Tabula
Cổ Lóa lies in Đông Anh, across the Red River and north of central Hanoi. On a detailed map it has one of the most remarkable outlines in Vietnam. The remains of an ancient citadel curve around the village in irregular loops of earthen ramparts and moats. Lanes, ponds and small fields fill the spaces between them.
Tradition links the citadel to King An Dương Vương, who made it the capital of the kingdom of Âu Lạc in the third century BC. Legend describes its walls as a spiral, and three concentric lines of rampart are still visible in the landscape today. Temples and a communal house stand within the inner enclosure and keep the site in active use for remembrance and annual festivals.
On a Cổ Lóa map poster, the ancient earthworks appear as soft, looping lines running through the modern village. Around them lie the water and field divisions typical of the Red River delta. It is a quiet, archaeological kind of map. It means a lot to anyone with roots in Hanoi's northern districts or a fascination with the long story of Vietnamese cities.
Three rings of earthen walls and moats curve around the village. They form loose, nested loops that are still easy to read on the map more than two thousand years later.
Small ponds, channels and field boundaries are scattered across the surrounding land. This fine delta texture fills the space between the rampart lines.
At the heart of the site, temples and a communal house cluster inside the innermost ring. The lanes converge on this historic core.
