In Vietnamese mythology, Chu Dong Tu is regarded as one of the four immortals of the country along with Than Giong, Lieu Hahn and Son Tinh. In legends, Chu Dong Tu appeared on a golden or yellow dragon and was able to meet Trieu Quang Phuc, a sixth-century resistance leader. In Vietnam, Chu Dong Tu is regarded as a saint and his story with Princess Tien Dung is one of the oldest stories in the mythology.
