This large Cambodian Hinayana Buddhist pagoda, whose name means Big Buddha, was founded about 2 centuries ago. Though all of the three dozen monks who live here are ethnic Khmers, ethnic Vietnamese also frequent the pagoda. Inside the sanctuary (vihara), figures of the Thich Ca Buddha wear Cambodian –and Thai-style pointed hats. Around the exterior of the main hall are eight small altars.

The two towers near the main entrance are used to cremate the bodies of deceased monks. Near the pagoda are the tombs of about two dozen monks. Prayers are held here daily from 4am to 6am and 5pm to 7pm. The pagoda, off Quang Trung St, is officially open during the seventh, eighth and ninth lunar months (summer season), but guests are welcome all year round.
