Road 398, located at the gateway of the forward station of the Phon Xuong base area and the strongholds of the Yen The insurgent army. Leo Pagoda is called after the name of Leo village, Huu Xuong commune, Huu Thuong district, Yen The district, formerly Phon Xuong commune, Yen The district, Bac Giang province. The temple is located next to Road 398, about 25 km northwest of Bac Giang city. From Bac Giang city, follow provincial road 398 towards Bac Giang - Cau Go about 25km to reach the relic.

Ancient Leo Pagoda was built in an ancient complex of relics including communal houses and pagodas following the "pre-god, post-Buddhist" way of connecting the temple before the pagoda, all located in the forest of Leo hill looking south. The temple was built in the 16th century and has been renovated through many stages. During the Yen The uprising in the years 1897-1909, Leo pagoda and many other cultural, religious and religious works in the area were very interested in De Tham's money to repair and renovate them as places for cultural, religious and religious activities of the people. Yen The insurgents and local people. Over time, this relic complex is no longer as intact as before, the three-entrance gate, the communal house in front of the pagoda no longer exists, now only the pagoda remains located in the old location on Leo hill, Phon Xuong commune, district. Yen The. The relic's campus is large and beautiful, made even more ancient by ancient trees such as frangipani trees, hyacinth trees... The current architectural plan of the pagoda is shaped like a gong, including the front hall with 5 compartments and 2 wings, the bridge house with 3 compartments and the upper palace with 1 compartment and two wings. The roof frame architecture is made of sturdy ironwood, the system of roof rafters is linked in the style of a stack of gongs and beams. The architectural structures are carved with simple floral themes but still imbued with the color of ancient times. The pagoda is decorated with a complete system of Buddha statues according to the Truc Lam lineage. Documents and artifacts at the pagoda such as stone stele, ancient incense bowls of the Nguyen Dynasty, a system of Buddha statues, ancient trees in the relics... are all there. cultural historical value. The Yen The uprising broke out in 1884, the forested hills were used by the Yen The insurgents as strongholds, and temples and pagodas were used as advance stations and as a base for the insurgents to travel back and forth. Leo Pagoda is located near Ho Chuoi station, about 1km to the East. During the battles with the Yen The insurgents at Ho Chuoi station (1890-1891), Leo pagoda was the French military base to act as a stepping stone to attack Ho Chuoi station. Leo Pagoda is a place that marks many historical events associated with the Yen The insurgent army. During the second period of peace between the Yen The insurgent army and the French colonialists (1897-1909), Leo Pagoda still served as a frontline position, observing the French colonialists' incursions into the Phon Xuong base area. It is a point of contact for regular correspondence and correspondence of the insurgent army. The pagoda is also a place to welcome guests and a gathering place for patriotic soldiers. Therefore, during this time, Leo Pagoda received a lot of attention from De Tham, who gave money to repair and embellish. Also at Leo Pagoda, an incident that went down in folk legend happened, demonstrating the high vigilance of Hoang Hoa Tham. During the French colonial period, they wanted to negotiate a peace treaty with the Yen The insurgents, but they still had many internal conflicts. To resolve a problem still tied to the insurgents, the head of the province made an appointment with De Tham to meet at a place near Phon Xuong. That location was determined to be Leo Pagoda. Both sides did not carry weapons. The entourage stayed behind. The day before the meeting, the French agent went to sleep at Leo pagoda, De Tham slept in that village... After the moon set around midnight, there were noises in the forest, you had to pay close attention to see them. Twelve soldiers quietly crawled through the dense forest toward the hut where De Tham was lying. The next morning, everyone gathered outside the temple. People looked at each other anxiously and waited. There were no signs that De Tham had been murdered, so people had to split up to look for him. On the grass next to the village, at the foot of the blockhouse, 12 soldiers' bodies were seen lying side by side. The soldier's body lay on the outside, a knife stuck in his chest along with the peace treaty. The other corpses had their hands clasped together holding a piece of wood with the word "betrayal" written on it. After this incident, De Tham posted everywhere the insurgent's denunciation about the betrayal of the French invaders... In the past, Leo Pagoda had monks. About Hoang Hoa Tham's death, there is also a legendary story related to the abbot of Leo Pagoda. By 1913, the Yen The insurgent army had gradually disintegrated, De Tham retreated to hide in the Yen The forests, waiting for an opportunity to launch and rebuild the movement. During this time, the French colonialists spread the news to public opinion that they had killed De Tham. They put three heads in Nha Nam and said that among them was De Tham's head so that everyone could come and identify them. But in fact, people believe that it is not De Tham's head but the head of a monk of Leo pagoda. I don't know the truth, but through that detail it is enough to see the close connection between Hoang Hoa Tham and the temple. And legend still holds that the monk of Leo Pagoda died instead of De Tham. SOURCE: ELECTRONIC INFORMATION PORTAL DEPARTMENT OF CULTURE - SPORTS - TOURISM OF BAC GIANG PROVINCE

