Tien Pagoda (Mau Nam) is an ancient pagoda built in 1931-1932 at the end of the Nguyen Dynasty. It is located in Nga An Commune, Nga Son District, Thanh Hoa Province. Although Tien Pagoda has only existed for nearly 100 years, its physical presence has followed the natural cycle of prosperity, decline, and renewal in the ever-changing flow of time. Restoring the cultural values of this pagoda, a scenic landmark that has long been cherished through legends and poetry, is an essential task for the generations of today and tomorrow. The cultural relic of Tien Pagoda covers a total area of 66,700 m², situated on elevated land, front faces northeast, overlooking vast rice fields and crops, while the back faces west, nestled against the Nha Ba Mountain range. At the top of Nha Ba Mountain, there is a large natural stone table known as the "Tien Chessboard." From the mountaintop, one can enjoy a panoramic view of the lake and the pagoda below. The current pagoda features architecture from the Nguyễn Dynasty, with vaulted structures for both the front hall (Tien Duong) and the main sanctuary (Hau Cung), and the roof is covered with traditional curved tiles.

Tien Pagoda (Mau Nam) is an ancient pagoda built in 1931-1932 at the end of the Nguyen Dynasty. It is located in Nga An Commune, Nga Son District, Thanh Hoa Province.

Although Tien Pagoda has only existed for nearly 100 years, its physical presence has followed the natural cycle of prosperity, decline, and renewal in the ever-changing flow of time. Restoring the cultural values of this pagoda, a scenic landmark that has long been cherished through legends and poetry, is an essential task for the generations of today and tomorrow.

The cultural relic of Tien Pagoda covers a total area of 66,700 m², situated on elevated land, front faces northeast, overlooking vast rice fields and crops, while the back faces west, nestled against the Nha Ba Mountain range. At the top of Nha Ba Mountain, there is a large natural stone table known as the "Tien Chessboard." From the mountaintop, one can enjoy a panoramic view of the lake and the pagoda below.

The current pagoda features architecture from the Nguyễn Dynasty, with vaulted structures for both the front hall (Tien Duong) and the main sanctuary (Hau Cung), and the roof is covered with traditional curved tiles. The three entrance doors are designed in an arched style. Outside the front hall is the main veranda (2.10m x 10.20m), while the Tien Duong (front hall) measures 3.80m x 10.20m, and the Hau Cung (main sanctuary) is 4.80m long and 2.5m wide. The front facade is connected to a three-story bell tower. With this architectural design, the pagoda appears grand, harmonious, and well-balanced from a distance. In addition to the main pagoda, there is also the Mau Temple, built in a similar arched style with curved tiles, located next to the pagoda. The pathway leading to the pagoda is lined with two rows of 70-year-old longan trees, adding to the ancient atmosphere of Tien Pagoda.

The architecture of the pagoda imitates the style of the late Nguyen Dynasty, but is also profoundly influenced by European church architecture, which emerged during the French missionary activities in the late 19th century. This influence was quite common during this period. However, the pagoda still preserves the essence of traditional Vietnamese folk religious architecture, creating a unique characteristic specific to the Nga Son region in Thanh Hoa.
