Chua Bai Dinh

Chua Bai Dinh is a huge Buddhist complex on a huge area near Ninh Binh. Many temples thousands of Buddha statues. Small, medium, large and huge and some mega-huge Buddhas are silently sitting there for hundreds of years mercifully accepting donations. They seem to like round things. Like pomelos, dragon fruits, round rice cakes, bottles of water, round cookies, etc... They even seem to like money, most importantly bank notes with many round zeros.... 500000 dong is the best... :)
We visited the pagodas and shrines.
