Description

Begin your journey with a visit to Thắng Nghiêm Pagoda, a tranquil tantric Buddhist pagoda near the capital's center. Admire the beautifully designed pagoda with yellow, brown, and red colors adorning it. Explore the temple complex, built almost entirely on the old temple foundations. Discover the statue of Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara exuding a peaceful aura, while the two rows of statues that flank it consist of 100 yellow Buddhas, each representing the Buddha Shakyamuni and imparting wisdom and virtue. Venture deeper into the temple grounds and come across Tam Bảo, which houses Buddha statues representing different philosophies of the religion. This is an important space of worship in Vietnamese temples, and most Buddhists who visit the temple will burn incense and pray at this location. There's also an ancestral house and tombs surrounded by pillars of samsara. Behind the Tam Bảo House is a large hall used for teaching Buddhist scriptures and holding major ceremonies, such as Lễ Phật Đản (the Buddha's Birthday) and Vu Lan Festival, also known as the filial piety ceremony. Explore the deep halls and discover the mysteries of the Vietnamese tantric practice. Bronze statues were carefully crafted by artisans from Hàng Đồng Street in Hà Nội. Get lost in the beauty of the garden behind the Tam Bảo House. The fragrant scent of incense, the sound of ringing bells, and chanting lull you into a dream-like state. Next, explore Cu Da Ancient Village, located about 15 km south of Hanoi, on the bank of the Nhue River. Known for its ancient houses, ancestral temples, and traditional handicrafts, this village offers a glimpse into Vietnam's rich cultural heritage. Discover the village's famous vermicelli, a staple in Vietnamese culinary culture. Learn about the traditional process of making vermicelli, which involves grinding arrowroot, mixing it with water to make a paste, and then steaming and drying it in the sun. Witness the labor-intensive process that has been passed down through generations. Next, learn about the village's renowned soybean sauce, a product with a history dating back 400 years. Discover the meticulous process of making this sauce, which involves using sticky rice, salt, soybeans, and clean water. Experience the unique flavor and aroma of Cu Da soybean sauce, which has gained recognition both locally and internationally. Finally, admire the beautifully preserved architecture of Cu Da Village. See a mixture of Asian, Chinese, Vietnamese, and French colonial-style buildings, reflecting the village's prosperous past. Stroll through the herringbone-shaped streets, lined with old houses and temples, and soak in the peaceful atmosphere of this charming village.
