Bao An Pagoda in Dai Ly village, Thieu Van commune, is a popular tourist destination. According to historical records, the pagoda was built during the Ly Dynasty. In 1886, during the Ba Dinh Uprising, the pagoda became a gathering place for patriotic writers who responded to the Can Vuong (Support the King) decree, resulting in the destruction of many parts of the pagoda by the French. It was restored in 1905 and again in 2001 with the addition of three front halls and three rear halls. In 2005, Bao An Pagoda was recognized as a provincial-level historical and cultural relic.
