Thien Mu pagoda in Hue

#traveldiaries The Thien Mụ Temple is a historic temple in the city of Huế in Vietnam. Its iconic seven-story Phước Duyên pagoda is regarded as the unofficial symbol of the city, and the temple has often been the subject of folk rhymes and ca dao about Huế. The temple sits on the Hà Khê hill, in the ward of Hương Long in Huế. Thien Mu Pagoda is regarded as one of such treasures. It stands out for its ancient architecture, holiness, and mythology, filled with a variety of obscure historical legends. The pagoda is free to visit. Try and arrive in the morning before large tour groups show up.
