Overview:
Tay Ho temple is considered one of the holiest places in the system of temples and pagodas in Hanoi, attracting not only Hanoians, but also tourists from all over the world to burn incense and pray for blessings.
Location:
Tay Ho temple belongs to Tay Ho village, formerly the land of an ancient village of Thang Long citadel now belongs to Quang An ward, Tay Ho district, Hanoi. Tay Ho temple is located on a large peninsula of Nghi Tam village, protruding in the middle of West Lake, about 4km west of the center of the capital.
History & Religion:
Tay Ho temple worships Lord Lieu Hanh. In the Vietnamese temple system, Lord Lieu Hanh is one of the four immortals (Son Tinh, Thanh Giong, Chu Dong Tu, Lieu Hanh Thanh Mau), a saint of the four palaces, which is essentially a worshiping religion. Modeling is a belief with long and unique origins in Vietnam. Legend has it that she is Quynh Hoa – the second daughter of the Jade Emperor, exiled to the world for breaking a precious glass. Down in the world, she traveled, explored everywhere, stopped on Tay Ho island, and discovered that this was a charming place of land spirit, so she stayed to open a restaurant as an excuse to enjoy literature in the midst of mysterious nature. miraculous.
That fairy has crossed the heavens to help people settle down and settle down, eliminate ghosts, and punish sightseeing. In the Nguyen Dynasty, she was conferred “the mother of the world" by the king, one of the four “immortal four" gods of Vietnam.
Most notably, in the Mother shrines, there are usually three goddess statues placed side by side: Mau Thuong Ngan is the one wearing a green shirt representing the forest, where ancient people lived on tubers; Maui (Shui) is the one who wears a white shirt, representing water; Mother Earth is the one wearing the yellow dress, symbolizing the land. These three models form the Tam Phu, explaining the evolutionary process of Vietnamese people, from forests, mountains, rivers, and streams down to the plains to settle down to grow wet rice. According to the concept of the Three Palaces, the ruler of the heavens has a celestial authority to bless people, the ruler of the earth has a place to forgive people’s sins, and the ruler of the water government has a customs authority to remove all obstacles, difficult for humans. With the mysterious power to bless, pardon and release the yoke, the belief of the Three Palaces is very attractive to everyone.
Legendary story:
According to legend, Tay Ho temple is the second meeting place of Princess Lieu Hanh and state Bung Phung Khac Khoan. As predestined, Poinsettias Phung Khac Khoan, while taking a boat trip on the lake, saw the beautiful scenery, so he stopped at the Fairy God shop. With their hearts in harmony, they shared the poem “Tay Ho Ngu Quan" which is still handed down today. No one knows how long the fairy god stayed here, only knowing that when Phung Khac Khoan returned to look for it, it was gone. To ease his nostalgia, he built a temple for the wise. That is the thrilling origin of Tay Ho government.
Architecture:
The architectural works of Tay Ho temple, including the gate made of the three-way gate, the main architecture of three folds (Three thrones of the Holy Mother); The main government has the largest scale. The front has a 2-story three-door gate, and the middle roof has the inscription “Historical Tay Ho", meticulously and elaborately decorated. The middle four doors in the upper part touch the four quarters, the lower part touches the four spirits, and the middle touches the long life. Through the three gates is a 2-story communal house with 8 roofs. The front house and the harem were built close to the communal house; Next is the Son Trang Palace with 3 floors, 8 curved roofs, the heart of the house has 2 floors, the upper floor is dedicated to Quan Am, the lower floor is 3 Son Trang caves occupying 3 spaces; The guest house, the Co, the Cau… The Phu Tay Ho relic still preserves a rather rich collection of relics with historical, cultural, and artistic values of the 19th and 20th centuries such as a set of near-circular statues. 300 pho, diaphragm, couplets… The most special thing is the great self-inscribed painting: “Thien Tien Tram Dec" (The Fairy God Appears) and the picture at the gate of the palace with the title: “Muu Nghi Thien Ha" (the mother of the whole family) world)

Impress travel were amazing. Did my bookings with Daniel for our tour of Vietnam and I must say Daniel was very professional and prompt with his services. All the arrangement, plans, pick-up & drop-off services, hotels, vehicles, sightseeing tours and guides were spot on and excellent. Did 4 nights Hanoi, 1 night Hà Long Bay cruise, 3 nights Hoian, 4 nights Saigon and 1 night in Can Tho. It was totally awesome. Every part of the journey was superbly arranged and planned. I will highly recommend Impress Travel for anyone interested in visiting Vietnam. Very organized and reliable!
At first, I was just planning a trip to Hanoi, Halong Bay, and Ninh Binh for my small family.
Some close friends heard about our plans and wanted to join the trip. Eventually the group grew to be 7 families, with 25 adults and children of varying interests and expectations.
While I was excited at the prospect of touring Vietnam with good friends, I felt anxiously responsible to ascertain that everything must be well organized and everyone satisfied. This is why I am so very, very glad to have found Impress Travel. Mr. Mark responded quickly to all my inquiries, customized a wonderful trip according to the group's preferences, tirelessly worked out every detail for our 7-day trip, all at a reasonable price. Our guide, Trung, is knowledgeable, helpful, quick to respond to any need, and well-loved by everyone in the group. All my friends found this a marvelous trip, filled with beautiful memories, very much to my delight and relief!
Mr Tommy, on behalf of our group, we thank you for your efforts in putting together such a memorable vacation and experience of Sapa, overnight train, Halong Bay, Hanoi + Bai Dinh, your tour guides are so knowledgeable, passionate + helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and we will certainly recommend your tour agency to our friends and share our experiences in social media.
Thumbs up, best regards,

