Sacred Symbol

Hung King Temple, a cultural and historical symbol of the Vietnamese people, is located on Nghia Linh Mountain, Hy Cuong Commune, Viet Tri City. With a sophisticated combination of unique architecture with profound spiritual values, Hung King Temple has become a sacred place of worship and preserves memories of the origin and formation of the Vietnamese people.

At Gieng Temple in the Hung King Temple Historical Relic Site, 70 years ago, on September 19, 1954, President Ho met and talked with the Vanguard Army Corps that was marching to take over the capital Hanoi. He advised, "The Hung Kings have built the country; you and I must work together to protect the country.".

At the location in front of Gieng Temple, a stele was erected to mark the historical event of Uncle Ho’s words resounding from Hung King Temple as a sacred call of the country’s mountains and rivers, resonating in the souls of every Vietnamese person in every part of the country. Uncle Ho’s instructions are not only for the Vanguard Army Corps but also for the entire army, all our people, for all generations of the past, present, and future, like an order that echoes for thousands of years, lasting forever with the country and the Vietnamese people.
