Since the re-establishment of Ninh Binh province in 1992, the headquarters of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha has been located at Phuc Chinh pagoda, Nam Thanh ward, Hoa Lu city. However, the headquarters is small and cannot meet the needs of meetings and Buddhist activities of the Association.
According to the wishes of all monks, nuns, Buddhist followers and the urgent need for a spacious and airy headquarters for working, meeting and receiving guests of the province's Buddhism. On July 8, 2024, the Provincial People's Committee issued Decision No. 476/QD-UBND on land allocation to implement the Investment Project to build the Headquarters of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha of Ninh Binh Province in Ninh Khanh Ward, Hoa Lu City with an area of 5,400m2.
The project is built with 3 floors, each floor is 1,250m2, total floor area is 3,750m2 including: Main hall to worship Buddha; Ancestral temple; Tu an temple; Administrative building; Monks and nuns' house; Bell tower; Drum tower...
The headquarters of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha in Ninh Binh province is designed with modern and traditional architecture, with brown tiled roofs and unplastered brick walls in harmony with the natural landscape, surrounded by green parks and lakes, bringing a majestic and quiet beauty with convenient and suitable functions.
After completion and put into use, the Headquarters of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha in Ninh Binh province will create an open space, a place for working, meeting, and welcoming guests of Ninh Binh province Buddhism, as well as a place for monks and nuns to spend summer retreats, a place for young people to study and experience with comfortable and modern reading rooms and classrooms.
The project was implemented with the support of Xuan Truong Construction Enterprise in paying all compensation costs for land clearance and leveling, and continued to receive help and support from monks and nuns in the province, Buddhists, people, and philanthropists in the form of socialization to soon complete.
