Doc Cuoc Temple

Doc Cuoc Temple is erected on Co Giai Rock, on Truong Le Mountain, next to Sam Son Beach. It is a place of worship for the One-Legged Deity.

According to legend, a young giant tore his body to fight at the same time a marine monster and enemies on land in order to protect the inhabitants of Sam Son. The local people decided to build a pagoda in his honour on a rock that bore a giant footprint.

 

Built under the Tran Dynasty, the temple has been restored several times.
