new half day tour to Co Loa Citadel, Saint Giong
Temple and Thanh Chuong Palace from Hanoi.
Hanoi,
Vietnam, December 30, 2012 -- Luxury
Travel Ltd. has served the luxury travel industry
for many years, and their staff has acquired first-hand knowledge
about the travel market in Vietnam. Their advisors have visited their
recommended destinations, and have personally checked out the finest
hotels, resorts, restaurants, unique optional tours designed for
discriminating travelers.
At
8:30 am travelers will be picked up at their hotel in Hanoi and
driven to Co Loa Citadel. Co Loa Citadel is a fortress in the Red
River Delta, about 20 km north of Hanoi. The fortress is
spiral-shaped, and it is composed of the outer walls and the citadel.
Archaeologists revealed some fragments of Dong Son pottery and a
large number of bronze objects. In Co Loa Citadel, there are also two
remaining temples.
Travelers
will then drive to Soc Son Temple, which was built around 980 and
restored thirteen times, but still keeping its traditional
architectural style. If travelers climb up to the pagoda on the top
of the mountain, they can see the bronze Buddha statue, weighing 20
tons and standing 8.4 meters high. Also, on the side of pagoda, there
is the Buddhism Institute.
Thanh
Chuong's Viet Phu (or Thanh Chuong Palace) sits on 3 hectares in the
Hien Ninh Commune. Built in 2001, the estate incorporates a multitude
of buildings reflecting the diversity of Vietnam's architectural
heritage. Each of the buildings contains historic antiques and works
of art. Throughout the buildings there are many Buddha statues and
ceramic, pottery and stone objects, which Thanh Chuong has been
collecting for the last 30 years. (closed on Mondays)
"Home
and studio to one of the most celebrated painters in Vietnam, Thanh
Chuong Palace shines as an architectural gem showcasing traditional
cultural objects, exquisite antiques and compelling structures. A
living space as opposed to a museum, regardless of whether history
and art are your prime interests, a visit here impresses both the
novice and the expert." said Pham Ha CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd.
