Information

Location: Nghe Temple is situated in Me Linh Ward, Le Chan District, Haiphong City, about 600m from the Municipal Theatre towards the south-west.
Characteristics: The temple is devoted to the cult of Le Chan, a woman general in the insurrection of the two Trung Sisters.



Le Chan established the settlement of An Bien village, the predecessor to Haiphong.

Previously, the temple was only a small shrine, but in 1919 a sanctuary of the Temple was built, and in 1926 the Kowtowing Court was built. The Temple is a historical vestige monument comprising stone elephants, stone horses, stone ornate beds, stone stelae and buildings.