Build a brave and courageous fighting spirit, not afraid of sacrifice, determined to fight to the end to protect your homeland and country. This is the core, most important factor that determines the victory in the Battle of Banana Pit of the Insurgent Army. In particular, in the context of the early years of the Yen The uprising, the Insurgent Army with rudimentary weapons and equipment had to confront the French Expeditionary Force - a professional army equipped with weapons, equipment and supplies. modern means of warfare, so building political and spiritual factors and determination to fight for the Insurgent Army is of decisive significance. Realizing that, De Tham and the leaders of the Insurgent Army educated and fostered a spirit of patriotism and hatred for the enemy in the Insurgents. Accordingly, on the basis of a just war, De Tham taught about the suffering of people losing their country; clearly shows that the cause of suffering is due to the brutality of the invading French empire. Through practice, he showed everyone clearly the hypocritical and hypocritical face of the enemy army; that it was the French army who shot and killed civilians and burned down houses and fields. If you want to save the country and the family, you must rise up to fight the French and his Insurgents swear to kill the enemy to protect the people. That's why the Yen The uprising in general, and the Ho Chuoi battle in particular, the insurgents demonstrated a spirit of courage and strong determination that the enemy did not expect. That was when the enemy fiercely bombarded the station, but the insurgents did not flinch, waiting for the enemy to get very close before opening fire to destroy them, causing the enemy to panic and flee. Even in the third attack (December 22, 1890), the enemy urged European and African troops to use bayonets to attack our fortifications, but the insurgents remained calm, took control of the battle, and rose up to destroy the enemy. leaving them helpless, suffering heavy losses, forcing them to retreat. Not only did De Tham regularly foster patriotism and determination, but when dangerous situations occurred, De Tham also proactively and calmly encouraged the insurgents to fight. Typically, in the battle on January 9, 1891, when Ho Chuoi post was burned by enemy fire, De Tham used the loudspeaker to encourage: "Soldiers in the loyal army, in the indomitable army, in the The army will win. I am very pleased with you! Try to resist. Reinforcements are coming. You are invincible"1. That spiritual medicine promptly encouraged and encouraged the insurgents in the station to calmly, enthusiastically, and resolutely defend, while the forces in the forts, despite the hours-long shelling, still maintained their positions. fight; When the opportunity came (when the enemy infantry was approaching), we all rushed out of the fortifications and fought fiercely, destroying most of the enemy's forces and maintaining the battlefield. Later, researchers all believed that, at Ho Chuoi, the French army faced an opponent with surprisingly high fighting determination.2. Create a dangerous, continuous, solid posture, ensuring smooth defense and attack. Through many battles with the French army, the Insurgents have mastered the rules of operation, combat tactics, and the enemy's strengths and weaknesses. That is, fear of close combat, especially difficulty in maneuvering in difficult terrain; rely on artillery fire and when there are casualties, morale easily declines, etc. Firmly grasping that fatal weakness, the Insurgents Supreme Command advocates creating a solid defensive posture in the Yen The mountainous area. Accordingly, in a low-lying area of the Huu Thuong forest filled with wild bananas, the Insurgents built Ho Chuoi station as a semi-floating, semi-submerged fortification (to limit the enemy's firepower and artillery) as their headquarters. To support the main post, the Insurgents also set up two defensive fortresses (North and South) about 100m away from Ho Chuoi, creating a flexible position to protect and support each other. In addition, De Tham also sent people to set up a system of defense posts around Ho Chuoi, such as: Hom post, Skull Cave, Nua village, Vang village,... a logistics base in Vong Dong with a system of fighting villages (Duong Sat, The Loc, Luoc Ha, Cao Thuong) with many dangerous obstacles. Thanks to a solid posture, the Insurgents were able to detect and attack the enemy from near and far, consuming and destroying many enemy forces before they reached their main target. In particular, at Ho Chuoi, with its unique and dangerous position, the forest became an obstacle to the enemy's firepower and limited vision; If you get close to the base of the fort, you will be shot back from dangerous battlements, etc. The uniqueness of this posture is also shown by the system of submerged trenches (without banks) connecting points together and connecting to Go stream in the rear, creating a flexible maneuver position, while being able to attack the enemy. From the front, you can attack the flanks and rear of their formation. This explains why the enemy gathered large, elite troops, with many modern weapons, attacked from many directions, for many days, but all four attacks were unsuccessful.

