About
Бързи факти: Stunning red-brick towers sit atop a green hill, where fragrant incense and the murmur of pilgrims animate the terraces. Visitors climb narrow stone steps to discover intricate carvings and a surprisingly tranquil viewpoint that contrasts with the busy streets below.
Акценти: Go before sunrise and the silhouette of a thousand-year-old brick tower glows orange, incense curls around carved sandstone faces while the soft drone of chanting floats through the courtyard. Locals still leave handfuls of rice and betel leaves at the main shrine, and old storytellers whisper a sea-born legend about a woman who rose from the waves during the March festival, songs you’ll sometimes hear performed there.
Insider tips
- Dress modestly, cover shoulders and knees, and carry a light scarf for inner sanctums.
- Arrive before 9 AM or after 4 PM to avoid the midday heat and catch the best light for photos.
- Stand on the hill behind the main tower for the classic panoramic shot of the complex and the river.
- Respect worshippers during ceremonies, keep voices low, and ask before photographing people who are praying.
