Highlights
  • Thien Nien Temple - Welcome to the pagoda, where the guide will explain the rules in the first lesson. The first activity holds great significance as you chant the solemn sutras, which contain the teachings of Buddha. Learning about profound doctrines to apply in your daily life follows. Afterward, it’s time to practice qigong and mindful breathing for good health before heading to the meditation session. Enjoy tranquil moments while engaging in walking meditation.

Next is the art of touching peace—learning about meditation methods and focusing the mind for true happiness. The most anticipated moment is when you converse with monks to understand more about Buddhist doctrine, the noble life of those who have renounced worldly pleasures, and lofty ideals.

Nurture compassion through the activity of releasing animals and enjoying a grateful meal. Finally, exchange gifts and bid farewell.

morning full meditation inversion - They gave me this experience and so I didn't know exactly what to expect! When we arrived at the Pagoda, Hung welcomed us and we began our morning of meditation! He explained to us carefully what Buddhism was and answered all our doubts! We concluded with an excellent vegetarian lunch! A very constructive and different morning from the usual! Through this practice one can immerse oneself and better understand the Biddhist religion! I recommend it if you have a morning in Hanoi! The people who organize it are prepared and very nice

A must do experience! I’m blown away and so happy - I had the most wonderful experience and I can highly recommend the meditation retreat with Hung and Jang Tour. The scenery of the pagoda is absolutely stunning. So authentically beautiful, it feels like a dream. The curation of the different types of meditation practices, education about Vietnamese Buddhism and the school of Karma was excellent. I learned so much and gained another level of understanding about Meditation and Mindfulness. I’m feeling blissful, at peace, calm and energized at the same time. Do yourself a favor and book this retreat. It was one of my highlights of my Hanoi visit and I will definitely be back. Thank you so much again!

A wonderful experience - Indeed it was a cultural tour + half day meditation retreat that we joined last Friday. The tour was exceptionally good. We enjoyed very much the country side with even a bike offered... the food was simply gorgeous! Most impressive was the tour guides - Hung and Spring spent the day with us and their hospitality and passion to share made the tour unforgettable! I would highly recommend those who want something different to join their tours!
