The Ba Dinh Uprising (1886 - 1887) was one of the largest and most typical struggles in the Can Vuong movement against the French colonial invasion at the end of the 19th century. Ba Dinh Historical Relic has been recognized as a National Historical Site since 1992. In March 1886, leaders of the Can Vuong movement in Thanh Hoa held a meeting in Dong Bien (Bong Trung now belongs to Vinh Tam commune, Vinh Loc district, Thanh Hoa) to discuss plans to fight against the French. The conference decided to assign Pham Banh, Dinh Cong Trang, and Hoang Bat Dat to be in charge of building the Ba Dinh base in the northern plain of Nga Son district. Ba Dinh base is the place to protect the gateway to the Central region and is a launching pad to attack the enemy in the delta. Ba Dinh is located in the northwest of Nga Son district, including three villages: Thuong Tho, My Khe, Mau Thinh located next to each other. Each village has a communal house and a common village. Ba Dinh is located between sunken fields and two rivers, Hoat River and Chinh Dai River, isolated from neighboring residential areas, especially during the rainy season. Stationed in Ba Dinh, the Can Vuong insurgents could control the river and easily move up to Bim Son and Dong Giao to control Highway 1. Ba Dinh's terrain was very favorable for building a strong defensive fortress. Certainly, Pham Banh, Dinh Cong Trang, and Hoang Bat Dat were assigned to build and command the Ba Dinh base. In just 1 month, the Ba Dinh base was completed, surrounding the three villages is a system of earthen valleys, in some places the base is 9-10 meters wide, the wall is lined with bamboo poles, inside is a layer of mud and sand. Straw makes a very effective target. It is impossible to see inside from the outside, inside there is a moat 4m wide, 3m deep, with sharp bamboo stakes. Across the sunken field is a dense bamboo wall that covers all three sides: North, West, and Southwest. At first, the Ba Dinh insurgent army only had about 300 people, but was later supplemented. The weapons of the insurgents were muskets, rifles, bows, crossbows, and a few cannons organized into 10 squads, each squad of about 30 people led by a soldier. The supreme leader of the Ba Dinh base is Military Affairs Officer Pham Banh, while the direct commander Dinh Cong Trang is considered the soul of the Ba Dinh uprising. The Ba Dinh insurgent force sometimes numbered up to twenty thousand people, recruited from three villages and Thanh Hoa regions, including Kinh, Thai, and Muong people. The insurgent army has 10 groups, each group has a commander. Regarding weapons, the insurgents armed themselves with muskets, spears, and bows and crossbows. In 1886, the insurgents continuously attacked palaces, cities, and district capitals, blocking convoys and individual troops, causing many losses to the French army. On March 12, 1886, taking advantage of the market day, he attacked the Thanh Hoa Legation. And then, the insurgents attacked many citadels, blocked convoys, and caused a lot of damage to the French army. From December 18, 1886 to January 20, 1887, Colonel Brissand led 76 officers and 3,500 troops to siege and attack Ba Dinh base. The French army fired up to 16,000 cannonballs within a day, turning the Ba Dinh base into a sea of fire. The Ba Dinh insurgent army fought for 32 days and nights against an enemy 12 times larger, equipped with modern and advanced weapons. In this extremely fierce battle, the insurgents showed bravery and cunning, but because of the enemy's strong firepower, the Ba Dinh insurgents suffered many casualties. To avoid being completely destroyed, the Ba Dinh insurgents opened a bloody road through the dense siege of the French army and withdrew to the Ma Cao base. On the morning of January 21, 1887, the French army captured Ba Dinh. After that, the French army completely destroyed all three villages of the Ba Dinh base, continued to send troops to pursue the insurgents in Ma Cao, and then destroyed this post on February 2, 1887. After that, a large number of insurgents withdrew to Thung Voi, Thung Khoai, then to western Thanh Hoa to merge with Cam Ba Thuoc's insurgent army. In the end, leader Nguyen Khe died in battle. Pham Banh, Ha Van Mao, Le Toai committed suicide... Hoang Bat Dat was later captured and beheaded by the French because of his indomitable spirit and not surrendering to the enemy. Dinh Cong Trang fled to Nghe An. The French army offered a very high reward on his head. In October 1887, because of greed for reward money, the chief of Chinh An village secretly informed the French army to arrest and kill Dinh Cong Trang. The Ba Dinh uprising and Ba Dinh leaders are highly appreciated by history. President Ho Chi Minh later chose the name Ba Dinh to name Ba Dinh Square, where the Declaration of Independence was read, giving birth to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.

Con Moong Cave: located in Upper Triassic limestone mountains of Dong Giao formation (Tađg), about 240 million years old. Con Moong Cave has an average strata thickness of 9.5m - including 10 layers with different structures. From layer 1 to layer 6 (depth from 1m - 6m), many working tools, animal bones, and mollusk shells were found.

Hoa Binh - Bac Son. From 7,000 years ago today, when the sea receded and there was little rain, people began to leave the caves and gradually occupied the plains and coastal areas, establishing the first marine cultures in the Prehistoric period. Remains of the top cultural layer at Con Moong include ground axes and rudimentary hammered ceramics compatible with the earliest layer of the Da But culture, showing that the migration of Con Moong cave residents gradually moved down to the plain. along the coast, establishing the Da But culture. - In parallel with completing the excavation of Con Moong cave, scientists have surveyed, excavated and researched caves around the Con Moong cave area. This shows that Con Moong is the most ancient relic, with a certain relationship with surrounding relics at different levels. From Con Moong, over tens of thousands of years, due to changes in climate and weather leading to expanded living environments, and the increasingly advanced industry of making tools for work and living, primitive people have separated from each other. out in groups, moving to Mang Chieng cave, Diem cave, Lai cave, Moc Long cave, Moc Long rock roof, Bitter Cave (Ancient Man Cave), Bo Giao cave...

The US Embassy relics, also known as the "White House of the East", are the origin of sinister military and political plots aimed at long-term annexation of Vietnam. The relic site is a 5-storey building built Built in modern architecture, located at the corner of Mac Dinh Chi - Le Duan Street, Ben Nghe Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, on a plot of land nearly 5,000 square meters. Previously, the US embassy was located at 39 Ham Nghi Street. At around 10:00 a.m. on March 30, 1963, the US embassy on Ham Nghi Street was hit with explosives by the F21 Commando team, collapsing three floors: 1, 2, 3, so the US decided to rebuild it. Construction began on the building in 1965, most of the materials and construction machinery were transported from the US, under the control of American engineers. According to the design, the building is surrounded by 7,800 Taredo stones that can withstand mines and artillery shells. The main door is equipped with thick steel, the other doors are blocked by a special thick bulletproof layer. All doors use automatic systems, including iron doors blocking the way to the upper floors. Inside the building there are 140 rooms with 200 staff serving day and night. In addition, next to the building is also built an additional row of houses called the "Norodom" area exclusively for C.I.A. employees. When inaugurated, the building had only 3 floors.

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.

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.

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.

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.
