The main hall of Pitu Khosa Rangsay, one of the most beautiful Khmer pagodas in the Cuu Long (Mekong) Delta, has been inaugurated in Can Tho City after four years of construction.

The three-storied hall covering 800sq.m was built at a cost of VND12 billion (US$576,900). It was funded by Buddhist followers at home and abroad.

The walls inside the hall are decorated with many relief figures of Buddha, Khmer goddesses, dragons and phoenixes created by many well-known artisans from southern provinces.
