Van Mieu – Quoc Tu Giam is a famous historical and

cultural site in Hanoi. Originally built in 1070 in the Ly

dynasty, Van Mieu was representative of Confucian ways of
thought and behaviour. Six years later, Quoc Tu Giam, the
first university of Vietnam, was established on the grounds
of Van Mieu. Between 1076 and 1779, Quoc Tu Giam

educated thousands of talented men for the country. In
1482, Van Mieu became a place to memorialize the most
brilliant scholars of the nation. The names, places of birth
and achievements of top students in royal examination were
engraved on stone stelae.

These stelae, carried on the backs of giant tortoises, are still
standing today and they attract great interest from visitors.

After more than 900 years of existences, Van Mieu is
an example of well-preserved traditional Vietnamese

architecture. The banyan trees in Van Mieu , which
