Tan Yen district (also known as the ancient lower Yen The region) is a land with a rich historical and cultural tradition and a spiritual land with outstanding people.

Thi Gia, a good female general under the Trung Sisters; The communal house worships 18 dukes of the Duong family at Van Cau who helped the Mac dynasty expel the invaders; The cluster of communal house relics and Ha Pagoda worships Luong Van Van Ham, the first leader of the Yen The peasant uprising; Trung Temple worships Hoang Hoa Tham, the second leader in the Yen The peasant uprising; In particular, we must mention Tu Giap Pagoda, where many units were stationed and met during the resistance war against the French and Americans. Tu Giap Pagoda is located in Nha Nam town, a location considered as the northern gateway of Tan Yen district connecting three districts together: Tan Yen, Yen The district (Bac Giang province), Phu Binh district, Thai Nguyen province. Before 1945, this place belonged to Nha Nam canton, Yen The district, now belongs to Nha Nam town, Tan Yen district. Tu Giap Pagoda was built during the Le Dynasty in the style of grand domestic and foreign architecture, including 7 front halls, 5 middle halls, 3 triple treasures, 1 ancestral house, guest house, and nun's house. The system of statues in the pagoda is rich and complete, decorated purely in Vietnamese. The pagoda also has a bell weighing several hundred pounds. However, in 1885, to take revenge on the Yen The insurgents, the French colonialists frantically destroyed villages and pagodas to use wood to build their base. In 1886, the people of the four borders, including Nguon, Upper, Lower, and Bell, rebuilt the pagoda with the name Tu Giap because the four people joined hands to rebuild the pagoda. The new pagoda includes a front hall, a common house, a Buddha hall, an ancestral house, a monks' and nuns' house, a three-entrance gate with a bell tower, and spacious and orderly walls. In 1947, Tu Giap Pagoda was once again destroyed by the French colonialists when they swept through Nha Nam and attacked Yen The. At Tu Giap Pagoda, there was a clash between us and the enemy. The pagoda was severely damaged, leaving only the 7-compartment front hall, with bullet marks still on the pillars. Along with the flow of history, Tu Giap Pagoda and Nguon village of Nha Nam commune have experienced and "witnessed" many important historical events. This place converges essential traffic routes, can move towards the plains of Bac Giang, Bac Ninh and retreat to the mountainous areas of Thai Nguyen and Bac Kan. Therefore, Tu Giap Pagoda was chosen as one of the locations as an important revolutionary base of the Bac Giang Party Committee during the resistance war against the French colonialists. This is also the stationing and working place of the National Salvation Newspaper (March 1945), Bac Giang Postal Company (late 1945), Provincial Post Office and Ha Bac Police Company (now Bac Giang Provincial Police). In particular, Tu Giap Pagoda was the living and working place of the Area 12 Police from the end of 1946 to around April 1948. During the resistance war against the French, although it was attacked many times by the French colonialists, Tu Giap Pagoda was still a safe place for district, provincial and central agencies to choose as a place to open refresher courses, train and discuss plans. implementing the resolution to divide fields for people to increase production... During the resistance war against the US to save the country, Tu Giap Pagoda witnessed many farewell ceremonies for children who were going to join the army to fight on the southern front to contribute to the war. liberating the South and unifying the country. Through the ups and downs of history, Tu Giap Pagoda today is no longer the same, but only the front hall, middle pagoda building, and Tam Bao pagoda are made in the old style. In the pagoda, there are many Buddha statues made of lacquered wood and gilded with gold. Tu Giap Pagoda is not only a place for spiritual beliefs of the people in the area but also a place marked by revolutionary history. In particular, it is where the 6 things Uncle Ho taught the People's Public Security force were discovered. Here, comrade Hoang Mai - Director of Zone VII Police was honored to receive the letter from President Ho Chi Minh dated March 11, 1948, in which he especially kindly advised our police, Mr. peace of the people, serving for the people, knowing how to rely on the people to do everything will be done.

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.

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).
