Vinh Trang Temple is a Buddhist temple near My Tho in the Mekong Delta region of southern Vietnam. It is one of the best-known temples in the region. The temple stands on a 2-hectare (4.9-acre) block filled with fruit trees in the village of My Hoa in the town of My Phong, on the banks of the Bao Dinh canal.
In the middle of the 19th century, the temple came into being through the endeavours of the district chief Bui Cong Dat, who organised its erection. He recruited the monk Thich Tu Lam from Buu Lam Temple to preside over Vinh Trang. Following the death of Bui Cong Dat, Thich Hue Dang presided over the remainder of the construction phase and the temple was completed in 1850.
