du hang pagoda |
Du Hang Pagoda is located at 121 Du Hang
Street, and is one of the Haiphong City's finest ancient
architectural relics.
|
It was built during the Ly Dynasty and later renovated in the 17th century by
Nguyen Dinh Sach, an officer of the imperial guard who resigned to
become a Buddhist monk.
In 1899, under the reign of Emperor Thanh Thai, a monk by the name
of Thong Hanh expanded the pagoda and built a bell tower. Inside the
pagoda are several statues, intricately engraved in the style of the
Nguyen Dynasty. Valuable relics such as bronze tripods and gongs are
also maintained.
