Hanoi is known for its ancient temples and religious festivals. In order to truly experience Hanoi’s culture, you must take time to witness local festivals. The Chem Temple Festival is one of the most colourful events that must not be missed when in Hanoi. The temple is located in Thuy Phuong village, approximately 12 kms from the city centre. Accommodation for short or long term basis can be conveniently found in a serviced apartment in Hanoi such as the Somerset West Lake Hanoi. If you want to witness the Chem Temple Festival, then you must visit Hanoi in May when it holds a special celebration dedicated to the legendary Ly Ong Trong. Among the many customs, traditions and rituals that are carried out during the event is an exciting water procession to collect water that would later be used to bathe statues in the temple with accompanying boats, sounds of gongs, drumbeats and chanting.
