The center is surrounded by an endless pine forest. In the temple, a 2.37-meter high statue of Princess Huyen Tran, seated on a throne, was cast in pure copper at the foot of Ngu Phong Mountain. At the top of the mountain, which is 108 meters above sea level, is the Hoa Binh bell-tower. On the copper bell, which weighs 1.6 tons and is 1.6 meters high, are engraved the words “peace world, happy humankind” meaning that the sound of the bell should bring peace to humankind.

From the top of Ngu Phong Mountain, tourists can catch a panoramic view of the city which is well-known for a lot of ancient relics.

Construction is underway at Huyen Tran Cultural Center such as a Zen monastery of King Tran Nhan Tong, an orchid house, a calligraphy garden and houses for composing music, art, literature and preserving and studying documents on kings Tran Nhan Tong and Tran Anh Tong and Huyen Tran Princess.

Once visiting the site, tourists can not only pay tribute to the princess, but can learn more about history and enjoy the peace and quiet of the site.
