Duzhu Temple is not far from the southwest side of Bating Square. It was built in 1049 and rebuilt in 1955. The second king of Li Chao, Vietnam, dreamed that Guanyin was standing on the lotus pond with a baby. In 1954, the French army destroyed the temple when it retreated, leaving only stone pillars left, and the following year it was rebuilt.

Duzhu Temple is one of Vietnam's unique monuments. It is located southwest of Hanoi Bating Square and is named after a large stone pillar built in Lingmochi. It is rumored that Li Chao Li Taizong in 1049 dreamed of Guanyin Bodhisattva holding a baby and standing on the lotus platform of the pool. Soon after Li Taizong's old age, he ordered the imitation of the water lotus temple, so Duzhu Temple is like a water lotus. The original temple was blown up when France withdrew in 1954, leaving only stone pillars. In 1955, it was rebuilt in the original site. The scale is smaller than the original building, but its artistic style is still retained.

beautiful pagoda.

Duzhu Temple is the most distinctive temple in Hanoi. As its name implies, the whole building is built on a huge pillar 1.25 meters in diameter. The pillar is built in the lake. The temple is connected to the land through a stone bridge, which looks like a lotus flower coming out of the water from afar. The temple is built of high-grade timber, and the details are very elaborate. It is said to be quite effective, so incense is very vigorous.
