A young, caring poet and an angry, golden buffalo [Vietnam]:
There are many legends about Goddess Lieu Hanh. According to one of them, Phung Khac Khoan, a scholar and mandarin at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries, met a beautiful girl on West Lake one day.

The girl had a profound knowledge of poetry, and when Khoan asked for her name, she just smiled, gave him a poem and then vanished. When Khoan read the poem, he guessed that the girl was Goddess Lieu Hanh and later built a temple in Tay Ho District to worship her.
