via Vietnam Net, 18 May 2022: The Lam Kinh royal capital in Thanh Hoa province was the capital for the Le Dynasty.
The special national relic site of the Lam Kinh ancient royal capital of the Later Le Dynasty in the northern province of Thanh Hoa’s Tho Xuan District harbours mysterious tales about one of the most significant Vietnamese feudal reigns.
After more than 10 years of restoration, the site’s Main Temple Hall area comprising the most important works covering over 1,600 square metres, opened at the beginning of April, attracting thousands of visitors.
The 200ha site is a complex of monuments with a large area of unique architectural works of the Later Le Dynasty (1428-1789).
The restoration was officially completed based on the original foundations. Along with the restored works of the Main Temple Hall, other areas, including Thai Mieu (Royal Temple), Nghinh Mon (Welcome Gate), Dragon Yard or audience attending court, White Bridge, the Ngoc River and an ancient well have also been carefully preserved.
