Thoai Ngoc Hau Tomb
Thoai Ngoc Hau Tomb

Location: At the foot of Sam Mountain, Vinh Te Commune, Chau Doc Town, An Giang Province.

Characteristics: Thoai Ngoc Hau Tomb is a fine piece of art of ancient architecture. 


Thoai Ngoc Hau Tomb is located in front of Ba Chua Xu Temple, that is the biggest monument at the foot of Sam Mountain, 5-km southwest of Chau Doc.

Thoai Ngoc Hau (1761–1829), originally named Nguyen Van Thoai, was the first man from this area to exploit the virgin soil, establish living settlements, and dig Vinh Te and Thoai Ha channels. He was buried there along with his two wives and a temple in his honour was built in the 1930s.
