Itinerary
Hien Luong Bridge and Ben Hai River are two “historical witnesses” carrying the pain of dividing the country into the North and South for more than 20 years. They are located on the banks of the relic cluster at the intersection of National Highway 1A and Ben Hai River The North belongs to the Hien Luong village, Vinh Thanh commune, Vinh Linh district. The South belongs to Xuan Hoa village, Trung Hai commune, Do Linh district, Quang Tri province.
Vinh Moc Tunnel (Địa đạo Vĩnh Mốc) an underground miniaturized village is the largest historical tunnel in the DMZ of Vietnam. Deep beneath the dark earth, hidden from screeching bombers and harbouring desperate soldiers, the people of Vinh Linh, Quang Tri lived for many years in the now famous Vinh Moc Tunnel. They survived, and even prospered in their makeshift underground community. During that time, 17 children were born in the tunnels, each of whose lives is a testament to just how perfect the complex network of caves and warrens were at protecting those forces within. As time goes by, it has become both a historical evidence and a tourist destination for discovering a heroic period of Vietnam’s history.
