Tran Quoc Pagoda in Hanoi
Tran Quoc Pagoda is a Buddhist temple built on a small island in Hanoi’s West Lake, a short distance to the north of the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum.
History of the Temple
Tran Quoc Pagoda was established in the 6th Century, making it the oldest Buddhist temple in Hanoi. The temple was originally located on the banks of the Red River but needed to be relocated to its current location on Golden Fish Island in the 17th Century due to erosion of the river bank where it was first sited.
Twice Monthly Celebrations
Tran Quoc Pagoda is a major tourist attraction and religious centre which gets particularly busy with visitors on the 1st and 15th day of the lunar cycle, which are of special significance to Vietnamese Buddhists.

The Pagoda
The temple has lots of points of interest. The most striking is the 11 level pagoda which was constructed in 1998. The 15 metre tall pagoda is hexagonal with niches on each side on each level containing white statues of the Lord Buddha. The temple is accessed via a grand gate leading to the three main temple buildings: the Front House, the Ancestor House and the Steele House.
Bodhi Tree
Other attractions include a bodhi tree grown from a cutting from the original bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya in India under which the Lord Buddha achieved enlightenment. The temple also has a small museum with an interesting collection of religious artefacts.
