This structure was built in 1926 by the French administration with the original name \"Temple du souvenir\" to commemorate Vietnamese soldiers who died fighting in World War I under the French army. After 1954, when France withdrew from Vietnam, the temple was converted into a place to worship the Hung Kings, becoming a sacred symbol marking profound respect for history and those who contributed to the nation.
