Located in number 73 block of Buoi Ward, Tay Ho District, Hanoi, Dong Co temple is one of famous historical relics of Hanoi capital.
Dong Co temple was originally constructed on the bank of the To Lich River during the Ly Dynasty (11th century) to worship the Dong Co (Bronze Drum) God, a unique symbol of Vietnamese culture. Not only being a typical Vietnamese musical instrument, the ancient Vietnamese bronze drum is also a prayerful holy piece of Vietnamese for thousand years.
