The pagoda was built in the 12th century during the reign of King Ly Cao Tong (1176-1210). This is one of the few pagodas dating back to the Ly Dynasty until today. The pagoda is built on a high hill, with luxuriant trees, windy on all four sides, beautiful scenery, quiet, full of solitude, a place of meditation. In the past, this area was called Tieu Dao Mountain, and is commonly called Cam Forest, perhaps that's why the pagoda is famous as Cam Pagoda. According to inscriptions and genealogies, the pagoda has existed for a long time. In the 12th century, the crown prince, son of King Ly Cao Tong, donated more than a hundred acres of fields, two thousand francs of money to repair the pagoda, and 700 francs of merit for a banquet. worship easily. Assign martial general Nguyen to directly direct and mobilize donations to repair the pagoda.

The military general of the Nguyen family also had the merit of a thousand francs to buy more than a hundred acres of fields to donate to the pagoda for farming. In the 14th century under the reign of King Tran Anh Tong, Bao An Pagoda was given a lot of money to repair and embellish by Princess Hung Nuong. To remember his merits, like many other pagodas in the area, people built a shrine to Princess Hung Nuong in the pagoda. Having gone through the ups and downs of thousands of years of history, Bao An Pagoda is still at the old campus but has had many changes. Ancient architectural buildings such as the front hall, incense burner, upper palace, ancestral house, Hung Nuong princess shrine and mother shrine were demolished due to deterioration. Currently, the pagoda has been renovated and rebuilt on a large scale, with reinforced concrete architecture and tiled roof. The pagoda also preserves valuable relics and antiques such as: Dharma statues, altars, bronze bells, and stone stele. Among them, the most typical is the stone stele "Bao An Zen Tu Bi Bi Ky" (inscription of Bao An Pagoda's stele). Up to now, according to review, survey and statistical data, this is the only Ly Dynasty stele remaining in the province. The stele was engraved in December of the year Tri Binh Long Ung (1209) and re-engraved later, probably at the end of the 18th century, placed at Bao An pagoda. The stele was mentioned and published by many researchers in Ly Tran Poetry (Social Sciences Publishing House, H.1977) and Ly Dynasty Epitaph (VNU Publishing House, H.2010). This is the oldest stele in Vinh Phuc and one of the 18 Ly Dynasty stelae remaining in our country today. The stele is 1.4m high, 0.85m wide, 0.14m thick, placed on the back of a smooth-shelled stone turtle, its head protruding, its four-clawed feet spread out in all four directions. The stele is engraved on both sides with 50 lines including 1498 Chinese - Nom characters, sharp handwriting in the style of Ly Dynasty script, very beautiful.

This. According to Nguyen Huu Mui (Research on Vinh Phuc Inscriptions, 2013), although the epitaph is still full of exaggeration, the image of a Ly Dynasty pagoda is clearly shown: the pagoda was restored by just one person. , the scale of the pagoda is large, inside the pagoda there are Buddha statues and lotus flowers, outside the pagoda there are bells and openings; The pagoda owns a lot of land and has a Thich Giao Zen Association (a type of Buddhist association, offering temple protection) to manage the meditation area. Based on this stele, it can be seen that the construction and restoration of pagodas took place on Vinh Phuc land since the Ly dynasty. The construction and restoration of pagodas was encouraged, not prohibited, by the royal court and assigned to the mandarins and aristocracy to preside and organize. The construction and restoration of pagodas is also considered an important event in the spiritual life of the people, attracting the whole region and even the whole country to join in the merit. This proves that during the peak development of Buddhism during the Ly Dynasty, Vinh Phuc area was also a popular center of this religion. The special thing is that among the nearly 1,500 words on the stele, there are mixed Nom words, these Nom words are used to write people's names and land names. It is said that this is one of the oldest evidences of Nom script found in Vietnam. Before this stele, traces of a few Nom characters were only found in two places: on the bell of Van Ban pagoda, Hai Phong (year 1076), and in an inscription at the pagoda of Huong Non commune, Tam Nong district, Phu Tho province. (year 1173). Bao An Pagoda was ranked as a provincial historical-cultural relic in 1995. In the period 2021 - 2025, Vinh Phuc province plans to build a scientific dossier to request recognition of the National Treasure for the pagoda steles. Bao An and upgrading the national monument ranking for Bao An Pagoda relics, these are activities to further strengthen the management, conservation and promotion of heritage values.

