Abstract: English summary on page 73 as follows: Boc temple has been completely destroyed in 1789. In 1792, it was rebuilt on the same floor (at Chua Boc road, Dong Da district, Hanoi). There are many articles about art of achitecture and sculpture but many problems still need discussion. The author states that the statue of Divine Being (Duc Ong) at Boc temple is not King Quang Trung's, or God of the Earth or Indra (De Thich) but statue of Sudatta (Cap Co Doc)
