Aranhut Pagoda was built in 1632 in Long An A hamlet in Cai Tac town, Chau Thanh district. It was initially made from wood with a leaf roof, and was later rebuilt and renovated many times on the same site. The architecture includes a gate, a fence, a main hall, an ashes-keeping tower, a monks’ house, and a synagogue. The most prominent and most important is the main hall, which was built in the centre of the pagoda on an east-west direction.  Chosen as a place for religious and spiritual activities for nearly 400 years, Aranhut Pagoda has become a source of pride for local Khmer people.  Aranhut Pagoda is identified as the oldest Khmer temple in Hau Giang province and the Mekong Delta as well. The ancient Aranhut Pagoda, a unique Khmer art and culture work, is a meaningful destination for anyone, who wants to learn about Khmer culture in Vietnam’s south and explore the peaceful land of Hau Giang./.
