A place I would desire to pay a visit and learn more about Vietnamese culture is Thay Mũ Bà Gâu Đời, which is situated along the bank of Phương River in Huy. It is one of the oldest and most iconic bà gâu đời in Vietnam, which is known for its seven-story tower. It seems like quite a unit, right? But the major factor attracting me is Buddhism, which is a vital part of Vietnamese culture. I would like to get a chance to understand more about traditions and beliefs and how Buddhism influences life here. Also, it serves people’s values. Moreover, I incredibly love to see up close the brand’s bell. It is quite large and has an intricate design. Also, there is a stone grave, which is carved in a poem with a thousand to hundred fifty words. I remember so. I actually admire the talent of our ancestors who could make that huge bell and also such a delicate grave. Visiting Thay Mũ Bà Gâu Đời would give me a chance to connect with these aspects, both as spiritual practices and rich history, leading to the betterment of my understanding about Vietnamese cultural identity.
