Hoang Muoi Temple Festival 2009
Hoang Muoi Temple was built during the Le Dynasty (17th century) in Hung Thinh Commune (Hung Nguyen), a place to worship the gods who have contributed to "protecting the country and protecting the people".
The temple has beautiful landscape and architecture, associated with the spiritual and cultural life of the people. In recent years, the temple has been restored with donations from benefactors and organizations inside and outside the province.
