Kim Lien Temple is a sacred temple guarding the South, a place to worship the god Cao Son, one of the 100 children of the ancestors Lac Long Quan and Au Co. Compared to the other three temples in Thang Long Four Towns, Kim Lien Temple is said to have been completed the latest, in the 16th-17th centuries since it was started after the relocation of the capital. Over time, Kim Lien villagers built more triangular gates next to Kim Lien Lake. Many auxiliary works have also been built and the temple gradually doubles the function of a village communal house. The most important relic of the temple is the stone stele "Cao Son Dai Vuong, the god of compassion" composed in 1510. Besides, there is a system of 39 ordination paths for the god Cao Son Dai Vuong which was built from the Hau Le dynasty to the Nguyen dynasty. Up to now, Kim Lien Temple has become a spiritual attraction that attracts many tourists from all over the world to worship.
