Quang Ngai Truong Luy Monument (ranked as a national relic on March 9, 2011), passes through the districts of Tra Bong, Son Tinh, Son Ha, Tu Nghia, Minh Long, Nghia Hanh, Ba To, Duc Pho. Truong Luy is a special type of large-scale relic, with closely related and inseparable relics such as ramparts - ancient roads - fortress/guard system and natural landscape. Truong Luy was built with materials mined on site such as hill soil, field soil, natural stone with many techniques of embankment, soil compaction, masonry, stone stacking... very typical of residents of the plain along the foot of the mountain. and the mountainous areas west of Quang Ngai. Because the ramparts are long and go through many different terrains, on flat terrain, the ramparts are built with soil, while on steep mountain slopes, the ramparts are built with soil on the inside and stone on the outside. Truong Luy relics in the high mountain area are still almost intact, especially the ramparts built of stone. According to researchers, across the ramparts, there are more than 70 relics of forts/fortresses built of stone or earth surrounded by moats. Most of these relics are still intact, including forts/fortresses such as Thien Xuan in Hanh Tin Dong commune (Nghia Hanh), Kim Long fort/fortress in Hanh Dung commune (Nghia Hanh) with quite large areas. According to relic records, the average height of Truong Luy Quang Ngai is 45m. Nghia Hanh district has the highest point with over 200m, mainly in passes and hills such as Phuoc Loc pass, in Hanh Nhan commune (Nghia Hanh) with 221m, Chim Hut pass in Hanh Dung commune (Nghia Hanh) with 227m... Terrain characteristics of the ramparts in Quang Ngai mainly run along the foot of the mountain and the back of the low hill. According to researchers, Truong Luy is a boundary but not a closed boundary. The floodway cuts across many rivers and streams, each crossing has a gate, guarded by a guard, allowing travel between the two sides. Travel is mainly for economic exchange purposes (Hre people buy salt, Vietnamese people buy rice, cinnamon and forest products), especially the market network located on the Vietnamese side. During peacetime, these posts/guards were the checkpoints for controlling trade and tax collection between the two regions. This is a special cultural feature of the monument. Archaeologists believe that this was not only a structure built for defense purposes, with military elements, but also a trade route between the lowlands and the uplands, between the mountains - plains and the sea. . In addition to its cultural and historical value, Truong Luy relics also have potential for tourism development, with ancient roads next to a long rampart, passing through residential communities with beautiful villages. , preserving many cultural identities of the nation.
