The start of our journey to The Huong Pagoda (English: Perfume Pagoda) which is a vast complex of Buddhist temples and shrines built into the limestone Huong Tich mountains. It is the site of a religious festival which draws large numbers of pilgrims from across Vietnam.The centre of the Huong Temple lies in Huong Son Commune, Mỹ Đức District, former Ho Toy Province (now Hanoi). The centre of this complex is the Perfume Temple, also known as Chua Trong (Inner Temple), located in Huong Tich Cave.It is thought that the first temple was a small structure on the current site of Thien Tru which existed during the reign of L� Th�nh T�ng in the 15th century. Legend claims that the site was discovered over 2000 years ago by a monk meditating in the area, who named the site after a Tibetan mountain where Lord Buddha practiced asceticism.We were rowed up the river Yen to our destination.
