Deo Van Long mansion is located in Le Loi commune, Sin Ho district, Lai Chau province. According to the 1983 survey results of the Department of Culture and Information of Lai Chau province, this project began construction in 1916. The documents left behind about the mansion and the Deo family are still very primitive, but They all believe that all the work of choosing the direction, choosing the location for the main gate, the shrine, and the Dam house (ancestral church) were carefully considered by the Deo family, who hired a geographer. Two architects, one French and one Chinese, were invited to design and supervise, and materials were brought from the lowland provinces. Therefore, the architecture of the mansion has Western features blending Eastern looks, and is also a characteristic of Thai construction art and feng shui. The mansion has an area of about more than 1 hectare. Due to the need for defense, welcoming Indochina Government officials and to satisfy their luxurious lifestyle, the Deo family gathered people, soldiers, and workers for the job. Build a villa complex, located in a critical location, at the junction where the Da River, Nam Na River and Nam Lay Stream meet. Behind the mansion is a high mountain, in front is a confluence of rivers (Da River, Nam Na River and Nam Lay Stream) that can control the road to Phong Tho, Muong Te and down to Hoa Binh, Son La, as well as For example, through Dien Bien to Laos, the terrain is suitable for defending and fighting against the enemy. If they fail, they can retreat safely. In 1918, the mansion was completed with 8 main units: Main gate, Dam house, dining room, swing house, water tower, prisoner cellar, forest ghost shrine and another house with L-shaped face ( unknown purpose). In addition, there are a number of other supporting works such as surrounding walls, side gates, driveways leading to the main gate, long and narrow steps leading down to prisoners' cellars, granaries, boat docks, and cemeteries. The main house is built with two floors of red bricks, wooden floors, and a tiled roof separated from stone slabs, often called black stone (when first separated, the soft stone can be cut with a knife, but when exposed to sunlight, the stone will hard as porcelain).

In front of the main house, there is a large yard for dancing when Deo Van Long holds parties and receives guests. It can be said that the palace complex is an "impregnable fortress" of the Thai king. Speaking of Deo Van Long, he is the second son of Deo Van Tri and a lord of the Thai Autonomous Region in the Indochina Federation. The Deo family comes from an aristocratic lineage in Yunnan (China). They are not reactionaries but have lived together in harmony on the land of Lai Chau for a long time. In the late 19th century, responding to the Can Vuong movement, the Deo family stood side by side with the Black Flag insurgents to defend Son Tay and achieved many victories. However, after huge losses in the decisive battle along with suspicion and lack of internal unity, Deo Van Tri signed a permanent ceasefire treaty with the French army. Protected by the French Government, supported with money and weapons, France restored Deo Van Tri to govern the land of Sipsong Chuthai (12 Thai lands). In 1908, Deo Van Tri died, handing over military power to his son Deo Van Khang. After Khang died, Deo Van Long replaced his brother to take power. From here, with his brutal nature, Deo Van Long spread terror to the people in the area. In addition to sending soldiers to plunder and loot the wealth of the people in the area, the Thai king also built large boats, using the Da River as the main transportation axis to transport forestry and land products that he had robbed from the local people. They went to the lowlands to sell opium, tiger skins, leopard skins, bear bile, etc. then brought the goods up to sell to local people. After the liberation of Lai Chau town (1952), Deo Van Long fled to France in exile, and the mansion was destroyed by the people.

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.

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. The content of the memoir was composed by Wei Tu Hien in a parallel, parallel, and concise writing style. At the end of the memoir is an essay written in the style of Buddhist verse.

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).
