Perfume Pagoda – back to origin of Buddhism land - One day

Tour code: NDE008
Price start from
US $64

Some 60 kms southwest of the city centre, Perfume Pagoda (Chùa Hương) is a cluster of Buddhist temples and shrines built into the limestone Perfume Mountains. It is the site of the country longest religious festival (Feb to Apr), which draws large numbers of pilgrims from across Vietnam. Cruising along scenic waterways and walk up mountain paths visiting pagodas and temples that were built in the area over centuries is a perfectly active day trip from Hanoi for nature lovers.


Am:

We come to pick you up at your hotel from 8h00 for 2 hours bus ride through the scenic countryside out of Hanoi, you would love to make a few stops for photos of nice paddy fields, harrowing famers along the way.

 

Upon arrival in Yen dock, we kick off the cruising trip, onto a private local boat for one hour rowing along Yen stream, gliding through spectacular scenery of water ways, mountains and rice paddies to reach the inner dock (can only be reached by boat as there is no road). We then start hiking up to the main cave uphill – Perfume Pagoda.

 



Pm:
Be rewarded with a fine view over the vegetation growing thickly on either side from the massive entrance when you reach the top, followed by a short walk into a gigantic cave.

Afterward, we start the journey back down the mountain for a bit late and simple lunch at a very local restaurant before visiting Thien Tru (Heaven Kitchen) Pagoda, then walking back to our waiting boat and row back to our car. Trip ends at your hotel around 18h00.
