Tien Chau Pagoda's official name is Di Da Tu or To Chau Pagoda. It is called Amitabha Temple because the pagoda worships Amitabha Buddha - the Patriarch of the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss. It is also called To Chau Pagoda because Binh Luong village (now Binh Luong hamlet, where the pagoda is located) in the past had willow trees casting shadows on the calm river, the scenery was beautiful and poetic, reminiscent of To Chau. - China. Tien Chau Pagoda was founded by Venerable Duc Hoi around the 19th century, with ancient architecture consisting of 4 roofs: front hall, main hall, middle hall and rear hall. The compartments are arranged in a four-pillar style, expanding both horizontally and vertically thanks to compacted and determined trusses. The truss set is made of precious wood, the roof is covered with yin and yang tiles. The pagoda's inner sanctum is beautifully arranged. In the middle of the four pillars is a large Amitabha Buddha statue. Behind the shrine of Amitabha Buddha is Maitreya Buddha, which is as large as the statue of Amitabha Buddha. On both sides of the Amitabha Buddha worship hall are places to worship Bodhisattva Tieu Dien Vuong, Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva, Jade Emperor, Thap Dien Minh Vuong, Nam Cao Bac Dau, Quan Thanh De Quan, and Chuan De Vuong Bodhisattva. The middle hall is a place to worship the Patriarchs Bodhidharma, Shakyamuni Buddha, Tripitaka, Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva, previous ancestors and good men and women who have passed away. This is also the place to receive guests, so there are many paintings promoting charity with parallel sentences full of profound meanings of the Buddha's realm.

They are very honest, community life is very harmonious, so this place is called Binh Luong village. The people of Binh Luong village mainly make a living by fishing and catching fish and shrimp. On a bright moonlit night, young men in the village rowed boats to the river to catch fish. On the dunes, in a small tent under a cork tree, an old man lay awake. Cool and chilly winds gently blow, carrying the faint scent of flowers and leaves, blending with the melodious symphony of insects sobbing in the ground. He looked out at the white sand sparkling under the moonlight and suddenly saw the blurry white silhouettes of many girls gracefully flying and playing on the sand - Fairy descended to earth! The story was spread in the village, then spread far and wide across the world. From then on, the sandy beach on this river section was called Bai Tien. Source: Vinh Long Tourism