Phon Xuong Fort is located in the center of Cau Go town. Here De Tham and the uprising command stayed the longest, directing the strategic and tactical direction of the Yen The insurgent army. Phon Xuong Fort is 30 km west of Bac Giang province; From Bac Giang city, follow National Highway 1A (old) through Thuong River bridge, turn right along Provincial Road 398, Bac Giang-Cau Go route. Phon Xuong Fort, also known as Don Go, Don Cu, is located on the south side of a nearly 20m high hill, nearly 800m south of Go stream. Now this hill is called Phon Xuong hill or Ba Ba hill in Cau Go town. This is a large-scale base with a different structure from Ho Chuoi post and other posts. The fort has an almost rectangular architectural plan running along the North-South direction, with an area of about more than an acre of Northern Vietnam including two citadels. The outer citadel starts from the eastern hillside and runs around the foothill to the northern hilltop, forming an arc that protects the inner citadel, 140m long, 0.80m thick and 4m high. The inner city walls are located on top of a roughly rectangular hill. The inner wall on the east side is 71m long, the north side is 85m long. The wall is made of rammed earth, 2m thick at the base, 3m high and 1m wide on the surface. Inside the wall, there are 3 different levels that can be shot standing or kneeling. There are battlements all around the wall. The outer wall slopes gently like a roof. Phon Xuong Fort has 3 gates: The main gate faces East and two side gates are in the South and North. The two side gates open to the surrounding forests. In particular, the northern gate connects to the forest of the remaining half of the hill. The two 1.50m wide side gates are no longer intact, the main gate is 15m from the north wall, 2m wide with 4 steps up and down. Inside the main gate, there is a guard station located on the northern side of the wall in a square shape of 2m on each side. Inside the main door there are two layers of protective earth walls and many battlements. The gates all have two doors, the outside gate and the inside gate, and are all made of ironwood. The outermost position of the station is the guard posts, followed by the auxiliary posts, the trench system and then the surrounding citadel. The distance between the two rings is 20m at its widest and 10m at its narrowest. Within the citadel is a large space including a system of houses, guest houses, warehouses... all are thatched houses with mud walls mixed with straw. Except for the square house that receives guests, it is built of bricks. From the north to the south of the citadel, respectively, are the houses of Hoang Hoa Tham and Ba Ba, the house has 5 rooms running west and east. The second house is square with four sides left empty and is used as a meeting place for Hoang Hoa Tham with generals and to receive guests. The next house consists of two rows located close to the West and East sides of the citadel, and is the residence of the insurgent army. Next, there are 8 kitchens and stables located close to the southern edge of the citadel running east-west, followed by a light pole and flag pole. The architecture of Phon Xuong Fort is a special architectural style. Not only does it meet the requirements of being a stronghold, it also flexibly handles combat mobility and meets the requirements of being a command post, a place for insurgent transactions. Over time, the rampart system and residential buildings in the citadel built with rammed earth are also easily eroded. Now the residential buildings in the citadel no longer exist, and the citadel walls are no longer intact as before. Particularly, the eastern part of the wall still retains many old architectural features. There are quite clear bullet holes in the citadel wall. In the citadel, a Ba Ba temple is currently built. Every year, on March 16 of the solar calendar, Yen The festival takes place on this relic complex. Around the late 80s of the twentieth century, Mr. Hoang Hoa Tham's daughter, Mrs. Hoang Thi The, came here and when she died, she was buried here, on the tombstone there was only the simple words: "Mrs. Hoang Thi The, born in 1901, died December 9, 1988". It can be said that Phon Xuong was the capital of the uprising, the starting place to expand the movement to localities. Here the insurgents fought bravely against a large-scale attack by the French colonialists led by Colonel Vat-tay on January 29, 1909. With those historical and cultural values, Phon Xuong Fort is one of 23 relics ranked as Special National Monuments in Decision No. 548/QD-TTg dated May 10, 2012 of the Prime Minister. .

