Duong Lam Village Full Day Tour

Duong Lam Ancient Village boasts a rich history spanning approximately 1,200 years, distinguished by its remarkably preserved laterite brick houses, some dating back three to four centuries. Laterite, a distinctive red clay formed from weathered basalt, is a hallmark of northern Vietnam's architecture. The village holds national significance as "the hometown of two kings," adding to its historical allure.

This full-day trip takes you from Hanoi to Son Tay province, where Duong Lam is nestled as a quintessential agricultural village of the Northern Red River Delta. Upon arrival, you'll embark on a walking tour through the village paths, visiting significant sites like Mong Phu Temple, King Ngo Quyen Temple, and King Phung Hung Temple. A highlight of the tour is enjoying a special Vietnamese lunch in an ancient house, where you can also observe or participate in the making of local specialties such as soft green-lentil cake and rice cake with brown onion, depending on the season. The tour concludes with a visit to Mia Pagoda, a 15th-century structure housing 287 statues of various sizes, before returning to Hanoi.
