In the third month of Dinh Hoi year, the 5th year of Chinh Long Bao Ung (1167) under Ly Anh Tong, this pagoda was renamed Than Quang pagoda.

Hong, Xuan Truong district, Nam Dinh); A part settled in the Northeast - left bank of the Red River (now in Hanh Dung Nghia village, Duy Nhat commune, Vu Thu district, Thai Binh province).
