    Worth a visit

    Entrance was 30000 dong and it took about 15 minutes to visit. A lot of tourists but it was easy to walk around. Well worth a look.

    Small , quiet temple in the lake

    A small , quiet temple in the lake. Been to quite a few temples across South East Asia and this one definitely won’t be on the list of ones I remember the most. Worth a visit but will only need 30 minutes max there.
