Each has its own uniqueness. I personally like the northern's pagodas due to their historical significance and settings. Also, their statues and altars are something that you have to see to believe.

One-Pillar is just too beautiful and architecturally unique, and I think it's the most outstanding out of all of those. I've been to Thien Mu in Hue and I've gotta say I loved it, the atmosphere was so serene, the temple architecture elegant and the Perfume river alluring.

I hope these pagodas will be properly restored. Most of Japanese and Korean pagodas are very well restored.
