Hiep Ninh Communal House
Dinh Hiep Ninh is located in Quarter 4, April 30 Street, Ward 3, Tay Ninh and only about 4km from the city center. The people of Tay Thanh are always proud of a long-standing architecture that has been built for more than 100 years, not only with impressive sculpture but also associated with glorious historical periods of the Vietnamese people. Hiep Ninh Communal House worships the village's Thanh Hoang Tran Van Thien - the person who immigrated, reclaimed land and established hamlets, preserved land and protected the border. At the Tay Ninh Museum today, King Khai Dinh's decree made of precious silk fabric, embroidered with pearls and brocade, is still preserved on March 18, 1917. According to folk beliefs, village communal houses are places that clearly demonstrate the values of cultural life. For Southern people in general (Tay Ninh in particular), the village Thanh Hoang is a deity who always protects and protects all villagers to have a good, fulfilling and happy life. The majesty of the communal house, in addition to its religious roots, is also the crystallization of the "sacred soul of rivers and mountains", built over many generations, with blood and sweat to explore and protect village land. With that meaning, the historical relic of Hiep Ninh communal house is not only a sophisticated architectural work but also shows the gratitude of Tay Ninh people to the village's Thanh Hoang. Hiep Ninh communal house Tay Ninh is one of the ancient communal houses with extremely unique architecture that still exists today with a curved roof, covered with new, even, red and bright tiles. This place also preserves the massive features of dense, sophisticated and highly valuable sculptural decorative motifs. Up to now, there are no documents or historical books that accurately confirm the date, month, or year of establishment of the ancient communal house. In the book Tay Ninh historical relics and scenic spots of the Provincial Museum (2001), it is written that the communal house's construction time was "around 1880", but did not cite the exact source. In 2021, the Tay Ninh Provincial Museum made a report on "Results of the inventory of Han Nom writing materials" which also mentioned the information: "Hiep Ninh Communal House was established during the land opening period, around the mid-19th century…” Going back in time, the ancient communal house has quite simple architecture, built of rattan, bamboo and cork. However, at the Tay Ninh Museum, there is still a panoramic photo of Hiep Ninh communal house which was renovated and renovated for the first time in 1901 and the second time in 1910. Compared to the current ancient communal house, the following appearance When renovating for the first time there is not too much difference. This gives us a rather interesting historical inference, that is, the ancient communal house was certainly solidly built before the renovation in 1901, partly verifying the authenticity of the information about the ancient communal house's construction. before the 1900s. The hundred-year-old communal house is not only a relic but also a witness to a glorious history. During the historic August Revolution general uprising in the fall of 1945, the youth vanguard force gathered here, standing side by side with the revolutionary masses to overthrow the yoke of fascist colonial rule. build a new revolutionary government. In particular, during the period of 1959 - 1960, Hiep Ninh communal house was also the base of the Tay Ninh Provincial Party Committee led by comrade Hoang Le Kha, trusted and supported by the people. Hiep Ninh communal house was recognized by the state as a Historical and Architectural - Artistic Monument on October 12, 1993. Source: Tay Ninh Tourism

Xa Temple
Xa Temple (Thuong An 2 village, Song An commune, An Khe town) belongs to Tay Son Thuong Dao Special National Monument Complex. Through many historical changes, the temple with many thrilling legends is still preserved by the people. Every year, on holidays and Tet, people in the area hold offerings to pray for gods to bless them with a peaceful, prosperous, and happy life. In the middle of a large plot of land, the Snake Temple is nestled under a row of ancient trees. On the left of the temple, there is a stele inscribed: Xa Temple belongs to the Tay Son Thuong Dao relic complex, the early base of the Tay Son peasant movement (1771-1773); This is where Nguyen Nhac cut a snake to take blood to sacrifice to the flag when sending his troops to the plain. Over the past 250 years, people in the Tay Son Thuong region have still passed down many thrilling stories related to Mieu Xa, the snake god. Legend has it that after a period of preparing strong soldiers and generals in Tay Son Thuong, in the year of the Snake (1773), the three Tay Son brothers (Nguyen Nhac, Nguyen Hue, Nguyen Lu) marched down to the plain. The army reached the beginning of Mang Pass (An Khe Pass), when a very large snake jumped from a tree to block the road. Among the generals, there were people who thought this was a bad omen and suggested withdrawing troops. Nguyen Nhac determined not to retreat but to move forward, draw his sword, cut off the snake's head, and use his blood to sacrifice to the flag. Down in the plain, the insurgents surrounded and defeated Quy Nhon citadel. After this victory, Nguyen Nhac had his soldiers build a temple to worship the snake god at the top of Mang pass. Contrary to the snake-slaying anecdote, folklore also holds that in 1773, Nguyen Hue commanded an army from the Upper Path to the Lower Path. At the beginning of An Khe pass, I saw a pair of ebony snakes lying in the middle of the road. Seeing that, Nguyen Hue immediately got off his horse and clasped his hands in prayer. As soon as his prayer ended, two snakes raised their heads and slithered forward. After walking a while, a snake crawled into the bushes along the road. When it came back, it held a dragon sword in its mouth and gave it to Nguyen Hue. Whenever going into battle, King Quang Trung-Nguyen Hue often used dragon swords to fight the enemy, winning many famous victories such as Rach Gam-Xoai Mut, Ngoc Hoi-Dong Da. To commemorate the snake god's gratitude, the king ordered people to build a temple at the top of Mang pass. In the past, the Snake Temple was built of bamboo leaves, surrounded by old forests. In 1957, people held a ceremony to ask the snake god for permission to move the temple to its current location to facilitate care and incense. “During the years of resistance against the French colonialists and American imperialists, many times, Mieu Xa was burned down by the enemy. But later, people immediately rebuilt it to have a place to worship the snake god. On February 20 and August 20 of the lunar calendar, people in the area and the Temple Management Board organize offerings to Quy Spring and Quy Thu according to traditional rituals; Every month, worship on the full moon and the first day of the year to pray for favorable weather, good crops, prosperous people's lives, and the local socio-economic development.

