Phat Tich Pagoda (also known as Van Phuc Pagoda) is located on the southern slope of Phat Tich Mountain in Phat Tich commune, Tien Du district, Bac Ninh province. According to the book "Complete History of Dai Viet" and traces and relics found in the pagoda area, Van Phuc pagoda was built between the 7th and 10th centuries. Right from the beginning, Tien Son Pagoda was the gathering place and stopping place of the first missionaries from India to our country and highly enlightened Zen masters. However, it was not until the Ly Dynasty (1010-1025) that the model of living and practicing at the pagoda became clear and large-scale because at this time the pagoda became a national temple and also the homeland of the Ly dynasty kings. In 1041, Ly Thai Tong built Tu Thi Thien Phuc Institute and cast a 7,560-kg statue of Amitabha Buddha to worship. Since then, Thien Phuc Mountain or Thien Phuc Pagoda was formed, replacing the name Tien Son Pagoda. In 1057 - 1066, King Ly Thanh Tong built Thien Phuc Pagoda and erected the highest tower in the country, inside built a Buddha statue currently 1.87m high, the entire pedestal is 2.87m, cast 2 gold statues of Brahma and De Thich for worship. in front of the temple. According to history books, in 1071, King Ly went on a trip to Phat Tich and wrote the word Buddha 1 truong 6 meters (5 meters) long, and had it carved into stone to be kept at the pagoda on Tien Du mountain. There is also a story that in 1129, under the reign of King Ly Than Tong, 84,000 terracotta stupas were inaugurated, placed in many places throughout the country, 80,000 stupas were placed in Phat Tich alone, so the mountain range in Phat Tich is named Bat Van Son. From 1073 to 1210, the dynasties of King Ly Anh Tong and Ly Cao Tong all visited Thien Phuc National Temple. During the Tran Dynasty (1228 - 1400), Thien Phuc Pagoda was still the national temple but was renamed Van Phuc. In 1279 - 1280, King Tran Nhan Tong built Bao Hoa palace. After its inauguration, the king compiled Bao Hoa's poetry collection consisting of 8 volumes to commemorate. King Tran Nghe Tong (1370) built the Lan Kha library, with himself as Director, for reading, enjoying and serving the court. In 1384, the King organized a Thai student exam (PhD) here to choose talented people to serve the country. The pagoda is also the place to record the mark of a famous Chinese Zen master - Zen master Chuyet Chuyet. From 1635 - 1644, Zen Master Chuyet Cong came to practice at Phat Tich Pagoda, and Lord Trinh Trang, King Le Huyen Tong and the servants all respected him. Lord Trinh Trang wanted more Buddhist scriptures to circulate in the country, so the Zen master sent his disciple Minh Hanh to China to request the scriptures. The scriptures were brought back, some were engraved for dissemination, the rest and the engravings were stored at Phat Tich Pagoda. During the reign of Le Trung Hung (1686), the pagoda was degraded, the Le kings restored it to its old scale, calling it Phat Tich Pagoda (literally called Van Phuc). During the Nguyen Dynasty, Phat Tich Pagoda was last renovated. From 1949 - 1952, the French occupied Phat Tich Pagoda and completely destroyed this national pagoda, leaving only the brick foundation, some Patriarch statues, and a few other Dharma objects. In 1959, Phat Tich Pagoda was built by the State. Rebuilt on a small scale to preserve the remaining relics. In 2008, construction began on a number of new projects, including a 30m high stone Buddha statue (including pedestal) on Phat Tich Mountain. The newly built Amitabha Buddha statue is based on the Buddha statue carved by King Ly Thanh Tong in 1057, and is now worshiped in the main hall. Phat Tich is not only the center of Buddhism but also preserves a treasure of legends, cultural activities - folk arts, typically the legends of Mrs. To Co, the wars between An Duong Vuong and Trieu Da , the woodcutter Vuong Chat, Tu Thuc meeting a fairy, Cao Bien building an enchanted tower, the Tea Queen, Nguyen Dang Cao flower gardener and the famous peony viewing festival at Phat Tich pagoda on the 4th of the first lunar month.

In its golden age, the city was called Buddha Tathagata, the capital city of the capital Vijaya. This is one of the four ancient Champa citadels in Binh Dinh, once the economic and political center of this area from the 8th to the 15th century. Cha Citadel is located south of the Vijaya citadel, now in the territory of An Thanh village, Nhon Loc commune, An Nhon district - Binh Dinh. Located on a high strip of land on the south bank of the Kon River, Cha Citadel consists of two large and small citadels built close to each other (also known as the inner citadel and outer citadel), both with a rectangular plan. In the large citadel area, pairs of citadel walls face each other with negligible length differences. When building, the ancients relied on the direction of the Kon River, so the length of the northern wall was about 100m longer than the southern one. The east and west pair of walls are nearly 350m long, while the north and south pair of walls are nearly 950m long. Except for the north side of the citadel, which was mostly eroded due to its proximity to the Kon River, the remaining sides are relatively intact.

