Nestled in the limestone walls of the Huong Tich mountains lies the Perfume Pagoda. It is a complex of several religious structures from prayer halls and temples to a regal entrance gate. Legends claim that the site was discovered by a monk over 2000 years ago when he was on a meditative retreat. He named the site Thien Tru after a monastery in Tibet where the Lord Buddha practiced asceticism. Each building in the complex is built to observe specific rituals or to be used during the main pilgrimage festival held annually. Hanoi accommodation options are numerous, but none offer the convenience of Hanoi serviced apartments. The Somerset Grand Hanoi is a modern apartment complex that is centrally located and equipped with modern services and facilities.
