In recent days, information has appeared on social networks that the statue of Mr. Hoang Bay of Bao Ha Temple will be moved into the forbidden palace, causing many people and tourists to worry.
Before this information, on February 9th, in an exchange with a reporter from Lao Dong Newspaper, a representative of the Bao Ha Commune Relic Management and Tourism Development Board affirmed that this information is inaccurate, unfounded and completely not implemented or approved by the Management Board or any competent functional agency.
According to the representative, local people and tourists from all directions do not need to be confused, feel secure in living, working and practicing spiritual beliefs in accordance with customs and traditions at the relic.
At the same time, people need to be cautious, not share or believe in unverified information of unclear origin on social networks, to avoid causing misunderstandings and affecting religious activities at Bao Ha Temple.
The report of the Ministry of Finance on the overall inspection of the management of donations and sponsorships at historical and cultural relics shows that Bao Ha Temple collected donations in 2023 of 71 billion VND, second only to Ba Chua Xu Temple in An Giang.
By 2024, Bao Ha Temple will welcome about 1 million visitors, collecting about 72 billion VND in donations. In 2025, Bao Ha Temple will collect about 80 billion VND. The entire amount has been contributed to the State budget.
