Huyen Thien Quan Pagoda

Huyen Thien Quan Pagoda

Huyen Thien Quan Pagoda was originally a Taoist pagoda, then converted into a pagoda at the end of the Le Dynasty, currently at 54 Hang Khoai Street. Legend has it that Huyen Thien restaurant was established during the Ly dynasty and soon became famous as one of the "Thang Long Tu restaurants" of Taoism (the other three restaurants include: De Thich restaurant, now King pagoda on Thinh Yen street; Chan Vu restaurant, ie Quan Thanh Temple on Quan Thanh Street; Dong Thien Quan, now Kim Co Pagoda on Duong Thanh Street). At the end of the Le Dynasty, Taoism declined, the shop was converted into a pagoda. The project was renovated and repaired many times and had its architecture shaped since the end of the Nguyen Dynasty in Huyen Thien village, Hau Tuc district, Tho Xuong district. There are two major holidays here on March 3 and September 9 of the lunar calendar every year. Quan Huyen Thien was originally a place to worship Huyen Thien God, the northern god worshiped at Quan Thanh temple. This worship practice appeared in our country since the Northern colonial period. In the shop there is a statue of him made of agarwood. When Taoism declined and Buddhism flourished, the villagers brought the Buddha statue to worship together, and from then on it was also known as Quan Huyen Thien Pagoda or Huyen Thien Temple. The epitaph "Light up Huyen Thien bi minh" in the 10th year of Vinh To clearly states "...This belongs to Dong Xuan ward, Tho Xuong district, Phung Thien... the name is Huyen Thien ancient restaurant... The east side touches the white Nhi Ha river , the west looks to the blue Tan mountain, the south has the bridge (Ha Kieu) and the north has Hong Phuc pagoda, what a wonderful place... The restaurant dates back to the Le Dynasty in the 7th year of Thieu Binh (1439). The stele also says that at that time (in 1628), there were 13 rooms to worship Buddha, Mother Goddess and Huyen Thien. The stele built in the 6th year of Canh Tri (1668) under the reign of King Le Huyen Tong records: The restaurant was decorated with statues, restored three gates, bell tower, corridor, incense burner, upper palace, similar to the style of large pagodas of the Tran dynasty. -Pear. In addition, they were able to "cast a new bell and engrave the book "Holy Taoism and Classics", all four volumes kept at the village. This large-scale restoration was issued by Lord Trinh himself, so there were concubines in the lord's palace and mandarins in the court who contributed merit. In the 1st year of Canh Thinh (1793) during the Tay Son period, the pagoda was restored and the bell was cast. During the Nguyen Dynasty, the pagoda built 7 more back houses in the 21st year of Tu Duc (1868). In the early 20th century, when the French colonialists filled in the lake and expanded the streets, the pagoda shrank. In the 5th year of Bao Dai's reign (1930), most of the pagoda's buildings were rebuilt and shaped into their present form. In the days of resistance in early 1947, the pagoda was destroyed and the statue of Huyen Thien was burned. In 1948, local people and visitors from abroad donated to restore the pagoda according to the old layout of "domestic Cong, foreign nationality". From the outside, it includes the Nghi Mon gate, the bell tower, through the yard to two stele houses, two ancient wells and a 7-compartment worship house built in a gazebo style with 2 floors and 8 roofs, where the god Huyen Thien is worshiped. The incense burner runs along like an upper palace, connecting with two horizontal houses behind. Adjacent to the two gables are two corridors, now used as guest houses. In 2014, the pagoda was restored again after many years of encroachment and degradation. On both sides of the front yard of the worship house, there are 2 large stone stele placed in the stele house. The ancient stele bearing the 6th year of Canh Tri (1668) has a broken surface, many words are no longer there. The Arabic version was printed by the Academy of the Far East before 1945, and is currently kept at the Institute of Sino-Nom Studies. The stele shows the architectural scale of the pagoda at that time and many other information. In addition, there are 40 different large and small steles engraved with Han Nom characters on the walls along both sides of the hall and main hall. There is an article describing the bell weighing 500kg, 1m60 high, cast in the 1st year of Canh Thinh (1793) hanging in the bell tower behind the gate. Like other Tay Son period inscriptions, the Canh Thinh chronology here was erased during the Nguyen dynasty. There are dozens of national language epitaphs, mainly engraved after 1954. In the pagoda, there are also systems of Buddhist statues, Saint statues, Mother Goddess statues, Taoist statues, along with beautiful offerings and decorations. The Buddha hall behind the worship hall is solemnly installed with many wooden statues of artistic value such as statues of Bodhisattvas Avalokiteshvara, Mahasthamaprapta, Manjushri, Samantabhadra and 3m high statues of two Dharma Protectors, etc. ... The Mother Palace in the harem is fully decorated according to folk beliefs. Quan Huyen Thien Pagoda was ranked as a National Architectural and Artistic Monument in 2008.
