was built between 1910 and 1929 by local religious leader Le Van Muu, known as “Father Tran,” and his followers. The complex is a traditional southern-style group of wooden and tiled houses and ancestral halls, with dozens of rooms including the main hall, the ancestral hall and the guest hall, all finely carved. It was listed as a national historic and cultural site in 1991, and believers still live here according to traditional ways. Entry is free; visitors should be quiet and dress modestly. You can also visit the oyster farms and mangroves on Long Son Island.
