6 reviews of Cao Dai Temple

The all-seeing eye

It was about noon when we arrived at the temple and the second we crossed the gate, we were thankful to have arrived and not given into our fatigue.

The bell at the top of the dome sounded a call to the faithful who began to congregate in the square. Their clothing seemed to add a touch of color to the temple. The strange thing about this temple is that it's not for any one religion in particular. Instead, it's Caodaist...open to Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims….everyone. In that sense, it isn't strange that they have their own "saints" like Victor Hugo, Joan of Arc, or Lenin. Their sacred symbol is an eye surrounded by carved flowers which is dubbed the "all-seeing eye."
