Sunshine daydream, walk you in the cool breeze
Con Son is a tourist area of historical and
cultural relics in Cong Hoa Commune, Chi Linh District, Hai Duong Province. The
site includes mountains, pagodas, temples, streams and traces of famous
historical figures in culture and literature.
The 1km² site is surrounded by the Phuong Hoang and Ky Lan mountain ranges so it
is perfectly still and poetic. During the Tran Dynasty, the site was one of
three centers of Truc Lam Zen along with Yen Tu and Quynh Lam.
Tourists can visit Con Son Pagoda, Ngoc Well, Stone Table, Bach Van Temple and
Nguyen Trai Temple.
Con Son Pagoda, also known as Tu Phuc Pagoda and Hun Pagoda, is at the foot of
Con Son Mountain under the shade of dense groves of seasoned trees. Inside are
statues of Buddha and national hero Nguyen Trai. Built before the Tran Dynasty,
the pagoda has four stele houses and a 600-year-old tree in its yard.
Ngoc Well is on the side of Ky Lan Mountain and its clear water, considered
sacred, is used in solemn ceremonies.
About 600 steps from Con Son Pagoda, tourists will see Ban Co Tien, a flat,
spacious area with a large rock where visitors will see the two-story Bach Van
Temple built in ancient architecture. The site is ideal for a panoramic view of
the surroundings.
At Con Son, tourists can also stroll through the pine forest to get in touch
with nature and find some peace for the soul.
