Ne Chau Pagoda

Ne Chau Pagoda

Ne Chau Pagoda's literal name is. "Thuy Ung Tu", associated with the name of Mrs. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Thanh, wife of King Le Dai Hanh. The pagoda is located in Ne Chau village, Hong Nam commune, Tien Lu district, Hung Yen province. Legend has it that Ne Chau Pagoda was built in the Early Le Dynasty (10th century) on a small initial scale. When the Le Hoan insurgent army stationed here to fight against foreign Song invaders, he built a new pagoda on the land of Phuong Cai village (today Ne Chau village), replacing the old ruined pagoda. When the pagoda was completed, Phuong Cai villagers could not afford to pay the workers. Le Hoan taught that "If any village has enough money to pay workers, the pagoda belongs to that village." At that time, the villagers of Ne Chau asked for help from Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Thanh's family, so they were able to pay the workers, and the pagoda belonged to Ne Chau village from then on. Le Hoan loved the beautiful Ngoc Thanh so he married her. During this time, she contributed her efforts, helping the insurgents hide food and provisions, and taking care of logistics. Defeating the enemy, Le Hoan ascended the throne, but she did not follow the king to Hoa Lu but asked to stay in her homeland to take care of her elderly parents. After her death, the king built a temple opposite Ne Chau pagoda and ordained her as "Queen Ngoc Thanh". Through the dynasties, Ne Chau pagoda was embellished, the most recent time was during the Nguyen dynasty, Bao Dai Nguyen year (1926). By 1992, Ne Chau Pagoda was ranked as a national historical and cultural relic. In 2005, within the framework of the project to repair Pho Hien ancient relics phase II, Ne Chau pagoda continued to be restored according to the original. The pagoda was built in the style of "Foreign Internal Cong" with many items, of which 3 prominent items are: Front Hall, Upper Palace and two corridors. The Tien Duong House of Ne Chau Pagoda consists of 7 compartments, designed in a simple truss style. On both sides of the gable there are two tall bronze columns, on the top of the columns are two cows facing each other. Above, in the middle of the roof, there are three Chinese characters "Thuy Ung Tu" embossed. All decorative patterns in the Tien Duong house are carved with images of two dragons flanking the moon and stylized flowers and leaves, imbued with the culture of the Le Dynasty. The Upper Palace's architecture resembles Tien Duong. Inside the Upper Palace, there are beautiful worship statues with high sculptural artistic value, among which the Tam The and Tuyet Son statues stand out. The statue of Tam The is carved from wood, in a meditating position on a lotus flower, with a kindly smiling face. The lotus faces are engraved with images of flowers and some Buddhist stories. Notably, all three Tam The statues lean back on a wooden leaf shaped like a tablet. Unlike the Tam The statue, the Tuyet Son statue is carved in a contemplative sitting position, with both hands clasped on the knees. This is an ancient statue from the Le Dynasty, the embodiment of Shakyamuni Buddha during his cultivation period on Tuyet Son Mountain. The two corridors of Ne Chau Pagoda are located symmetrically, with hundreds of statues with different postures and facial expressions, fully depicting Buddhist stories. Particularly, the temple dedicated to Mrs. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Thanh (located opposite Ne Chau Pagoda) has a Dinh-style architecture including 3 pre-sacrificing rooms and 2 back palace rooms. The temple has a lotus-shaped architectural structure, carved with stylized patterns, bearing the architectural style of the Nguyen Dynasty. Every year, Ne Chau Pagoda often holds sacrifices on the 15th day of the first month and the 15th day of the 8th lunar month to commemorate the birth and death of Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Thanh.
