Exploring the Temple of Literature: Stepping out of the van, I was immediately drawn to the majestic gates of the Temple of Literature. Despite our guide's warning about pickpockets, the day unfolded peacefully. Trees embraced the heritage site, and four tall pillars greeted me on the road leading to the Great Gate.

Journeying through the second courtyard, the expansive middle gate revealed a rare sight: lotus flowers, a rarity in my homeland.

The allure of Khue Van Pavilion guided me to the Well of Heavenly Clarity, housing statues of Vietnam's Holy Creatures—the Turtle, Dragon, Unicorn, and Phoenix.

In the sacred fourth courtyard, Confucius and Chu Văn An's statues stood amidst lacquer-finished columns and distinctive shell-shaped roof tiles, unique to Vietnam.

Entering the fifth courtyard felt like a voyage to another era, hosting a museum and a temple for learning/ crafts. Learning about its history, I discovered it's a space designed for students and their classrooms.

Reflecting on the overall layout of the entire complex is organized, starting from its welcoming gate, guiding you through pathways, trees, gardens, and ponds. In the third and fourth courtyards, you walk spiritually before delving into learning and studying. The fifth courtyard marks the end, where I realized that it is a step-by-step process to learn. It's amazing that Vietnam has built a place honoring the educated.
