Chua Huong, the Perfume Pagoda, is located 65 km southwest of Hanoi, in Huong Son commune, My Duc district. It is in fact a group of Buddhist temples and pagodas dedicated to Quan Am, the Goddess of Compassion, also known as Guanyin in other countries. This sacred complex is built on the slopes of the Perfumed Footprint Mountain (Huong Tich Mountains). Every year, the spring pilgrimage attracts large numbers of worshippers for several weeks. Unfortunately, the site suffers from over-exploitation by both the authorities and private companies, which spoils the visit somewhat.
