Quan Su Pagoda

Quan Su Pagoda is a temple at 73 Quan Su Street, Tran Hung Dao Ward, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi City. Previously, this area belonged to An Tap village, Co Vu ward, Tien Nghiem canton (later changed to Vinh Xuong canton), Tho Xuong district. Quan Su Pagoda was built in the 15th century, in 1942 it was rebuilt and in 1980 it became the central headquarters of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha. The book "La Citadel's Fairy Bay" compiled by Dr. Tran Ba ​​Lam in 1787 wrote that: around the reign of King Tran Du Tong (1341-1369), the court built an embassy to receive envoys from neighboring Champa countries. , Van Tuong and Ai Lao. Our dynasty still follows that routine. From the reign of Le Trung Hung onwards, envoys came to pay tribute to the local people and rested here... to build a temple to worship Buddha to protect them. From then on, they were safe and sound. People call it Quan Su pagoda. In 1942, Patriarch Vinh Nghiem approved the pagoda to be rebuilt according to the design of two architects Nguyen Ngoc Ngoan and Nguyen Xuan Tung, with architectural and decorative art combining the quintessence of the great pagodas of the North. The premises of the works follow the tradition of "internal work, foreign work". The three-story pagoda has three roof floors, in the middle is the bell tower. A very new feature is that here the pagoda's name as well as many parallel sentences are written in the national language. Going through the three-entrance gate and then through the front yard, visitors continue up 11 steps to reach the main hall. The Three Jewels Tower is built high and placed on the second floor, the lower floor is to insulate against moisture. The Buddha hall is solemnly decorated, the statues are all quite large in size and splendidly gilded. In the innermost part, worship the statues of three Buddhas of the Three Worlds on the highest step. The next step worships the Amitabha Buddha statue in the middle, on both sides there are statues of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara and Mahasthamaprapta. The steps below, in the middle, worship the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha, on both sides are the statues of Venerable Ananda and Kasyapa. The lowest, outermost level has the Cuu Long throne placed between the statues of Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara and King Ksitigarbha. The room on the right of the main hall worships Ly Quoc Su (also known as Zen Master Minh Khong) with two attendants, the room on the left worships the statue of Monsignor. The four sides surrounding Quan Su Pagoda are airy porches supported by square columns. Two long corridors are separated from Tam Bao with enough ventilation. The scent of frangipani flowers wafts everywhere. Quan Su Pagoda was recently restored and upgraded, mainly in the middle and rear areas. The main buildings and outbuildings are all built high and spacious, and the walls are still painted with yellow lime as before. The back hall consists of 3 floors, the middle floor is connected to the main hall through an open staircase. Quan Su Pagoda has a meeting hall, lecture hall and Buddhist library. The pagoda has enough space to house the office of the Vietnam Buddhist Research Institute and the office of the Asian Buddhist Organization for Peace (in Vietnam). The pagoda is also where the Executive Council office, the Evidence Council office and the international living room are located. Currently, the monks of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha, the Central Executive Council of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha and the monks, monks and nuns of the Central office of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha are all working at Quan Su Pagoda. Buddhist conferences at international and national levels are also often held here. During holidays and weekdays, the pagoda is also crowded with Buddhists and tourists.
