Mia Pagoda
Location: Situated in Mia Village, Duong
Lam Commune, Son Tay Town, Hanoi.
Characteristics: The pagoda was built during the Tran Dynasty (1225-1406)
and still preserves many ancient artifacts.
Mia Pagoda is also initially called Sung Nghiem Tu. Several years later, Lady
Nguyen Thi Dong, also called Lady Mia, had the pagoda rebuilt and renamed. The
pagoda has 287 statues of all sizes, among which are famous sculptures such as
the statue of Buddha in the Himalayas and the statues of the Eight Vajra
Deities. The largest one is the sculpture of Bat Bo Kim Cang located in the
upper sanctuary. The pagoda preserves many ancient artifacts such as the great
red bell made in 1743, the bronze gong (1846), and the Lady Mia stone tables,
