Description

Phủ Thông – A Legendary Scenic Monument Full of Mystique

The Phủ Thông historical and cultural site is located within a cluster of scenic landmarks: Tiên Pagoda - Đồng Vụa Lake - Phủ Thông Cave in Nga An Commune, Nga Sơn District, Thanh Hóa Province. Phủ Thông Cave is surrounded by mountains and natural landscapes. In 2002, Phủ Thông was officially recognized as a national heritage site by the Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism. Besides, Phủ Thông was also recognized as a tourist destination by Thanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee in Decision No. 109/QD-UBND dated January 7, 2019.

Phủ Thông: Since ancient times, the local people have turned Phủ Thông into a shrine dedicated to Mẫu Chúa Thượng Ngàn, a legendary figure. The worship of Mẫu Thượng Ngàn is an important part of the belief system tied to the mountains and forests of the Vietnamese people. Mẫu Thượng Ngàn is regarded as the sacred soul of the mountains and rivers, guiding generations of people toward prosperity. Every year, the traditional festival at Phủ Thông takes place on the 19th, 20th, and 21st of the third lunar month.

The mountain where Phủ Thông Cave is located is only a few hundred meters from Tiên Pagoda. This is a solitary mountain standing along National Highway 10. Inside the cave, there are several passageways and an opening that leads to the sky, making it bright. The cave features many stalactites in fascinating shapes that attract tourists. Due to its convenient access, Phủ Thông Cave remains a popular stop for visitors.

Phủ Thông Cave

Tiên Spring: Inside Phủ Thông Cave, there are natural underground water streams flowing from the mountaintop, dripping down to form a spring that surrounds the shrine. The local people call it the Tiên Spring, which is considered sacred and mysterious.
