Thap But - Pen Tower is located next to Hoan Kiem Lake, where you can get the ticket to visit Ngoc Son Temple. In 1865, scholar Nguyen Van Sieu repaired the temple to its present appearance, including The Huc Bridge and the Pen Tower, which has a diameter of 12m and is 4m high. The square tower has five floors. In the body of the tower, Nguyen Sieu carved the three words "Ta Thien Thanh", meaning "Writing to the blue sky". People often come here to pray, and the surrounding area has lots of trees, making it a great place to walk around in Hanoi.

It's a famous landmark around Hoan Kiem Lake. It's just small tower and the name means Pen Tower (writing into the sky). You will pass by this tower on the way to The Huc Bridge and Ngoc Son Temple.