The small citadel is located back-to-back with the large citadel in the northwest direction, with a width of 134m and a length of 240m. An interesting thing here is that the creator of this ancient Buddhist citadel deliberately arranged two large and small citadels in a continuous pattern, shown in the fact that the eastern wall of the small citadel is also a part of the wall. To the west of the big citadel, another section is added. In this small citadel, no trace of the wall was found on the north side and it used the Kon River as a moat to create a shield to protect the citadel. This shows that the small citadel was arranged by ancient people as an outpost of the large citadel, a very important waterway transportation route. Citadel Cha is a citadel that also has many other names in folk culture such as Citadel Hoi, Citadel Ho Xu, Citadel Bac, Citadel Cu... but the most common name is Citadel Cha. The large citadel is located to the east. The north side of the wall runs west-east, 947m long, 3 to 5m wide, and currently about 1m high. In the middle of the citadel wall, there is an 8m high mound, gradually sloping towards the two sides of the citadel, called the Flag Pillar Mound. The southern wall has a similar length, but has been eroded, remaining only slightly above ground level. The most visible relics are the two eastern and western walls. The eastern wall runs north-south, is 345m long with an average height of 4m, and the wall is over 30m wide. The western wall has the same length and height, but the surface is narrower, about 7 to 10 meters. The northwest corner of the large citadel is surrounded by two sections of the citadel wall, one running from the Flagpole mound to the south with a length of 240m and a section perpendicular to it running to the west, connecting with the western wall of the large citadel to form a rectangular campus. In the middle of this campus there is a large mound of bricks, the remains of a collapsed structure. The smaller rectangular citadel is located adjacent to the northwest of the large citadel with a length of 440m and a width of 134m.

Here there is a large beach near the foot of the mountain (currently soldiers often use it as a training ground). Ban Keo hill is not very high but quite long, shaped like a crescent moon, concave and facing the northern mountains. Along with Doc Lap Hill, Keo village is responsible for protecting Muong Thanh airport, preventing attacks by our troops from the direction of Lai Chau to Dien Bien Phu.

The 36th Regiment of the 308th Infantry was assigned to destroy Keo village. The 36th Regiment realized that it had the ability to solve this stronghold without a battle, so it used a single-army order to call on the Thai soldiers to surrender. On March 16, 1954, at the foot of Ban Keo hill, a large picture-like scene appeared of a group of Thai soldiers leaving their positions with the words: "Return to the Fatherland, with your compatriots, you will received a kind welcome." Although the French commander tried to control him, the Thai soldiers took advantage of the time the French commander went underground to hide, brought out their weapons, and pulled out the line. The French sent tanks to chase the Thai Wei army and artillery. of the Viet Minh fired to cover the above-mentioned soldiers running to safe shelter positions in the forest. Without firing a shot, the 36th Regiment captured Keo village, ending the first attack, opening the northern door to the center of the Dien Bien Phu stronghold.

Dinh Hiep Ninh is located in Quarter 4, April 30 Street, Ward 3, Tay Ninh and only about 4km from the city center. The people of Tay Thanh are always proud of a long-standing architecture that has been built for more than 100 years, not only with impressive sculpture but also associated with glorious historical periods of the Vietnamese people. Hiep Ninh Communal House worships the village's Thanh Hoang Tran Van Thien - the person who immigrated, reclaimed land and established hamlets, preserved land and protected the border. At the Tay Ninh Museum today, King Khai Dinh's decree made of precious silk fabric, embroidered with pearls and brocade, is still preserved on March 18, 1917. According to folk beliefs, village communal houses are places that clearly demonstrate the values of cultural life. For Southern people in general (Tay Ninh in particular), the village Thanh Hoang is a deity who always protects and protects all villagers to have a good, fulfilling and happy life. The majesty of the communal house, in addition to its religious roots, is also the crystallization of the "sacred soul of rivers and mountains", built over many generations, with blood and sweat to explore and protect village land. With that meaning, the historical relic of Hiep Ninh communal house is not only a sophisticated architectural work but also shows the gratitude of Tay Ninh people to the village's Thanh Hoang. Hiep Ninh communal house Tay Ninh is one of the ancient communal houses with extremely unique architecture that still exists today with a curved roof, covered with new, even, red and bright tiles. This place also preserves the massive features of dense, sophisticated and highly valuable sculptural decorative motifs.

