Vu Noi Pagoda (Linh Khanh Temple)

Vu Noi Pagoda was built to satisfy the cultural and spiritual needs of the majority of residents in Vu Noi village. People come to the pagoda to pray for good things, for health, and for family peace and happiness. The elders recount that in the past, one year the village experienced a great flood; the water rose high and swept away houses, so people had to flee to the Nam Dong area for shelter. After one night, the next morning they saw a Buddha statue drift into the Dong; the village elders had the statue carried in procession and then established a pagoda at Dong Chua, the highest place, for worship. Since the pagoda was established to worship Buddha, the villagers' livelihoods became very prosperous. Later, because the pagoda was far from the village and inconvenient for worship, and the pagoda was still small and simple, the elders and villagers decided to move it to the central area in the middle of the village.

This is a Buddhist architectural work worshipping Buddha according to Mahayana Buddhism, so it is classified as an artistic relic - pagoda type.

Vu Noi Pagoda currently has a Dinh-shaped layout including: Tien Duong (Front Hall) and Thuong Dien (Upper Hall). The pagoda was built facing west on a high, spacious plot of land in the middle of Vu Noi village. Currently, Vu Noi Pagoda is located adjacent to the village communal house.

- 17 statues are arranged in the Tam Bao (Three Jewels Hall) and the Tien Duong (Front Hall).
