HON CHEN TEMPLE |
Standing
just on the bank of the Huong river inclined to poetic dreams and 10km
upstream of Hue, the Hon Chen temple for cult of Po Nagar, the Goddess
of the ancient Cham minority. After then, the Vietnamese continued the
cult and name the Goddess as Heaven Goddess Y A Na.
This temple for Goddess appeared in this place centuries ago,
but with a very simple design, and after then, reconstructed with a
larger and more beautiful architectural scale in 1886. |

The Hon Chen temple is situated at a lovely site seated on the slope of the
mountain Ngoc Tran with sheer cliff and mirroring in the deep blue water of
the Huong river.
