HỘI QUÁN ÔN LĂNG - chùa Quan Âm hay chùa Ông Lào, Ngôi chùa nổi tiếng với tục “đánh kẻ tiểu nhân”

We invite you to visit the On Lang Assembly Hall - also known as Quan Am Temple or Ong Lao Temple, a famous temple known for its custom of "punishing the wicked." This is a Chinese temple located at 12 Lao Tu Street, Cho Lon Ward, Ho Chi Minh City. In Sino-Vietnamese, "On" (溫) means warm, moderate, pleasant, gentle, for example, mild, gentle, temperate climate; while "Lang" (陵) means hill or mound. On Lang is the ancient name of Quanzhou Prefecture in Fujian. Because this area has a mild climate and many hills, it is called On Lang. Since this assembly hall was established by the Fujian Chinese in Quanzhou, the name On Lang is used for the hall. People often call this place the On Lang Temple because there is a shrine dedicated to the goddess Thien Hau inside the assembly hall. However, the most common name is Quan Am Pagoda, even though Quan Am is not the main deity worshipped here.
