Phu Rieng rubber plantation belonging to Michelin Company was established in Phu Rieng village, Ba Ra district, Bien Hoa province (now belongs to Dong Phu Rubber Joint Stock Company). When investing in exploiting and developing rubber here, French capitalists recruited hundreds of thousands of people from the Northern and Central provinces to the South to work as laborers. With the support of the colonial government apparatus, French capitalists severely and cruelly exploited the labor of the laborers such as: beatings, salary cuts, torture, harsh working regimes, homeless, hungry, lacking clothes, living in "hell on earth", causing "For every rubber tree that grows, a worker falls". The workers only knew how to react in spontaneous ways such as cutting down rubber trees, protesting, fleeing... but all were severely suppressed.

Since then, Loc Ninh is the gathering place of Political, Military, Logistics agencies... Especially the House of Relations - Headquarters of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam. The house was built in 1911, as the office of the French rubber company Xeo - Xo, to manage the exploitation of rubber latex in Loc Ninh. The house is built in the style of stilt houses of ethnic minorities, so people in the area still call it "Cao Can" House. During the Nguyen Hue campaign (1972), the house was completely destroyed. In March 1973, in response to the needs of the work situation on the diplomatic front, the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam agreed to choose the location of the foundation of the "Cao Cang" house to build the revolutionary headquarters with Design drawings by architect Huynh Tan Phat. The house was built to welcome domestic and foreign diplomatic delegations, so it is called "The House of Relations".

The ground floor is built of solid concrete, used for meetings, mitting and is also where cultural and artistic activities take place. The upper floor is built of wood, surrounded by railings designed in the style of a stateroom, with a "5-roof, 4-roof" corrugated iron roof painted red.

Representatives of the four delegations sat in a large round table, the International Committee sat in a small round table, and four small tables in the four corners of the house were the seating positions of the four parties' attachés. All are under the flag of the National Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam. On both sides there are two stairs going up. Looking out from inside the house, the staircase on the right is the path of the Vietnam People's Army, the left is the path of the American military and the Republic of Vietnam. Choosing a square or round table for a meeting is also an issue of concern to all parties. When meeting at Camp David (Saigon) or meeting in Paris, the Four-Party Joint Military Committee used square or rectangular tables to sit at meetings, but when meeting at the House of Exchange, they chose round tables. Because a round table shows equality and respect between parties, but if it is a square or rectangular table, when one of the four parties stands up to speak in the meeting, it will be like that party is the chairman of the meeting. When using a round table, all parties are equal. The birth of Giao Te House has fulfilled its historical mission, being a testament to the defeat of American imperialism and its henchmen, in addition to the heroic and clever struggle of our army and people. on both military and diplomatic fronts in the struggle to protect national independence and unify the country.

The pagoda was built in the 12th century during the reign of King Ly Cao Tong (1176-1210). This is one of the few pagodas dating back to the Ly Dynasty until today. The pagoda is built on a high hill, with luxuriant trees, windy on all four sides, beautiful scenery, quiet, full of solitude, a place of meditation. In the past, this area was called Tieu Dao Mountain, and is commonly called Cam Forest, perhaps that's why the pagoda is famous as Cam Pagoda. According to inscriptions and genealogies, the pagoda has existed for a long time. In the 12th century, the crown prince, son of King Ly Cao Tong, donated more than a hundred acres of fields, two thousand francs of money to repair the pagoda, and 700 francs of merit for a banquet. worship easily. Assign martial general Nguyen to directly direct and mobilize donations to repair the pagoda. As a result, the pagoda was restored with "seven newly built closely spaced rooms, columns painted with bright flowers, bright jade colors, a high and precious palace, bright sunlight and moonlight, a splendid Buddha statue, and a poised lotus throne." , the big bell towers over the phoenix, the noble king holds the dragon, the splendor and majesty are clear...". The military general of the Nguyen family also had the merit of a thousand francs to buy more than a hundred acres of fields to donate to the pagoda for farming. In the 14th century under the reign of King Tran Anh Tong, Bao An Pagoda was given a lot of money to repair and embellish by Princess Hung Nuong. To remember his merits, like many other pagodas in the area, people built a shrine to Princess Hung Nuong in the pagoda. Having gone through the ups and downs of thousands of years of history, Bao An Pagoda is still at the old campus but has had many changes. Ancient architectural buildings such as the front hall, incense burner, upper palace, ancestral house, Hung Nuong princess shrine and mother shrine were demolished due to deterioration. Currently, the pagoda has been renovated and rebuilt on a large scale, with reinforced concrete architecture and tiled roof. The pagoda also preserves valuable relics and antiques such as: Dharma statues, altars, bronze bells, and stone stele. Among them, the most typical is the stone stele "Bao An Zen Tu Bi Bi Ky" (inscription of Bao An Pagoda's stele). Up to now, according to review, survey and statistical data, this is the only Ly Dynasty stele remaining in the province. The stele was engraved in December of the year Tri Binh Long Ung (1209) and re-engraved later, probably at the end of the 18th century, placed at Bao An pagoda. The stele was mentioned and published by many researchers in Ly Tran Poetry (Social Sciences Publishing House, H.1977) and Ly Dynasty Epitaph (VNU Publishing House, H.2010). This is the oldest stele in Vinh Phuc and one of the 18 Ly Dynasty stelae remaining in our country today. The stele is 1.4m high, 0.85m wide, 0.14m thick, placed on the back of a smooth-shelled stone turtle, its head protruding, its four-clawed feet spread out in all four directions. The stele is engraved on both sides with 50 lines including 1498 Chinese - Nom characters, sharp handwriting in the style of Ly Dynasty script, very beautiful.

