Sơn Tinh, the god of Tản Viên Mountain

from Outside Viet · host Jon, Dennis

Send us Fan MailOne of the Four Immortals, who's legendary battles over a beautiful princess, describes how and why Vietnam lives through a monsoon season. Wrongly called a genie (djinn) by Wikipedia, Sonny (as we inappropriately call him) is more rightly called a Saint, a chief figure in the beliefs of the Red River Delta peoples. These peoples are the ancestors of the modern Vietnamese. His daughter is of great importance too, being a ruler of one of the Four Palaces.
