Flowers in the mountain temple

Many mountains and forests covered in purple-pink color of Lagerstroemia flowers have created spectacular and poetic scenes, like a gift from nature to travelers on the long journey.

In Nha Trang today, wild purple flowers are blooming on the slopes of Chin Khuc mountain, adding to the simple yet poetic beauty of a temple on a high mountain. Phap Son Pagoda has long been a solemn place for Buddhists from all over to come and contemplate and calm their souls. In addition to the year-round wind, rain, and clouds, it now adds a warm and gentle earthly color.

The abbot brought the purple-flowered Lagerstroemia species from Khanh Vinh mountain forest here, quietly taking care of them for five years to welcome the first flower season today.

In front of the temple gate, watching flowers, catching the wind and looking out at the vast ocean far away right before my eyes, it seems like all the wounds of life are gradually being healed.

Lagerstroemia is a wild tree that grows in dry, rocky places without needing care. Every season in the 5th lunar month, dense clusters of flowers bloom brilliantly with a purple color mixed with pink.

Phap Son Pagoda is located in Dat Lanh village, Vinh Thai commune, Nha Trang, is an ancient pagoda overlooking the sea.

Many people and tourists come to Phap Son Pagoda to visit the temple and take photos as souvenirs.

The statues and paths in the temple become more beautiful when the purple flowers bloom.

Each flower of the Lagerstroemia has 6 delicate petals and a beautiful flower shape, with an unusual arrangement, growing in clusters of 20 - 30cm at the tips of the branches. The Lagerstroemia fruit is spherical, 1.5 - 2cm in diameter, initially the fruit is quite soft and has a light purple-green color, when it is old it is hard and has a brown color like wood. Besides the Royal Poinciana, the purple Lagerstroemia flower is also a flower of school age.
