Go Thi Thung Tunnels

Go Thi Thung Tunnels

15km west of the center of Chi Thanh town (Tuy An), Go Thi Thung plateau (An Xuan commune) is about 400m above sea level, has a cool climate all year round, and gentle green trees and fruits. . On the top of this plateau, there is a large mound and a tunnel system of Phu Yen's army and people during the years of resistance against the US. This tunnel system has contributed to many battles that shocked the enemy and created resounding victories for our army and people. That day, faced with the strength of the enemy, the Phu Yen Provincial Party Committee and the Military Command of Region 5 decided to dig tunnels at Thi Thung mound. Construction started on May 10, 1964. The District Team and Provincial Team directly commanded An Xuan, An Dinh and An Nghiep communes to dig tunnels. By August 1965, Thi Thung tunnel was completed. After completion, the total tunnel length is 1,948m through Go Thi Thung, 4.5m deep, 0.8m wide. The entire tunnel has 486 wells, at the mouth of the well, a wooden beam is placed, and a camouflaged side door is left 20 meters away. Above the tunnel is a lookout with an observation deck. Surrounding the tunnel is a system of interconnected trenches running horizontally and vertically. When there is an enemy, we appear to fight, and after fighting, we withdraw, the enemy does not detect us and the people keep it absolutely secret and safe. When suffering heavy defeat on the battlefield, the US massively poured troops into South Vietnam. At the An Xuan plateau, many fierce battles took place. Our army and people achieved many resounding victories, making an important contribution to the victory of the "Local War" in the Southern battlefield. After liberation, traces of war on Thi Thung mound were still clearly printed by bomb craters, minefields and gunpowder. But now, the lands of the old battlefield have become greener, new rows of houses have sprung up, and the lives of the people here have gradually improved. Nowadays, few people who come to Thi Thung mound know that more than 40 years ago, this place was once a fierce battlefield, there was a hand-to-hand battle between our troops and the enemy, and few people know that Deep underground there was once a tunnel system dug by the people of An Xuan commune and surrounding areas... In 2009, Go Thi Thung tunnels were recognized as a national historical relic. It is known that, along with Cu Chi Tunnels (Ho Chi Minh City), Vinh Moc Tunnels (Quang Tri), Go Thi Thung Tunnels is one of the three major tunnels in our country.
