Cot Pagoda - A Nguyen Dynasty Heritage Site Amidst Modern Life
Located in Yen Hoa town (Cau Giay district, Hanoi ), Cot Pagoda (also known as Ngoc Quan Tu) is affectionately called by locals of the nearly 400-year-old temple, a name closely associated with the old village.
Bearing the distinctive architectural style of the Nguyen Dynasty, Cot Pagoda retains the traditional beauty of Northern Vietnamese pagodas: soaring curved roofs, moss-covered tiled roofs – all creating a peaceful and intimate atmosphere. In the late 20th century, the pagoda was restored and renovated with massive wooden buildings, remaining faithful to its ancient style, contributing to preserving the Vietnamese spirit amidst Hanoi's ever-changing landscape.
YooLife recreates the atmosphere of Cot Pagoda – where technology connects heritage.
YooLife is known as a pioneering virtual reality social network for Vietnamese people, where users can create and share virtual content, short videos , and images on the platform. Built with the aspiration of being "a place to store memories - a future meeting point for Vietnamese people," YooLife is committed to preserving and promoting cultural aspects, honoring historical values, fostering artistic development, and spreading tourism.
Recently, YooLife brought a vivid digital experience of Cot Pagoda – a nearly 400-year-old ancient temple located in Yen Hoa Street, Cau Giay District. Through VR360 technology, viewers can "step into" the pagoda with just a touch, freely choose their standing point, change their viewing angle, zoom in on details, and explore each roof tile, statue, and horizontal plaque... as if they were present in the real space.
Beyond just visual imagery, YooLife also integrates a smart chatbot – acting as a "virtual guide" always ready to chat and answer users' questions about the history of the temple, the statues, rituals, or the meaning of each architectural detail.
In addition, the multi-point automatic audio guide system will automatically play audio as users move to each area in the virtual space – from the triple gate, the main hall, the ancestral house to the inner sanctuary.
With its flexible blend of technology and culture, YooLife is opening up a completely new approach to heritage preservation, history education, and tourism promotion, while affirming Vietnam's position on the world virtual reality technology map. This is not just a technological leap – it's also a journey connecting tradition with the future.
