Duoi is an ancient temple built during the Ly Dynasty on a raised area amid rice fields, surrounded by many old trees that create an ancient and tranquil setting. In 1992, Duoi temple was recognized as a national historical-cultural relic.
Through archaeological excavations, scientists discovered numerous architectural remains dating from the Ly and Tran dynasties. The temple's present-day architecture, with its layout and artistic features, was shaped during the Le Trung Hung period.
