The Perfume Pagoda is one of the highlights of the Hanoi area and one of the most important religious sites in Buddhist Vietnam. Every spring, after the Vietnamese New Year, thousands of Vietnamese pilgrims come here to pray for all the health and prosperity they need to get them through the year. The pagoda itself is built into limestone cliffs and can only be reached by boat and foot, as there are no roads into this area. You will glide along scenic waterways and walk up steep mountain paths visiting the pagodas and temples that were built in this area over the last centuries.
In the morning, your driver will provide pick-up at your hotel or from the tour company's office between 7:45 and 8:00 am. You will then depart for the Perfume Pagoda. Your car will embark on a wandering journey through rustic Vietnamese villages and rice paddies. Then, a short walk to Yen Wharf, where you will board a boat to visit the beautiful Trinh Temple. Legend has it that the site was discovered by a monk over 2000 years ago. Over the ages, many of its sister temples have been destroyed, and today only seven remain. After touring the temple, it is a short trek to the main cave on the top of mountain, where you will find a collection of holy statues.
In the afternoon, you will enjoy a traditional lunch at a local restaurant. After eating, you will visit the beautiful Thien Tru Pagoda for worship, then head back to Yen Wharf, where you will board the boat back to the car. As you ride through the rice fields on the way back to Hanoi, reflect on the generations of worshippers that have made the same pilgrimage. This day tour will show you a side of Vietnam few people see.
