Dinh Dau and Ngo Temple

Dinh Dau and Ngo Temple

Ngo Temple worships Hai Ba Trung, the first Vietnamese woman to raise the flag of insurrection to drive invaders out of the country and regain independence for the country. The temple was built by our ancestors right at the beginning of the village in a spacious campus, open to all four winds, with a harmonious, solemn and magnificent landscape. The front of the temple has a semicircular lotus pond, printed with a large screen with scroll shapes shaped like flags, swords, dragons, cups, and phoenixes. In front of the temple gate are two large, tall square pillars engraved with two lines of parallel sentences: - Phong District's veteran veteran is majestic and clear in the North. - The incense garden preserves the eternal relics of Tran Nam Bang. The idea is: (The victory of the Chau Phong insurgent army resounded to heaven and earth The fragrance of the two ladies is famous forever.) Next are two floors of statues, in which are carved images of a pair of war elephants - Two Ladies riding elephants into battle. Inside the Temple, there are horizontal panels, couplets, tablets, sacrificial objects... all painted in red and gilded, overwhelming the colors. The harem has two ancient altar thrones and statues of the Two Kings and Ladies sitting in the large coffin. The statue is about one meter high, with exquisite and unique sculpted lines. With a forward posture, the statue's two arms are raised to eye level, a sign of the word Trang Khoat, seducing the three armies, holding the mountains and rivers firmly. The statue of the Two Ladies is resplendent in pink attire, radiating a halo of shimmering candle lights. Ngo Temple still retains 18 ordinations passed through dynasties since the reign of Le Canh Hung. Those are extremely valuable documents. In August 1945, Ngo Temple was the place where a large rally took place after the Van Giang district government was seized, declaring the end of the old regime and the new government returning to the people. Many years have passed, after many restorations and embellishments, Ngo temple still retains its ancient appearance. In 1989, the Ministry of Culture recognized Ngo Temple as a national historical-cultural relic, protected by the State. The historical site of Ngo Temple is forever associated with the historical sites of Dong Chau, Gieng Da, and Bai Yen. Those places marked great feats of a historical period, recognizing the efforts of the Phung Cong people who followed the Hai Ba Trung uprising. Dinh Dau was built at the same time as Ngo Temple and worshiped Hai Ba Trung - National Heroes. Dinh Dau is big, beautiful, windy, rural, ancient, mossy, filled with colors over the years. The gate of the communal house is hung with hanging lanterns and two rows of parallel sentences reminding posterity to cherish order. The pavilion curves upward toward the three mountains in the style of four sacred animals adoring the moon, covering the pre-ceremony and harem areas. The middle of the ceremony area is filled with incense burners, has a crane top, an incense burner... Above is hung a gilded hammock door. Four large horizontal panels spread across the pavilion, bearing 4 lines of text: Thanh Vuong Palace Eternal heroic spirit Thang Long determines the peak Righteousness and light All have summarized the sacred and respectful appearance of the communal house. On both sides of the ceremony area are two majestic and solemn rows of Eight Treasures and golden swords. The harem has statues of the Two Kings carved from precious stones following the national model at Dong Nhan temple - Hanoi. Around the communal house, there are many ancient trees that are hundreds of years old, providing shade and the quiet communal house marks the mark of time. In the early years of peace and the years of resistance against America, Dau Communal House was the venue for many commune-level Party Congresses and many important conferences of Van Giang district. In 1970, also at Dinh Dau, the Ministry of Health of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam organized a conference of medical leaders in the entire North, chaired by Minister Pham Ngoc Thach, to decide on major medical policies during the period. period of building socialism and fighting against America to save the country. Dinh Dau had 18 conferments throughout the dynasties and also began in the Le Dynasty. In 1989, the Ministry of Culture issued a ranking certificate recognizing Dau communal house as a national historical and cultural relic.
