Ambassadors’ Pagoda

The official centre of Buddhism in Hanoi, the wonderfully maintained and otherwise peaceful Ambassadors’ Pagoda attracts quite a crowd on holidays. During the 17th century there was a guesthouse on-site for the ambassadors of Buddhist countries. Today about a dozen monks and nuns are based here.
