Am Pagoda (Quan Am Tu)
Introduction
The pagoda is located in Cham Village, Binh Minh Commune, former Thanh Oai District, Hanoi City, now belonging to Binh Da 1 Village, Binh Minh Commune, Hanoi City. The relic is located in Binh Da Village, possessing the peaceful landscape characteristic of Northern Delta rural villages.
Literary name (Courtesy name): The pagoda's official literary name is Quan Am Tu. Because it worships the main deity, Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, local people since ancient times have familiarly abbreviated it as Am Pagoda.
The pagoda is a spiritual establishment worshipping the Buddha according to Mahayana Buddhist tradition. In particular, the statue system emphasizes and honors Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara - the Bodhisattva of great compassion and mercy, who always listens to cries of suffering to save sentient beings. In addition, the pagoda still fully co-worships Bodhisattvas, Dharma Protectors, Duc Ong, and Patriarchs in accordance with the standard arrangement of Northern Vietnamese pagodas.
Quan Am Pagoda was recognized as a city-level historical and cultural relic in February 2026, along with other relics in Binh Minh Commune such as: Linh Quang Pagoda, Thuong Thanh Communal House, Cao Mat Thuong Shrine.
