Tien Truong Communal House, Xuan Mai Commune, Hanoi City

Tien Truong Communal House is a relic ranked by the People's Committee of Ha Tay Province in Decision No. 1516/QDUB
October 21, 2005. According to the “Than Pha” (Divine Genealogy) of Tien Truong Village, in the time of King Hung Due
Vuong, the Xich Ty enemy rose up, occupied the land, divided the territory, and massacred the
people. The mid-ranking deity Do Uy had the merit of leading soldiers to defeat the enemy; after
he died, King Le Dai Hanh, around the Thien Phuc era (980-988), had the hundred deities
examined, saw that he manifested miraculous efficacy, and conferred on him the beautiful title of Pho Ma Dung
Phu Hien Chieu Cam, rank of Uu Trung Dang deity; the King bestowed on him the title of Tutelary Deity
who blesses and protects our people. Permission was granted for Tien Sai village (now Tien Truong Village
today) to worship the deity. Tien Truong Communal House has existed since then; every year the people organize
the deity's birthday and death anniversary, and the Tien Truong Communal House festival has since been passed down to
this day.
