Besides scenic attractions such as Ha Long Bay and Cat Ba Island, this borderland province, known for its mining industry, is also home to many distinctive cultural spaces that attract travelers. One of the most popular cultural destinations for spiritual tourism enthusiasts in the region is Yen Tu. What does this destination have to offer beyond its unique meditative atmosphere? Let’s explore it through a collection of photos by Ly Anh Thu.
1 Sacred Yen Tu and Ly Anh Thu’s journey
1.1 A brief introduction to the sacred land of Yen Tu
Yen Tu is home to the famous Truc Lam Zen Buddhist Heritage and Scenic Site complex. Its peaceful scenery and contemplative beauty lie hidden behind majestic mountain ranges. Yen Tu is a destination where you can combine a relaxing getaway with an exploration of the spiritual cultural heritage of the Truc Lam Zen sect.
You should visit Yen Tu during its annual festival season to witness the lively atmosphere and the crowds of travelers visiting the pagodas. The festival on Yen Tu Peak usually begins on the tenth day of the first lunar month and continues throughout spring.
Yen Tu is perhaps at its most beautiful in the third lunar month each year. The weather is then warm and mild, with little rain, making conditions relatively dry. Yen Tu also receives fewer visitors at this time, so you can explore in a more comfortable and spacious setting.
Yen Tu is also home to many elegant accommodations with a refined, serene style imbued with a sense of Zen. You can visit the resorts to enjoy a relaxing stay and take in the peaceful surroundings without having to travel far. One of the resorts Ly Anh Thu chose to stay at was MGallery Legacy Yen Tu. This is a secluded resort with a luxurious style and relatively high-quality five-star service.
When visiting Yen Tu, you can explore spiritual sites such as Dong Pagoda, Cam Thuc Pagoda, Lan Pagoda, Trinh Pagoda, and Giai Oan Pagoda, or follow in the footsteps of Buddha King Tran Nhan Tong on a hike or by taking the cable car.