Trung village, located in Ngoc Chau commune, Tan Yen district, is an ancient village associated with many memories of the hero Hoang Hoa Tham from childhood to adulthood. This place, in the past, used to be the place where Hoang Hoa Tham fought and played hide and seek, now it is a place to worship and commemorate him - a person who has made great contributions to his hometown of Bac Giang and the country of Vietnam. Whenever talking about Trung village, people often mention the memorial relic of famous person Hoang Hoa Tham. The relic site is about 20km northwest of Bac Giang city. This is a relic complex that includes works such as: communal houses, temples, pagodas, inns, residences and tombs of Hoang Hoa Tham's relatives. According to oral tradition of local elders: Dinh Trung was originally built by Mr. Hoang Hoa Tham in Tan Chau (Trung Ngoai). After that, Mr. Thong Luan moved the communal house to Trung Trong, adjacent to the front of Trung Pagoda. The ancient communal house consisted of a three-room vestibule connected to a one-room harem, forming a nail-shaped layout (J). In the past, Dinh Trung had two religious sects conferred on the village's Tutelary Gods by the Nguyen kings, Cao Son and Quy Minh Dai Vuong. After Hoang Hoa Tham passed away, to show respect and respect for the national hero, local people worshiped him in the communal house along with the village Tutelary God. Through time and war, Trung Communal House was seriously degraded and damaged. Now only the foundation in front of Trung Pagoda remains. After Hoang Hoa Tham was murdered, to show gratitude and respect to the talented general, the people of Trung village built a temple as a memorial place, near the relics of communal houses and pagodas of Trung village. . Since its construction until now, the temple has been regularly cared for by people, repaired, purchased worship objects, sculpted statues of De Tham... to pass down to posterity. Hoang Hoa Tham Temple is currently in front of the communal house relic area, Trung Pagoda, looking to the Southeast. Hoang Hoa Tham Temple consists of three compartments in a rectangular layout. Inside the central space is a 150cm high bronze statue of Hoang Hoa Tham, and on the left wall hangs a picture of Mr. De Tham's family and his children at Phon Xuong station. According to historical sources: Hoang Hoa Tham is also known as De Tham. His father is Truong Van Than, originally from Di Che village, Di Che commune, Tien Lu district, Hung Yen province. He was born into a Confucian family with a martial and patriotic tradition. Both father and mother participated in the uprising against the Nguyen dynasty and were murdered by the Nguyen dynasty. At this time, he changed his family name to Doan and Nghia and was raised by his uncle to escape the court's pursuit and changed his name to Thien. Hanging around in the Son Tay area, afraid that he wouldn't be able to escape, he carried his nephew and ran to Trung village, Ngoc Chau commune, Yen The district. Once again, he changed his family name to Hoang and named himself Quat, and his grandchild's name was Tham. Since then, Trung villagers still think they are father and son, but no one knows they are uncle and nephew. Because his family was poor, Mr. Quat had to let him be adopted by Mr. Ly's family in the village, while he worked as an embroiderer to make a living. However, from his youth until adulthood, Hoang Hoa Tham was closely associated with memories of Trung village and Yen The region. Born in a context where the country was invaded by foreign invaders, living in a locality where many leaders rose up to fight against the invaders and guarded dangerous places, they greatly influenced Hoang Hoa Tham's life. That's why people in the Yen The area still remember and tell quite clearly every story about Hoang Hoa Tham's childhood and adulthood.

