Phu Van Communal House

Phu Van Communal House worships the three Supreme Holy Deities of Tan Vien Son. Phu Van Communal House is located on a beautiful plot of land outside Phu Van village (now Phu Cuong hamlet, Phuc Son commune). According to historical records, at that time there were two married Nguyen brothers who remained childless for a long time; on spring days they often went to Mount Tan Linh and met an immortal who bestowed blessings. Not long afterwards, the elder brother's wife gave birth to a son named Nguyen Tuan, while the younger brother's wife gave birth to two sons named Sung Cong and Hien Cong. When they were 17 years old, their parents both died. After observing three years of mourning, the brothers went up the mountain together and became adopted children of a goddess surnamed Ma.

At that time, our country had the Thuc invaders; the king appointed the two men as Left and Right Grand Commanders, and the two helped the king defeat the invading army. After returning victorious, the king held a banquet to celebrate their merits and honored them as Cao Son Great King, Supreme Deity, and Quy Minh Great King, Supreme Deity.

Phu Van Communal House still preserves: one long throne and altar tablet worshipping the first Tan Vien Son deity, Nguyen Tung Cong; one long throne and statue of the second Tan Vien Son Saint, Nguyen Hien Cong; one double palanquin; two deity genealogical records; and eight royal edicts. The festival at Phu Van Communal House is held mainly on the 15th day of the first lunar month every year (traditionally every three years, with the periodic date being the 15th day of the first lunar month for friendly exchange among the former Bot Xuyen, Phu Van, and My Tien hamlets).

The communal house was ranked as a historical and cultural relic by the People's Committee of Ha Tay Province in 2005./. The communal house is currently undergoing restoration and embellishment.
