The Hanoi Temple of Literature full of Chinese style

🌟Highlights: The Hanoi Temple of Literature is a typical Chinese-style building, similar to many temples of literature in China, composed of five courtyards, where sages from China and Vietnam are worshipped. Walking through the main gate, the red brick road in the middle leads directly to the Gate of Great Chastity, with the Gate of Talent and the Gate of Virtue on either side, symbolizing the acquisition of talent and the achievement of virtue. The brick wall of the Temple of Literature, a large part of which comes from the Hanoi Castle. In 1895, the French destroyed the Nguyen Dynasty Castle and used the castle wall to repair the damaged Temple of Literature wall. The dark grey bricks come from the Later Le Dynasty, and the red ones come from the Nguyen Dynasty. 👍Most recommended: Walking inside, full of Chinese flavor, the lotus pond in front of the Kuixing Pavilion has no lotus flowers, leaving only a faint quiet lake. Surrounding the lotus pond on both sides is one of the most important relics of the Temple of Literature, the stele forest of scholars, and the 'Teacher of All Ages' hanging high in the Great Worship Hall, which also indicates the Kangxi Imperial Book. The Temple of Literature is also the earliest national university in Vietnam, and many university graduates will take photos here for memory. 🎫Ticket Information: 30,000 Vietnamese dong, if you are interested in history, you can rent a Chinese guide earphone for a tour. 🚉Transportation Strategy: About 15 minutes walk from Ba Dinh Square.
