History & significance

A Thiền (Vietnamese Zen) temple on Hàm Long hill in Huế, founded in 1670 by the master Thích Giác Phong under the Nguyễn lords and enlarged from 1808 with the patronage of Empress Hiếu Khương, wife of Gia Long. Its triple gate, dragon-wound pillars and stupas stand above a spring that runs down into the grounds.
