The pagoda worship Goddess of Mercy. We can reach Buddha's altar by passing through steps made of brick. According to a myth, King Ly Thai Tong dreamed that he had met Goddess of Mercy seating on the lotus throne, handed him a male child. Later on he told mandarins about his dream. They advised the King to build a pagoda that shaped lotus flower in the middle of a pond.
Mandarins set up a platform, chanted prayers with the purpose of worshiping long live for the King. Next to One pillar pagoda is Dien Huu pagoda that mean long live.
