Perfume pagoda is a religious site as well as being a great sight-seeing spot in Viet

complex of Buddhist temples and shrines, including Den Trinh ( Presentation Shrine)
and Thien Tru ( Heaven Kitchen ) Pagoda, in the limestone Huong Tich mountains.
The centre of this complex is the Perfume temple, also called Chua Trong ( Inner

on the current site of Thien Tru in the 15th century during the reign of Le Thanh Tong.
Over the years some of its structures which were in ruins have been restored or
