  • 1 Pagodas in Hanoi at Present
    PAGODAS IN HANOI AT PRESENT NguyÔn §øc Sù (*) Abstract: At present, most of pagodas in Hanoi(1) are ancient pagodas, but they are reconstructed. The reconstruction of pagodas depended on the origins of pagodas and religious faith of Hanoi people. Most of Hanoi pagodas were built in the period of domination of Northern invader, in the Lý, the TrÇn, the Lª, the NguyÔn dynasties until Hanoi was liberated in 1954. However, the great part of Hanoi pagodas was built in the Lª Trung H­ng dynasty and the NguyÔn dynasty. On the origin, at first, Hanoi pagodas were village pagodas, private pagodas and court pagodas (national pagodas), then these pagodas gradually became the pagodas of cities. Some pagodas were nominated for national pagodas because they were built by court and they were bestowed royal decree by Court; for example, Diªn Hùu pagoda, TrÊn Quèc pagoda, Ngäc Håi pagoda. Then, almost these pagodas were not considered as national pagodas because later dynasties did not recognize them as national pagodas. The Nguyen dynasty only recognized some pagodas in Hue as national pagodas. Afterward the private pagodas became pagodas of city because the right of ownership and the right of management of these pagodas were not private rights. In Hanoi urban areas many village pagodas become pagodas of city because they are related to activities of townspeople. The pagodas in the suburban areas or the edges of town have still been village pagodas because the inhabitants still have maintained their village customs. Nearly every village has its pagodas, but Cæ NhuÕ village has three pagodas with 4 hamlets.
