The Thien Thu Pagoda (also known as the Heavenly Kitchen Pagoda) was built in the 18th century.

Chua Huong or ‘Perfume Pagoda’ is not just a single building, but a complex of around 30 Buddhist shrines and temples extending for some distance along the right bank of the Suoi Yen River and high into the limestone hills beyond.
