Erected in 1808 to worship and express gratitude to the village ancestors, this village temple has become the symbol of the local people's sheer vitality throughout the changing periods of history, wars, and natural disasters.
The temple is located at the center of the village, facing southwest. In front of the temple is a large paddy field and a long river. Within the precinct of the temple, there is a lotus lake in front, a three-gate arch, pillars carved with the honoring couplets, and a front screen to prevent the harmful flows of air.

The main sanctum of worship is a traditional wooden beam house with three sections and two rooms decorated in such styles as one poem, one painting, four sacred animals, a Dragon horse, and Two dragons flanking a moon,  and is carved with dragons, qilins, tortoise and phoenix in a sophisticated manner of high artistic value. 
In 1996, My Loi Temple was recognized as the national heritage of culture and history by the former Ministry of Culture and Information. This place still keeps a good record of hundreds of ordained documents of the Nguyen Dynasty along with several land record books, land maps, and village documents which include the Nguyen Dynasty's 250-year-old official papers to send troops to guard Paracel Islands. The documents related to Vietnam's sovereignty have been handed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to add more proof to affirm Vietnam's sovereignty over the Paracel Islands.