Huong Canh was originally the name of a commune of An Lang district, Son Tay town in the Later Le dynasty, then was taken as the general name of the Nguyen dynasty and the name of today's town - Huong Canh town (in Binh Xuyen district, Vinh Phuc province). According to folklore, Huong Canh is also called Tam Canh because this is the common name of three Canh villages including: Huong Canh, Ngoc Canh, Tien Canh. The place name Huong Canh also has the ancient name Ke Canh. This name comes from the local rice variety, which has two pointed rays on both sides of the grain. People call those two sharp rays WINGS and the grain of rice is called WINGS, taking the word WING as the name of the village. Initially, there was only one Huong Canh village here. Gradually, the population grew and the village was separated and named Ngoc Canh - a place with Gie Canh rice, rice grains as beautiful as pearls.

Ha Tien Pagoda was built in the year of Quy Mui (1703), the 24th year of Chinh Hoa, during the reign of King Le Hy Tong Duy Hiep. From ancient times until now, tourists and Buddhists from near and far, when coming to Ha Tien Pagoda, not only burn incense and pray to Buddha but also sincerely worship before the Holy Mother to pray for peace in the country and people and a peaceful life. According to ancient books, the pagoda is located in the "mountain and water" position, on both sides there are large mounds of earth shaped like dragons and white tigers. When the country was invaded by foreign invaders, Mrs. Lang Thi Tieu, on her way to join forces with King Hung Vuong 7, saw a strange situation, so she stopped to recruit soldiers. Later, she was honored as National Mother Tay Thien. To commemorate her, people set up an altar tablet at the pagoda, called the Holy Great King. Ha Tien Pagoda is a place to worship the Three Jewels and also worship the National Mother. Ha Tien Pagoda also has another name: "Rain Praying Pagoda". In the past, the area often suffered from drought. People who rely on agriculture fall into hunger. The abbot of the pagoda at that time, Tinh Huan, built an altar to pray for rain. Furthermore, the monk vowed to self-immolate to pray for rain for the people on the 30th day of the 5th lunar month. After making a vow before the three jewels and heaven and earth, he sat in the lotus position and then immolated himself to worship the gods and pray for the people. On June 1, after a day of self-immolation, it rained heavily and lasted for 3 consecutive days. And since then, every year on the anniversary of the founder's death, it often rains. Deeply remembering the gratitude of the true monk, the people built a three-story stupa to store his ashes. Currently in the pagoda's tomb garden there are 8 towers. Most of the stupas are still intact with 3 main floors. The towers are about 3m high, have 4 sides, built of red bricks bonded with materials from tree resin combined with clay. Although all eight towers keep the treasured bodies of monks, Tinh Huan's tower is more special because it is covered by a birth tree. The perennial tree is still green and has many roots, covering nearly all three sides of the stupa. In the pagoda there is also an ancient well (Jade well) with cool water. In the past, during the drought season, all the other wells dried up, but the old well still had water, so people in the village had to go to the old well to draw water. The well of Ha Tien Pagoda is "clear and blue, with magical water veins", so the ancients still compared it: "No matter who is as ugly as a ghost/ Drinking the water of Ha Pagoda is as beautiful as a fairy". Every year, on major holidays, visitors from all over come to the temple to worship Buddha and ask for water from Ngoc well, bring it back to burn incense and drink gradually, especially in the early days of spring. People believe that having ancient well water to use during Tet will bring good luck. With the historical and cultural values outlined above, Ha Tien Pagoda was decided by the People's Committee of Vinh Phu province (now Vinh Phuc) to rank it as a provincial-level Historical and Cultural relic in 1995.
