In 1997, the Ministry of Culture and Information issued a historical relic certificate to this temple. The architecture of the stork is in a nail-shaped style, including five pre-worship spaces and three back palace spaces.

Every year, on the day of the festival, people in the village eagerly flock to the village to prepare for the festival. The festival consists of two parts: ceremony and festival. The ceremony takes place with traditional rituals of worship, sacrifice, and palanquin procession. The festival took place very vibrantly with folk games such as lion dancing, cockfighting, spoken singing, water puppetry, military drum singing... to contribute to building people's lives more prosperous and happy, while educating the tradition of drinking water, remembering its source, patriotism, and the indomitable spirit of the Vietnamese people.