Tourism). In terms of architectural and artistic value, Huong Cau communal house is probably second only to Lo Hanh communal house, "the first in Kinh Bac", Dong Lo commune of the same district. The communal house is located in the center of the village looking west, in front there is a communal lake, and further away is the Cau River surrounding. The communal lake is not only a place where water gathers, providing an ecological landscape, but also a place where many folk games take place during the communal house festival, wrestling, going for prayers, singing quan ho on boats...all taking place on the lake. communal house lake. On the left in front of the communal house gate, a village well still reflects water next to a corner of the rural market. No one knows how long the village well has existed, but many generations of people here have been very attached to their childhood memories next to the village well. A corner of the rural market also displays, sells and buys all kinds of village products. Like many other communal houses, the gate of Huong Cau communal house is built in the ritual style, including a main gate built with a pillar with square edges, the body of the pillar is covered with parallel sentences in Chinese characters praising the scene of the communal house and the people worshiped in the communal house. The top of the pillar is stylized in the shape of a garden fruit. Many visual elements, along with folk culture, are displayed here. The lower part of the pier's ear is made up of seams, the four sides are covered with four sacred animals: Dragon, lyre, tortoise, phoenix, four sacred animals with many meanings in Vietnamese religious culture. Huong Cau Communal House has a total area of 8,971 m2, the inner communal house area is 291.60 m2. The garden is large and green with shady trees. From a distance, the wide, low roof of Huong Cau communal house with curved blades hidden in the verdant canopy of the village's trees makes it easy to recognize that it is an ancient communal house. The communal house has a very unique architecture, the grand communal house looks like a dragon communal house, surrounded by a very airy wooden railing system, and a roof system with four curved blades. The two main roof sides and the two side roof sides are covered with funny-nosed tiles. The roof edge is built to create a straight strip of lemon flowers connecting the two ends of the roof pliers. The tip of the roof pliers is stylized in the shape of a dragon's head opening its mouth to grasp the edge of the roof. The dragon's tail is a thin strip that curves like a crescent moon. In addition to the aesthetic element, it also has the element of yin and yang. His father put into it valuable folk experiences. The dragon is a symbol of kingship and a symbol of rain clouds. The crescent moon is also a symbol of rain. The dragon's head grasps the edge of the roof, making it easy to imagine the image of a dragon whirring and spraying water. And that will prevent a fire from happening. From a scientific perspective, it is also very reasonable, and folk experience will make people always aware of water and fire in life. The bank is also built to create a strip of lemon flowers reaching the bend to connect with the bank. The edge of the goat is built to create a strip of lemon flowers running straight to connect with the four curved blades. The corners of the knife's head are decorated with a stylized dragon and phoenix shape with a curved shape. At the four corners of the knife's head, there are dragon heads making water as if spraying water on the edge of the river. The four curved corners of the knife's head not only bring the element of yin and yang but also make the house more elegant and soft. The ingenuity of the masons who built Huong Cau communal house, they built tough, strong but very elegant lemon flower strip edges and at the same time created four corners of curved knife heads to cover the edges of the strip, creating a soft floating roof. commercial. The great communal house has 3 rooms and 2 wings built on high ground. From a distance, you can see the roofs forming like a large boat facing down on the wooden frame for the roof. The flat, wide roof system and low structure create a large slope for the communal house roof. On the outside, it is easy to see the porch stripes running around the four communal roofs with 24 stripes. The front eaves are carved the most. The two ends of the middle stripe touch both sides. The main theme is the image of a nest dragon, a mother dragon, and a baby dragon, with details of a 4-clawed dragon and a round, fat body. In addition to dragon images, there are also human and beast images. The top of the porch on the left side has a dragon image on the inside, and there is an image of a fairy's hand with long slender fingers, long nails, holding a dragon sword. Near the dragon's tail, there is a human figure, naked body, belted around the waist, wearing a loincloth, lying on a wooden shelf, one hand resting on his head, the other hand resting on his knee, legs crossed in a five letter, looking very comfortable. Thoughts and faces are described in detail and exude a very cheerful and close feeling. The right side of the porch stripe is also covered with the main theme being a dragon with four clawed dragon details, part of the corner of the stripe has a very funny spirit animal image. The next two lines are also thickly carved with themes of dragons, swords and clouds. The remaining lines running around the four roofs are carved lighter and more sparse than the previous lines. The main carving themes are images of mother dragons, baby dragons, swords, clouds, and mother dragons always opening their mouths to grasp the roof of the ship. If in some other communal houses in the Northern countryside, at the beginning of the 18th century, the engravings of human images were absent, the folk features remained only in the animals close to the workers, then Huong Cau communal house still fully retains the close image of people and animals, retaining the aesthetics, preferences and emotions of the workers. Scenes of love between boys and girls next to the scene of "four sacred animals and four nobles". The royal art here is very strange and rough. We rarely see images of ferocious tigers, or stereotypical images of the four sacred animals and four precious animals, but instead there are images that are very everyday, close and full of folk vitality.

The interior part of the Tran family mausoleum is currently divided into two main parts: The first part is the mausoleum (grave) including 3 small huts facing the mausoleum facing the South, the other three sides are residential areas. In front of the mausoleum area, there is a mausoleum pond, a river trough and road 19. Around the mausoleum area there are a number of compound graves (Le Dynasty).

Statues of people and animals in Tran family mausoleums tend to be depicted close to reality (the size is the same as real people and horses). Currently, 4 statues of dancers have been brought to Bac Giang Museum to be displayed and introduced to visitors inside and outside the province to visit and study.

As a child, Thanh Thien was famous for his intelligence and talent. Growing up in the country's misery and humiliation under the domination of the Han Dynasty, this girl has since then nurtured a great ambition to take revenge for the country and society. Then she gathered her forces, stored food, trained soldiers and horses, and set up a base to wait for the opportunity to rebel.

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. This relic was granted a certificate of recognition by the Ministry of Culture on June 25, 1976. Currently, the US Embassy building has been demolished and a new consulate in Ho Chi Minh City has been built, but next to it is a memorial stele forever remembering the achievements of the special forces soldiers who died in the battle. .