It was amazing place to visit in the north of vietnam , we really enjoy all the trip especially their foods , culture, beautiful view and so on.
Accommodations were good especially Thang Long Espana Hotel (the Hotel Management automated upgraded us to VIP rooms.Is really unexpected). Overalled tours n places visited very well but only local guides r not good organizing the itineraries. Especially at Sapa Lao Cai and Cat Cat Villages walking tours push to the same day about 8hours for 7km (which is on 1st&2nd days arrival) so tiring. Lunch not good enough 4 so many hours of walking. In Danang Bana Hill the local guide shd arrange 2 visit Bana Hill 1st n not last coz' spend a short time n not nice photos taken due to rain (went in morning time no rain).
Overall tours, hotels, transportation, prices are strongly recommended. Especially Daniel Dang Impress Travel for welcoming and bye-bye wishes.
Daniel Dang tks from 8 of us having a wonderful time n memorable trip for 8D7N Sapa, Hanoi, Danang with Impress Travel. Meet u all again.
We are family of 6 from Singapore and Malaysia joining Hanoi Impress Travel on 30 October-04 November 2019. We are really impressed with the company and tour guides with their professionalism and well organised arrangement. Lily is our guide for Hanoi, Tam Coc and Ninh Binh. She is excellent and very informative. She even taking care of us until late night. We walk us from Old Quarters to the hotel and brought us to try the famous road side foods. She even helped us to pay for our order to avoid overcharge by the stall. Another guide, David BK (Swan Cruise) brought us to Halong Bay cruise. He is excellent and humorous. He handles everything throughout the trip. He served meals for guests on the cruise, organised happy hour, guiding us for Kayaking, teaching Taiji and cooking class on cruise. The cruise ship is ok and the hotel in Hanoi-Adamas Hotel is small but new and clean with reasonable ok breakfast. Anyway thank you for the wonderful arrangement.

Impress Travels has been very helpful in making our vietnam travel amazing. We were a bunch of 7 friends wanting to go on a budget trip covering most locations. Hence, this subjected to a lot of changes during our discussion with the tour guide Daniel.
However, he has been patient enough in hearing out our needs - be it itienary , hotel bookings or even the mode of payment.
They really understand your needs. And needless to say our experience was amazing. All of this support and help has really made our vietnam trip the most memorable as far ❤️
I was searching for a reliable travel agent and come across Impress Travel and the many reviews of them. I booked 5D/4N, Hanoi-Trang An-Halong Bay private trip for a party of 6. I communicated with Mr Daniel Dang throughout the time until the day we arrived. Mr Daniel is very patient, helpful, and accommodating to our requirements despite many changes made to the itinerary. The price is very reasonable unlike other travel agents.
Our tour guide, Lily was very friendly and efficientknowledgeable and speak good English.
Highly recommend “Trang An Boat Tour”. The caves was spectacular and beautifully.
2D/1N Halong Bay – Swan Cruise was awesome with amazing view of the cave. Our guide Mr David was hilarious, helpful, accommodating, and everything was well organized. Beside the normal
activities of kayaking, swimming, Tai Chi, culinary lesson, we are indeed very very fortunate to have
the chance to celebrate the “Mooncake Festival” while cruising and admiring the full moon.
Spread of mooncake, dessert, sweet snack, fruits, cocktail, beer and mini dragon dance complete the celebration. Tourists from all over the world party all night long.
Although we paid for a 3-star package, the hotel (Thang Long Espana Hotel), meals and transport provided were also above average. Our gang have a very enjoyable and memorable trip in Hanoi.
Impress Travel really impressed us with their service and will engage their service in future.
P/S:- Don’t worry, Impress Travel CAN be trusted.
Hanoi – Duong Lam - Halong Bay – Hue – Danang – Hoi An – Ho Chi Minh city – Mekong Delta – Cai Be – Vinh Long – Can Tho – Phu Quoc Island - Ho Chi Minh city.
It is worth talking about details, say what you want to see, watch the hotels, indicate which rooms you want, the office will organize everything for you. I highly recommend!
The whole trip was arranged with the active help of Mr. Daniel Dang.
Thanks to Mr Tommy and staff for putting together an active and interesting tour in all 3 countries. In every city or town we had we met by very nice, friendly and knowledgeable guides. We went in June which was HOT HOT HOT and were always so happy to have an air conditioned vehicle with cold water waiting for us. We traveled by planes, trains, automobiles and boats and all were fabulously coordinated by Mr Tommy without fail. The selection of sites helped us enjoy so many aspects of all 3 countries!
