Huyen Khong Son Thuong Pagoda

• Architectural beauty and serene space: The pagoda is built in ancient Vietnamese architectural style, using wood as the primary material, lined with red clay tiles, and mahogany-colored roofs, creating a rustic yet dignified atmosphere. The main hall enshrines the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha, flanked by Sariputta and Moggallana statues, alongside large calligraphic works deeply infused with Zen style.
• Outer yard grounds: Highlights include the 500 m² Stone Grass Garden, where monks practice martial arts, converse, and recite poetry; the Five Lakes (Thuy Nguyet Dam, Son Anh Ho, Vong Oa Dam, and others) crossed by wooden bridges creating romantic scenery; and the Calligraphy Pavilion, displaying seasonal calligraphy works that reflect the harmony between art and nature.
• Huyen Khong Meditation Forest: Surrounding the pagoda are the Van Tung Son pine forest and a 27-hectare acacia forest, offering fresh, cool air. Visitors can listen to birdsong, wind rustling through pine trees, and babbling streams, creating a relaxing natural symphony.

Thien Mu Pagoda

• As one of the oldest pagodas in Hue, Thien Mu Pagoda was built in 1601, closely tied to the sacred legend of Lord Nguyen Hoang.

On Sovaba Travel's tour, this is usually the first stop, helping travelers learn more about the historical and Buddhist cultural values of the ancient capital.
