The pagoda was built in 1142 under the reign of king Lý Anh Tông to worship two Vietnamese heroines Trưng Trắc and Trưng Nhị in Hương Viên street, Đồng Nhân ward, Hai Bà Trưng district, Hà Nội. There are two fine clay statues of two Trưng heroines with 12 statues of their general -ladies. Every year, a grand festival is held at the pagoda on the 5th and 6th days of the second lunar month to commemorate the two national heroines.
