| Chùa Hương trip: We took the trip
to Hương Pagoda (Perfume Pagoda)
around
Christmas time, this is an off-season, therefore, there were few
boats on the river. Chua Huong is famous for the annual
pilgrimage of Buddhists. Every year, between February and March, Chua Huong
festival draws hundreds of thousands of people from all over the country.
During this time of the year, Bến Đục
is packed with thousands of row boats used for
shuttling visitors. Chua Huong trip starts at "Bến Đục"
. Although there is a road from the pier "Đục" to
the base of Chùa Hương, most people choose to use row boats on "Yen"
river. |
