Here are three sacred temples near Hanoi that are perfect for a peaceful spring pilgrimage.

Visitors to Hanoi are likely familiar with Trấn Quốc Pagoda, also known as Trấn Quốc Tự, located on Thanh Niên Street in Tây Hồ District. With a history spanning 1,500 years, the pagoda venerates Amitabha Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha, and Avalokiteshvara, alongside several other altars. During the spring season, you can admire the East Asian architectural style, especially the unique beauty of statues and a towering 11-story pagoda. Situated beside a lake, it offers fresh air, natural beauty, and serene tranquility. This is an ideal spiritual destination for Hanoi's residents who prefer to stay close to home for their New Year prayers, while also attracting many visitors from other regions who come here to admire the scenery and pay respects.

Bổ Đà Pagoda is situated on Phượng Hoàng Mountain (also known as Bổ Đà Sơn), to the north of the Cầu River, in Tiên Sơn Commune, Việt Yên District, Bắc Giang Province. There is an old saying 'North Bổ Đà – South Hương Tích,' referring to Hương Tích Pagoda in the south of Thăng Long and Bổ Đà Pagoda in the north, indicating the importance and prominence of this temple. For a long time, it has been one of the oldest and most sacred spiritual sites in Northern Vietnam. The location of the pagoda is also known for its picturesque landscape and a mystical atmosphere, making it an incredibly attractive place to visit.

Phật Tích Pagoda is located on Vạn Phúc Mountain in Phật Tích Commune, Tiên Du District, Bắc Ninh Province.
