A place that preserves cultural and historical values.

Proud of its rich history and traditional culture, over the years, the Party Committee, government, and people of Quang Trung ward have always paid attention to the preservation and promotion of traditional cultural values, meeting the cultural and religious needs of the people, and contributing to the development of spiritual tourism in the area.

The Song Son Temple has received attention for restoration and renovation, attracting tourists to visit and worship.

When visiting Quang Trung, tourists cannot miss the Nine Wells Temple (also known as Co Chin Temple) - one of the famous and sacred temples in Thanh Hoa province. According to documents archived at the Culture and Social Affairs Department of the Quang Trung Ward People's Committee , the Nine Wells Temple is dedicated to Cuu Thien Huyen Nu, the ninth daughter of the Jade Emperor (commonly known as Co Chin in folklore). During the battle between Tien Quan Thanh and Ba Chua Lieu Hanh at Song Son, when in danger, Ba Chua Lieu Hanh transformed into a dragon and appeared at the nine sacred wells - where Cuu Thien Huyen Nu resided. There, she was protected by Cuu Thien Huyen Nu's magic, and together with the Bodhisattva Quan Am, she escaped from Tien Quan Thanh's trap. To express gratitude for her compassion, Ba Chua Lieu Hanh decided to convert to Buddhism and become sworn sisters with Cuu Thien Huyen Nu. To commemorate and honor this protective deity, the local people erected a temple to Co Chin right next to the nine sacred wells. Therefore, every year, on the 26th day of the 2nd lunar month, within the framework of the Song Son - Ba Doi Festival, the palanquin of the Holy Mother will be carried from Song Son Temple to Chin Gieng Temple. On the 9th day of the 9th lunar month (the anniversary of the death of Cuu Thien Huyen Nu), the people of Quang Trung ward solemnly organize the offering of incense and gifts to commemorate Cuu Thien Huyen Nu.