Based on this stele, it can be seen that the construction and restoration of pagodas took place on Vinh Phuc land since the Ly dynasty. The construction and restoration of pagodas was encouraged, not prohibited, by the royal court and assigned to the mandarins and aristocracy to preside and organize. The construction and restoration of pagodas is also considered an important event in the spiritual life of the people, attracting the whole region and even the whole country to join in the merit. This proves that during the peak development of Buddhism during the Ly Dynasty, Vinh Phuc area was also a popular center of this religion. The special thing is that among the nearly 1,500 words on the stele, there are mixed Nom words, these Nom words are used to write people's names and land names. It is said that this is one of the oldest evidences of Nom script found in Vietnam. Before this stele, traces of a few Nom characters were only found in two places: on the bell of Van Ban pagoda, Hai Phong (year 1076), and in an inscription at the pagoda of Huong Non commune, Tam Nong district, Phu Tho province. (year 1173). Bao An Pagoda was ranked as a provincial historical-cultural relic in 1995.

The army of General Long Tuy Trung was commanded by Mr. Do Van Day and Le Binh Dang. At around 24:00 on the night of November 22, 1940, the sound of artillery fire had not yet been heard in Saigon. 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).

Famous for being intelligent, upright, and an assertive and strategic general, he was instrumental in leading troops to defend Da Nang when the French colonialists opened fire to attack and invade our country. Coming from a farming family, Mr. Ich Khiem soon showed his superior intelligence. After passing his bachelor's degree at the age of 15, he became a mandarin under the reign of King Tu Duc, held the position of Minor Phu Su, and was appointed Tri of Kim Thanh district, Hai Duong province. During his career as a mandarin, he achieved the highest title of Ta Thi lang of Infantry. With a straightforward, bold and somewhat hot-tempered personality, and born in a turbulent political era, Mr. Ich Khiem's career path encountered many storms and obstacles. He often confronted the tyrants and tyrants directly, and was forced to be dismissed from his position. At that time, he returned to his hometown to develop agriculture, buy and allocate land for people to farm, and instruct people to build roads, dig canals, and bring water for irrigation. In 1858, when the French colonialists attacked Da Nang and violated our country's sovereignty, the king called him to take up a new position, leading the army to pacify the country. Although he was originally a literary mandarin, the times made Mr. Ich Khiem become a martial mandarin. During his career as a general, he was dismissed many times, then made great achievements and was reinstated thanks to his undeniable military talent. However, in 1884, when he heard that King Tu Duc had passed away, he was imprisoned in Binh Thuan prison, the court was in chaos, and the scholar committed suicide at the age of 55. In early 1885, he was awarded the rank of Thi Doc. Up to now, Mr. Ich Khiem's talent, dignity and merit are still preserved in history books and are remembered and praised by people.
