It was a beautiful and enlightening experience. I've wanted to have a similar experience for a long time and I was super satisfied. The guides are very kind, prepared and attentive to make you understand everything they want to tell you. I was also helped a lot with the language, being Italian. Experience full of deep meaning that remains with you once gone. I also had the opportunity to ask the guides some more personal questions and I was very nice to answer them. I recommend such an experience to everyone

Excellent introduction
This was a complete introductory experience to Buddhism and some of its practices. Our guide was thorough and easy to understand. Excellent English. Patient and funny. The content matter was detailed and you left with a good understanding of Buddhist principles and lessons for life.

Beautiful Spiritual Experience
This was a beautiful learning experience. We learned several types of meditation and were taught by a very knowledgeable Buddhist layman. He encouraged and respected our reflections and gently pushed us to go deeper. We concluded with a lovely vegetarian lunch. It was a highlight of our trip to Vietnam.

Peaceful Oasis in Ha Noi.
My husband and I enjoyed our experience at the Pagoda. We did the half day program. Naya and our other guide were very knowledgeable, sincere and gentle. We were able to try several meditation techniques and learn about Buddah and basic information about Buddhist philosophy. Also an incredible vegetarian lunch was served that included many delicious dishes. I highly recommend this experience for those interested in learning more and finding a peaceful oasis in the heart of Ha Noi.

Very enjoyable half day retreat!
We had such a great experience on this retreat! Our guides were so friendly and patiently answered all of our (many) questions. I appreciated all the different activities, the introduction to Buddhism concepts and meditation, and being able to have great conversation with our guides. I would highly recommend this experience if you visit Hanoi.

A Zen start to our trip to Hanoi
We did the 4 hour tour on our first day arriving in Hanoi and it was excellent. A really informative and interesting beginners guide to Buddhist teachings and meditation. Naya, our guide was excellent and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this as a short escape from the bussle of Hanoi life.
