This ancient Khmer pagoda covers an area of 10ha, half of which is natural forest - a habitat of different species of birds. The front gate faces the river while the 3-door back gate of the pagoda looks like a system of three caves with 12m-thick wall - the largest cave in the middle and two small ones in the sides. Passing through the gate, visitors will get lost in the pure and peaceful space of green woods.

The sanctum is built on a 3m-high base and decorated with splendid patterns. Its roof is constructed with overlapping tile-layers. There are pillars standing in the sides of the sanctum, and a shrine in the middle for worship of Buddhas.

Hang Pagoda plays a very important role in the spiritual life of Khmer people in Tra Vinh Province - a place for Khmer religious studies. Walls carved with Buddha’s teachings are of deep educational meaning and great cultural value for the Khmer community. Visiting the pagoda, visitors can also witness and buy valuable exquisite sculptures made by the monks in the pagoda.