In the book Tay Ninh historical relics and scenic spots of the Provincial Museum (2001), it is written that the communal house's construction time was "around 1880", but did not cite the exact source. In 2021, the Tay Ninh Provincial Museum made a report on "Results of the inventory of Han Nom writing materials" which also mentioned the information: "Hiep Ninh Communal House was established during the land opening period, around the mid-19th century…” Going back in time, the ancient communal house has quite simple architecture, built of rattan, bamboo and cork.

Compared to the current ancient communal house, the following appearance When renovating for the first time there is not too much difference. This gives us a rather interesting historical inference, that is, the ancient communal house was certainly solidly built before the renovation in 1901, partly verifying the authenticity of the information about the ancient communal house's construction. before the 1900s. The hundred-year-old communal house is not only a relic but also a witness to a glorious history. During the historic August Revolution general uprising in the fall of 1945, the youth vanguard force gathered here, standing side by side with the revolutionary masses to overthrow the yoke of fascist colonial rule. build a new revolutionary government. In particular, during the period of 1959 - 1960, Hiep Ninh communal house was also the base of the Tay Ninh Provincial Party Committee led by comrade Hoang Le Kha, trusted and supported by the people.

The US Embassy relics, also known as the "White House of the East", are the origin of sinister military and political plots aimed at long-term annexation of Vietnam. The relic site is a 5-storey building built Built in modern architecture, located at the corner of Mac Dinh Chi - Le Duan Street, Ben Nghe Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, on a plot of land nearly 5,000 square meters. Previously, the US embassy was located at 39 Ham Nghi Street. At around 10:00 a.m. on March 30, 1963, the US embassy on Ham Nghi Street was hit with explosives by the F21 Commando team, collapsing three floors: 1, 2, 3, so the US decided to rebuild it. Construction began on the building in 1965, most of the materials and construction machinery were transported from the US, under the control of American engineers. According to the design, the building is surrounded by 7,800 Taredo stones that can withstand mines and artillery shells. The main door is equipped with thick steel, the other doors are blocked by a special thick bulletproof layer. All doors use automatic systems, including iron doors blocking the way to the upper floors. Inside the building there are 140 rooms with 200 staff serving day and night. In addition, next to the building is also built an additional row of houses called the "Norodom" area exclusively for C.I.A. employees. When inaugurated, the building had only 3 floors. At the end of 1966, two more floors and a terrace were built to serve as a landing place for helicopters. Surrounding the building is a 3m high wall, at both ends of the wall close to Le Duan Street, 2 high blockhouses are built, guarded day and night. The Embassy was completed in September 1967 with a defense system such as a fortress with 60 guards, a bomb shelter, and a radar screen system to control the facade. Immediately after the building was completed, on September 24, 1967, thousands of students flocked to the gate of the US Embassy to fight for "America to stop bombing the North", "America to go home" and issued a notice denouncing the US for "trampling and seriously violating the right to self-determination of the Southern people".

Another equally humiliating event for the US Embassy was the chaotic escape that occurred on April 29 and 30, 1975 by the US and its accomplices. Faced with the rapid attack of the Vietnamese army and people in the historic Ho Chi Minh campaign, over 1,000 Americans and more than 5,000 pro-American Vietnamese jostled, pushed, and kicked each other to compete for a place on the terrace of the building. building to be rescued by helicopter.

After consulting, the army commanders united to attack the enemy's post. Immediately the troops headed straight to Fort Hoc Mon, where District Chief Bui Ngoc Tho resided. Two insurgents named Nghe and Kinh volunteered to enter the front gate and sacrificed their lives. Insurgents from all directions rushed into the Fort like water bursting its banks. Faced with the power of the insurgents and the masses, the soldiers in the Station no longer had the spirit to resist and fled in disarray. The insurgents completely occupied the inside of the station, but upstairs, the enemy still stubbornly used guns to shoot sporadically, at the same time calling Saigon and Thu Dau Mot for emergency help. Because he was eager to capture the name of Tho District, comrade Do Van Day climbed up to the upper floor of the Station by clinging to the gutter. Halfway up, he was hit by bullets, the comrade fell and died later. The battle was at a standstill when enemy reinforcements arrived. Unable to hold out, the insurgents withdrew from the town, dispersed to the villages, the armed forces withdrew to Ben Do hamlet (Tan Phu Trung) and then moved to My Hanh hamlet (Duc Hoa).
