Kim Lan Pagoda
Introduction
Kim Lan Pagoda (located in Hamlet 1, Kim Lan, Bat Trang Commune) is a city-level architectural and artistic relic officially recognized in 2003. It is an ancient Zen temple located in Hamlet 1, Kim Lan, in an ancient land with a rich archaeological and cultural heritage; the pagoda preserves many rare artifacts such as ancient stone steles, stupa tombs, and a system of exquisitely carved Buddha statues of profound artistic value through the feudal dynasties. After a long period of weathering, the temple's wooden frame structure shows signs of deterioration. To promptly prevent further damage, the commune authorities are actively petitioning and proposing to prepare a planning dossier for a project to restore and embellish the entire relic using the commune budget and lawful social mobilization. Preserving Kim Lan Pagoda is of great importance in maintaining a sustainable spiritual and cultural space for local residents.
