  den hung vestiges  
Den Hung VestigesDen Hung Vestiges are located approximately 95 km from Hanoi. This group of vestiges is tied to the legend of the 18 Hung Kings who built Van Lang State (Vietnam in the past).

Among the vestiges are the tomb of a Hung King and the Gieng (well) Temple located at the foot of the mountain.

In the temple there is a well where the two daughters of the 18th Hung King had the habit of looking at their reflection in the well to comb their hair.

On Nghia Linh Mountain, many artifacts and vestiges of the Van Lang civilization such as Stone axes, bronze spears, ceramic bowls and plates, stone columns, terra cotta jars, bricks and tiles still remain.
