Continue up from the temples at the foot. The view from the climb reaches toward Cambodia, and caves run into the hillside if you have time. Phước Điền is the other name for this pagoda. The pavilion and the plain are the view you climbed for.

The building sits against the rock, with a path and a statue on the stone. That is the climb. The shrine at the gate below is a different stop. Come when you can see the plain.
Treat the cable car, when it is running, as its own ride up the hill.
