Discover Hanoi city & Duong Lam ancient village

Duong Lam ancient village is about 60 km west of Hanoi. It has a history of about 1,200 years with many houses dating back up to 400 years. It is the only place in Vietnam where two kings came from. Two of Vietnam’s kings, Phung Hung (761-802) and Ngo Quyen (896-944) were born in Duong Lam, giving the village its prestige. Both men led resistance wars against northern invasion and after winning national independence, were crowned kings. After their deaths, the local people built temples in their honor.
