Leaving the museum, we will visit Thien Hau, Taoist Temple, which is a Chinese style temple located in the Chinatown of Ho Chi Minh City. This magnificent temple is called "Chua Ba Thien Hau" in Vietnamese, which is determined to Thien Hau, the Goddess of the Sea who protects the sailors. She is said to stand on a mat and fly to everywhere on the oceans to save fisherman and sailors. If you visit temple on Lunar New Year, you’ll be able to witness traditional performances such as lion dance and dragon dance.
