Cong Dinh Pagoda

The pagoda has a fairly early construction history. Based on the pagoda's earliest stele bearing the Canh Hung 7th era name (1746) and the imperial edict conferring a title on the deity Cay Gao Dai Vuong bearing the Canh Hung 1st era name (1740), it can be affirmed that Cong Dinh Pagoda was built during the Le Dynasty.

The pagoda faces west and is structured in the shape of the Chinese character ding, consisting of a front hall and an upper sanctuary. Surrounding the pagoda are a courtyard and garden with many ornamental plants, small pine trees, and horizontal and vertical rows of buildings such as the ancestral house and the Mother house. Cong Dinh Pagoda still preserves quite a few Buddha statues, and most notably the set of Three Worlds statues representing the eternal permanence of the Buddhas in the past, present, and future. Linh Quang Pagoda was ranked as an Architectural and Artistic Relic by the Ministry of Culture, Information and Sports in 1992.
