Thien Mu Pagoda

Set on the banks of the Perfume River, Thien Mu Pagoda is one of Vietnam’s most iconic and atmospheric religious sites. Located just outside Hue, this historic pagoda has become a symbol of the former imperial capital, admired for its peaceful setting, elegant architecture, and deep spiritual significance.

Originally founded in the early 17th century, Thien Mu Pagoda is best known for its striking seven-storey tower, which rises above the river and surrounding gardens. The site also includes temple halls, courtyards, and landscaped grounds that create a calm and reflective atmosphere. With its riverside setting and long history, it offers a beautiful glimpse into Vietnam’s spiritual heritage.
