ONE DAY PERFUME PAGFODA EXCURSION
Tour Code: PL-N03
Chua Huong - the Perfume Pagoda is the name of a collection of Buddhist temples which are very sacred to
Vietnamese people of Buddhist faith, and an annual visit up here in springtime is a must to a lot of believers.
Located on the limestone rocks of Huong Son Mountain in beautiful and mystical surroundings, the pagodas are
70 km or two-hour driving out of Hanoi. Unlike other temples in Vietnam, the only way to reach this sanctuary is floating along
a narrow but extremely poetic stream by rowing boats that takes 45 minutes. An iron boat can carry 3-5 people and a large wooden
boat - up to 20 locals. The stream is edged by rice, grass, small paths, and temples here and there.
The main festive days of Chua Huong stretches from January to early April, busy and exciting. Sometimes it's drizzling and the
Vietnamese all believe that the real good things will reach you if you catch rainwater after praying in a sacred pagoda. And
among all the sacred temples and pagodas in Northern Vietnam, Chua Huong is even more attractive and mysterious not only for
its spectacular scenery, but for the painstaking road you passed over to reach to the top.
