Lý Bát Đế Shrine (Template:Lang-vi or Đền Đô or Cổ Pháp Điện) is a shrine for the worship of eight emperors of the Lý Dynasty in Vietnam. It is located in Đình Bảng Commune, Từ Sơn District, in the Red River Delta province of Bắc Ninh.
The main hall of the shrine is used for the worship of the Lý emperors. The Văn chỉ hall at the right of the main hall is used for the worship of Lý Đạo Thành and Tô Hiến Thành, two high-ranking civil mandarin officers who served the Lý Dynasty. The Võ Chỉ Hall at the left of main hall is dedicated to the worship of Lý Thường Kiệt, Lê Phụng Hiểu, and Đào Cam Mộc, who were generals.
In front of those halls is a half-moon shaped lake. A pavilion called Thủy Đình in the lake hosts water puppet plays and quan họ singing.
