    More than just a pillar!

    This is a venue that is on the tourist track for those visiting Hanoi. The Pagoda has its own unique history and the setting is well worth the effort to go and see it. However the hidden gems to be found in the adjacent buildings...More

    One pillar temple

    Not that easy to find, it took us awhile to find it, which is in the same block of the Ho Chi Minh National Museum... definitely is one of the highlights in the city... but a popular sight that is inevitably too crowded 😫😣😖

    Well-hidden pagoda

    The pagoda is hidden deep in the mausoleum complex and you can only reach it after a long walk. The place do not have anything special, you cannot go inside the pagoda, only looking and taking picture from outside.

    Nice environment

    One pillar pagoda is at the same location with Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. There is no entrance fees charges to visit one pillar pagoda. Worth a quick visit to the pagoda and surrounding area.
