Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple

Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple has a history of about 120 years and is a place of worship for the people of the former Thuong Hoi village, now Thuong Hoi Residential Group, Long Bien Ward, Hanoi City. The communal house and temple worship Saint Tran Hung Dao, the Three Palaces Mother Goddess, and Duc Ba Ban Hat. During the resistance war against the French, the grounds of Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple were also a secret meeting place for the Viet Minh. Around 1966-1967, Company 6, Battalion 3 of Air Regiment 919, Air Defense and Air Force Service, was stationed at Thuong Hoi. Company 6 used Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple as a place to organize its kitchen and for activities and meetings. When a member of the Company died heroically, the very next day Uncle Ho secretly visited Thuong Hoi to commend and encourage the Company. In 1970, Company 6 once again returned to Thuong Hoi and used Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple as an operating base. This was also where the military supplies warehouse of General Depot 205 was stored when it was evacuated to the locality to serve combat. During the resistance war against the United States, Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple continued to be used as a place to organize kitchens for the Air Defense Regiment and special forces units stationed in the area. After peace was restored, Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple returned to being a place of spiritual activities for local people. Every year, the people of Thuong Hoi organize a festival at the relic on the 9th and 10th days of the third lunar month, on the occasion of the Hung Kings' Commemoration Day.

In 2023, Thuong Hoi Communal House and Temple was ranked as a historical relic by the Hanoi City People's Committee under Decision No. 5829/QD-UBND dated November 14, 2023.
