Tuong Long

Tuong Long

This Buddhist architectural work was built under the Ly Thanh Tong Dynasty on 2,000sq.m of land. It was located in Van Son Ward, Do Son town. The four angles of the tower are leaning by 1999 toward the center. The tower was empty. Inside it was a Buddha statue. Bricks and stone blocks of various sizes built this work. Unique tiles engraved with lotuses, chrysanthemums and lemon flowers covered its walls. This decoration style is typical of the Ly Dynasty. However, the tower was destroyed for its bricks when Hai Duong citadel was built in 1804.

The current Tuong Long Pagoda is located on the location where Tuong Long Tower once stood.
