Temple in a Cave



Sixty kilometres south-west of Hanoi is the Perfume Pagoda, a very important place of worship for the Vietnamese. It's 2 hours by car out of Hanoi, and then an hour's boat ride, and then an hour to climb up to the temple. All I can say is, thank god for the cable car!!!

The 'temple' is actually set inside a cave or grotto at the top of a mountain. It's a bit like our Batu Caves. Read more about the Perfume Pagoda here and here.
