Hidden among Limestone Mountains, the Perfume Pagoda, is located in a complex of Buddhist temples, located about 60 kilometers from Hanoi. This complex was built over 200 years ago, along with other older buildings, as a place of pilgrimage, and according to a legend, was discovered by a Buddhist monk who was meditating. Currently, the most popular pilgrimages begin in mid-January and ends in mid-March, coinciding with festival Perfume Pagoda. Also, as traditionally said the festival was considered an opportunity for locals to start a romance and find a partner.
