Arrival Podcast 018: Legacy Yen Tu: Vietnamese soul and Truc Lam Zen Spirit

With interesting stories from seasoned professionals in the industry, Hotelier Vietnam is the leading publication for readers passionate about the tourism and hospitality sector. In Arrival Podcast Episode 018, join Hotelier and Mr. Bui Đinh Tuan – Chairman of Tung Lam Development Joint Stock Company, as they explore the story of the Truc Lam Cultural Center – a “cultural transformation” complex located at the foot of Yen Tu Mountain.

The Truc Lam Cultural Center is an architectural complex embodying the “Vietnamese Soul – Tran Essence – Truc Lam Zen Spirit.” It serves as a gateway that connects the spiritual and everyday life, taking visitors back to the glorious past of the nation and recreating the golden era of the Tran Dynasty in the 13th century. The architecture of the complex, designed by renowned architect Bill Bensley, draws inspiration from the image of ancient arched doors, strong thick walls, and the lotus-shaped roof tiles of Hue Quang Golden Stupa. Traditional handcraft materials and building methods from famous Vietnamese craft villages also contribute to creating a refined and emotionally rich cultural space.
