Two of Vietnam’s kings, Phung Hung (761-802) and Ngo Quyen (896-944)
were born in Duong Lam, giving the village its prestige. Both men led
resistance wars against northern invasion and after winning national
independence, were crowned kings. After their deaths, the local people
built temples in their honour.
Duong Lam Village has a history of about 1,200 years with many houses dating back up
to 400 years. One special thing about the village is that most of the
buildings here are made of laterite and mud, two materials that are
abundant in the area. Laterite is used on house walls, gates, wells,
temple walls, and so forth. The mud is taken from ponds. Apart from its
historical and tourism values, Duong Lam ancient village is an important
place for scientists to study resident communities in ancient
agriculture. The village gate, banyan, well, communal house are important factors in classifying Duong Lam ancient village.
