Tế Xuyên Shrine

Tế Xuyên Shrine is named after the hamlet and is located in Tế Xuyên Hamlet, Phù Đổng Commune.

Tế Xuyên Shrine was ranked as a Historical and Artistic Architectural Relic in 1992 by a decision issued by the Ministry of Culture, Information and Sports (now the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism).

Tế Xuyên Shrine is dedicated to Đỗ Trung, a local deity credited with service to the country during our nation’s struggle against foreign invaders in the 14th century; he was also credited with recruiting people to establish the hamlet and founding Tế Xuyên Village.

Tế Xuyên Shrine has a small architectural scale consisting of a forehall, a main hall, and a rear sanctuary. Over its existence to the present, Tế Xuyên Shrine has preserved a rich system of relics made of various materials: stone steles, a system of royal edicts conferring deity titles, worship objects, and more.

Every year, on the 9th day of the 2nd lunar month, the people of Tế Xuyên solemnly organize a festival to commemorate the merits of the revered tutelary deity.

Tế Xuyên Shrine together with the village festival cultural space represents heritage values that generations of local people have preserved, passed down, and promoted, contributing to enriching cultural and spiritual life and to traditional education for present and future generations.
