While exploring the Tam Coc area, visit the historic Thai Vi Temple. Nestled in a beautiful valley accessible via a short walk or cycle ride from the Tam Coc boat station, this temple was built in the 13th century and is dedicated to the kings of the Tran Dynasty who played a role in defeating Mongol invaders.
The temple features traditional Vietnamese architecture and offers a peaceful atmosphere away from the main tourist crowds. Visiting Thai Vi Temple provides insight into the region's history beyond the earlier Dinh and Le dynasties.
