Thay and Tay Phuong Pagoda

Explore the historic Thay and Tay Phuong Pagoda in this tour.


Attractions and things to do - Thay and Tay Phuong Pagoda Tour

Spend a leisurely day in Vietnam exploring the historic Thay and Tay Phuong Pagodas. Drive 40 kilometres west of Hanoi to a quiet and beautiful village where the Thay Pagoda is situated. It is a combination of Buddhist pagodas and a Taoist temple, which is dedicated to Tu Dao Hanh, a Taoist hermit who lived in the 12th century. If you are visiting the pagoda in a festive season, don’t miss the water puppetry performance.

Eight kilometres from the Thay pagoda is the Tay Phuong pagoda, situated on a hilltop. You’ll have to climb 239 laterite steps to reach the temple, but the panoramic view of the surrounding countryside, is worth the effort! Marvel at the 75 Arhat statues which are considered the best form of plastic art and sculpture of Vietnam. The statues describe different legends of Buddha and his disciples.
