Glad to be back with the Hive community. When work or life is tiring, what do people usually do to reduce stress? Traveling is the choice of many people. However, tourist destinations are often crowded and noisy, many people do not like that. So when you need to be quiet, where do you choose to go? Some people can choose a quiet book cafe to read good books, some people choose to go camping in the forest... Everyone has a lot of options for themselves, I like to choose for myself. My quiet place is a certain temple, a place away from the noisy city, where I can blend in with nature, a place for me to be quiet and calm. Referring to Hue, people can immediately think of a spiritual tourist destination, Hue is famous for hundreds of large and small temples ranging from temples in the city to those in the suburbs. Regardless of location, the common feature is that it is very quiet here, very suitable for you when you want to find a peaceful place. Today I will take you to two temples that I had the opportunity to visit while in Hue.
Located more than 10km from Hue city center, surrounded by large pine forests and majestic mountains is Huyen Khong Son Thuong Pagoda. Huyen Khong Son Thuong Pagoda is located in Cham hamlet, Huong Ho ward, Huong Ha town, Hue city. Because the pagoda is not far from Hue city and the road is also convenient, you can easily come here to Hue. If you come here early in the morning when the temple is still hidden in the early morning mist, this place is like a fairyland. You will be surprised when you come here because it is full of gardens, fish ponds, flower gardens like a watercolor painting. Because it is surrounded by mountains and forests, it is not always cool when staying at the temple, you can hear birds singing all day or the sound of insects making your soul feel relaxed. I am quite impressed that there are many kinds of flowers in the temple, all flowers are beautiful and fragrant. The frame of the temple is very wide, so you can comfortably hang out in one session. Because the temple is a sacred and quiet place, when you come to the temple, you should dress modestly and do not make noise. If you are tired and need a quiet place, Huyen Khong Son Thuong is a place not to be missed when coming to Hue.
If Huyen Khong Son Thuong is a peaceful place you can visit anytime if you are in Hue, there is a place you must plan before you want to visit. This place is located in the middle of a large lake more than 40 km from Hue city, which is Truc Lam Bach Ma Zen Monastery. Truc Lam Bach Ma Zen Monastery is located in the heart of Truoi lake in Phu Loc district, Thua Thien Hue province. The pagoda is about 10km from the national highway, the way to the temple is also quite convenient. However, because the pagoda is located in the middle of Truoi lake, you have to take a boat to get to the temple. The boat transfer service here is also affordable, so you can rest assured when choosing to travel here. In addition to taking a boat, you have to go nearly 200 steps to reach the temple, you should be prepared to overcome these stairs. When you reach the gate of the temple, you will forget your fatigue because of the vast monastic scene located majestically in the middle of mountain nature. Standing on the campus of the monastery overlooking the lake, like a large mirror reflecting the sky. Coming to the monastery is like being immersed in nature, immersing in the scenery of a fairyland. A place where the soul can relax, forget the fatigue and worries of life. The beauty of the monastery cannot be described in words, you should come here once to immerse yourself in the majestic natural scenery, listen to the birdsong, enjoy the cool air all year round, and see the giant Buddha statue. If you have the opportunity, you should come to Truc Lam Bach Ma Zen Monastery, this place really will not disappoint you.
