TPO - In addition to the famous Ly Thai To monument, not everyone knows that in the west corner of Hoan Kiem Lake there is also a statue of King Le Thai To located in a quiet space of the historic Nam Huong Communal House.
 |
Nam Huong Communal House and the statue of King Le Thai To are two structures that are both associated with the story of the magic sword and Hoan Kiem Lake, bearing the historical mark of the Le Dynasty. |
 |
The monument is located right in front of Nam Huong communal house, next to Hoan Kiem lake, facing the Turtle tower. This is a symbol associated with the career of King Le Thai To (Le Loi). |
 |
The monument was built to honor King Le Thai To, the founder of the Later Le Dynasty and an important historical figure in the resistance against the Ming army (15th century). The image of King Le Loi is associated with the legend of returning the precious sword to the Divine Turtle at Hoan Kiem Lake, symbolizing the unity and independence of the nation. |
  |
Nam Huong Communal House is quiet with lush green trees, one side facing Hoan Kiem Lake, the other side facing Hang Trong Street. |
 |
This is a small space, nestled among modern buildings. |
 |
The communal house was built during the Le Dynasty, worshiping gods who contributed to the country and people, including Cao Son (a mountain god). |
 |
The communal house is small in scale, in traditional style with curved tiled roofs and elaborate carvings. Despite its small area, Nam Huong communal house still retains its ancient features, a place to preserve spiritual values in the heart of the capital. |
 |
Nam Huong Communal House is not only a place of worship but also a space for people to remember history and traditional culture. |
 |
Today, the communal house is one of the rare places that still preserves traces of ancient Hanoi by Hoan Kiem Lake. |
  |
Nam Huong Communal House used to be a meeting place for patriotic intellectuals during the anti-French period. |
 |
This is a space that not only has historical value but also preserves the soul of the capital, very worth for people and tourists to explore. |
