One Pillar Pagoda (Vietnamese:Chùa Một Cột, formally Diên Hựu tự, which litterally means “long lasting happiness and good luck”) is a historic Buddhist temple in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. As you visit Hanoi, you may come to various other monuments, parks and historical places. Yet, the One Pillar Pagoda reflects the architectural splendour that the country has grown.
