Pagoda of the Celestial Lady
By Linda Tancs
Huế is a city in central Vietnam that was the seat of Nguyen Dynasty emperors as well as the national capital from 1802 to 1945. It’s where you’ll find Thiên Mụ (Pagoda of the Celestial Lady), an important spiritual center for Buddhists. Located on the banks of the Perfume River, each of the seven floors of the pagoda is dedicated to a Buddha that appeared in human form. The city is located on the main railway line in Vietnam running from Saigon in the south to Hanoi in the north. Its riverboat service is a convenient way to access the pagoda, located at Thien Mu Boat Station stop.