Complete liberation of the People of 18 Betel Garden Villages. After defeating Chi Hoa Fort, the French colonialists built a 3-storey wooden house here to use as a military post. When Tran Tu Ca took office as Governor of the Palace, he used the Station as the Palace of Binh Long district. Originally a cunning drunkard of the French colonialists, Tran Tu Ca was led by a group led by Mr. Phan Van Hon (Quan Hon) and Nguyen Van Qua (Chanh Lanh Binh) of nearly 1,000 insurgents who came to burn the District Palace, captured and head cut off in the middle of the market. That was February 8, 1885, At Dau Tet. Afterwards, Hoc Mon District Palace was rebuilt with a blue stone foundation, brick walls, and a defense system from the upper floors to the fence. The architecture is similar to the Military Fort, so the locals call it Hoc Mon Fort. Tran took over from Tran Tu Ca as Governor of Ngon district, moving to Tra District and then Tho District. This was a long period of time when the people of the Hoc Mon region suffered from many cruel and despicable scenes from the French colonialists and their oligarchic henchmen mentioned above. With the indomitable tradition of Hoc Mon people. On June 4, 1930, around 6 a.m. in front of the District Palace, hundreds of Hoc Mon people protested demanding "abolition of poll tax, reduction of license and market taxes, and granting land to poor farmers." Tra District invited the leaders into the Palace to negotiate, but they cunningly arrested them, including Mr. Le Van Uoi (Secretary of Tan Thoi Nhi Commune), who was the leader of the protest. People were undaunted and fiercely demanded that Tea District release those detained. The protest group became more and more crowded, the fighting spirit spread somewhat, causing Tra District to give in. On the one hand, they released the detained people, on the other hand, they called the officials in Saigon for help. 2 hours later, the struggle was led by two men, Blachole and Nobbot, who opened fire on the protest group, causing many casualties. But the most impressive historical event at Hoc Mon District Palace was the Southern Uprising on November 23, 1940. Hoc Mon Fort is very solid, built of green stone like a fortress, about 15 meters high, has a gun emplacement and a defense system with battlements guarded by a platoon of green soldiers. On November 22, 1940, France reinforced one more platoon to deal with the situation. On the afternoon of November 22, 1940, Mr. Do Van Coi's army broke into the town, disguised as civilians, ambushed behind the Station waiting for orders to rob the Station. Another army wing has the task of destroying bridges, cutting down trees blocking roads, and occupying offices and houses... The army wing from Phuoc Vinh An, Tan Thong, Tan An Hoi, Tan Phu Trung is led by Mr. Pham Van Sang and Dang Cong Binh commanded, started from Ben Do hamlet, attacked the house, killed 1 person, collected 4 guns, and took control of the situation here (Tan Phu Trung). Immediately this army was ordered to pull back to Hoc Mon. The Long Tuy Thuong army was commanded by Mr. Bui Van Hoat. 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). Although the attack on Hoc Mon Fort (later called Hoc Mon District Palace) failed, it left a deep impression in the hearts of all civilians admiring the courage of revolutionary soldiers in the fight against colonialism. steal the country. During the historic Ho Chi Minh campaign, at 7:00 a.m. on April 30, 1975, Hoc Mon town was completely liberated, the National flag fluttered above the District Palace, where District Chief Nguyen Nhu Sang and his gang sai has been running away since last night. Today, Hoc Mon District Palace is chosen as the District Museum, where many documents are displayed, illustrating the ups and downs of historical periods as well as the revolutionary fighting spirit of the army and people in Hoc Mon district over the past two years. resistance war against French colonialism and American imperialism.

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.

Surrounding the building is a 3m high wall, at both ends of the wall close to Le Duan Street, 2 high blockhouses are built, guarded day and night. The Embassy was completed in September 1967 with a defense system such as a fortress with 60 guards, a bomb shelter, and a radar screen system to control the facade. Immediately after the building was completed, on September 24, 1967, thousands of students flocked to the gate of the US Embassy to fight for "America to stop bombing the North", "America to go home" and issued a notice denouncing the US for "trampling and seriously violating the right to self-determination of the Southern people". But the outstanding event that happened at the US Embassy was the battle of the City Rangers during the General Offensive and Uprising in the Spring of 1968. The target of attacking the US Embassy was added on January 24, 1968 by Ngo Thanh. Van is in charge of general affairs.

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. This relic was granted a certificate of recognition by the Ministry of Culture on June 25, 1976. Currently, the US Embassy building has been demolished and a new consulate in Ho Chi Minh City has been built, but next to it is a memorial stele forever remembering the achievements of the special forces soldiers who died in the battle. .
