Vĩnh Khánh (Then) Pagoda was originally constructed during the Lý era, but while nothing now remains of the original pagoda, its extant stupa, the Bình Sơn Tower - a 15-metre high, 11-storey terracotta structure built during the Trần era – is of considerable architectural interest. The tower was restored in 1972 after a landslide caused the tower to sink to one side.
