Yen Tu MGallery
A secluded 12th century monastery brought back to life
About The Hotel
Yen Tu is the home of Vietnamese Buddhism originated, after the 12th-century King-Monk Tran Nhan Tong, the third king of the Tran dynasty, abdicated the throne and went to Yen Tu Mountain to practise and teach Buddhism, before founding the Truc Lam School of Zen. In the midst of its vast forests and impressive temples sits the Legacy Yen Tu MGallery, which was inspired by the local heritage and spirituality, and was built using ancient techniques.
The 133 rooms evoke an ancient monastery, with beige-hued facades made of rice husks and brown handcrafted floor tiles sourced from a northern Vietnamese village – every detail takes one back to another time. While the entire hotel is designed with breath-taking yet simple elegance, it is the guestrooms that best capture the heritage, culture, craftsmanship and atmosphere of Yen Tu Mountain.
