Chau Hung Pagoda

Chau Hung Pagoda

Chau Hung Pagoda is located at 37 Cay Keo Street, Quarter 1, Tam Phu Ward, Thu Duc City. Established in 1884 with a simple structure, it has been restored and repaired many times. The pagoda was completely newly built in 2006 and completed in 2009, with a construction area of ​​365 square meters on a total area of ​​5,796 square meters. Before April 30, 1975, Chau Hung Pagoda was built on Go Cat land, surrounded by rice and morning glory fields. This is a red address, used to be a facility to hide guerrilla cadres and soldiers to stand at the gateway of Saigon. The monks, monks, and abbots here are people who always have revolutionary aspirations. The undercover forces in this area always use the temple as their base of operations. In early 1973, when the Paris Agreement was signed, the enemy gathered troops to protect Saigon, so the Northern Thu Duc battlefield at that time was like a pocket containing enemy units to block the northeast direction of Saigon, preventing the enemy's forces from attacking the enemy. Our forces sent troops down to attack Saigon, so they continuously organized sweeps and cleared the terrain. At this time, our forces had a very difficult time holding on. The pagoda was built according to the structure of Vietnamese culture, creating cool ventilation and harmony between people and nature. With separate architecture such as the living room, the house of rebirth and the temple grounds with many types of ornamental plants and rockeries. The pagoda has a two-letter floor plan structure and a gate built in the form of a three-entrance gate. Seen from the outside, the pagoda is built of reinforced concrete with the main yellow color of Buddhism, including two separate towers: Tower 1: Is the front of the pagoda above the front hall. The tower has 2 floors and at the top of the tower is attached a Dharma wheel. In the middle of the 2nd floor is written "Chau Hung Co Tu" in Chinese characters. The lower floor is written "Chau Hung Pagoda" in the national language, and on both sides there are two pairs of parallel sentences in Chinese characters. The ground floor is the main hall door, only open on major holidays or full moon days of the month. Tower 2: Has 2 floors, higher than tower 1, on both sides of the tower are the words "Van" and "Buddha" in Chinese characters. Chau Hung Pagoda is a religious facility with cultural and historical value, ranked as a City-level relic on August 18, 2011. Like other temples, Chau Hung Pagoda is a place for people and believers to find encouragement, comfort, and relieve pressure in life; is a place to wish and wish for a good future, and at the same time is also a place to teach people to know how to live a good life. Although the pagoda has been restored many times with solid materials, the ancient pagoda is no longer valuable, but in the pagoda there are still 14 ancient statues, 4 dragons and a horizontal plate engraved with 4 words " The group of seals and lights has existed for a long time. Not only that, Chau Hung Pagoda also contributed significantly to the struggle for national liberation. Through two long resistance wars, the pagoda has sheltered, cared for, and sheltered countless generations of officers and soldiers in fierce bomb and bullet situations. Many Buddhists of the pagoda were suspected by the enemy or arrested and brutally beaten and tortured. However, the Buddhists of the pagoda still stood firm in the face of many difficulties and challenges and were a solid base of operations for the revolution until the day of national unification.
