Việt Phủ Thành Chương, Sóc Sơn

Việt Phủ Thành Chương was built on a site covering more than 8.000 ha in Sóc Sơn. This complex preserves many valuable elements of Vietnamese history and culture and has been featured by major international newspapers such as The New York Times and Herald Tribune. It is an unmissable destination for a 2-day, 1-night trip near Hà Nội.

Việt Phủ Thành Chương is artist Thành Chương's labor of love. He collected examples of historical and cultural beauty from the Đinh – Lý – Trần – Lê dynasties,… and created this complex to celebrate the beauty of traditional Vietnamese architecture. Construction began in 2001 and took 3 years to complete. Every stone slab and roof tile carries its own meaning and value.
