Hội Quán Tuệ Thành, also known as the Thien Hau Temple, is a Chinese-style temple located in Cholon, District 5 of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Built around 1760 by the Cantonese community, this temple is dedicated to Mazu, the Goddess of Sea. The temple features intricate porcelain figurines on its roof, colorful dioramas depicting scenes from Chinese legends, and a main altar adorned with statues of Mazu. Visitors can witness the grand procession of Mazu's statue during her birthday celebration on the 23rd day of the third month of the Vietnamese lunar calendar. Additionally, the temple houses a large bronze bell that rings to mark significant donations.
