This paper is a part of analysis on the changing process of temple layout in northern Vietnam. Thuong Dien which the object of this paper is the main building where enshrines the principal image of Buddha in the temple. The oldest techniques among existing wooden buildings still remain in Thuong Dien, and it seems the formation had changed as Buddhism faith develops; however, its process is not clear. Accordingly, I examined the measurements-ratios of column spacing, the structure form to support roof, and the number of purlins. In consequence, the examinations of these things make it clear that the fundamental formation changed at 17th century and the end of 18th century as the number of statues in that place increased under the influence of Vietnamese Buddhism which introduced Jodo-Buddhism, the faith of the founder and so on. Its changes are as follows; the early existing one which was built from 14th to 16th centuries kept shut, but the inside was decorated. In the 17th century, the plane was extended. From the end of 18th century, Thuong Dien got to be opened to show the statues and less decoration inside.
