On September 11, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Quang Tri province announced that the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has signed a decision to rank the Long Dai Ferry Pier II relic and Song Trung Temple along with the tombs of Hoang Vinh To and Hoang Vinh Du as national relics, marking the heroic history and great contributions of previous generations.

This was a vital traffic hub, contributing significantly to the support work from the Northern rear to the Southern front line.

Along with that, Song Trung Temple and the tombs of Hoang Vinh To and Hoang Vinh Du (Tan Gianh commune) were also ranked as National Monuments. This place worships the father and son Hoang Vinh To and Hoang Vinh Du, great heroes of the post-Le dynasty, who contributed to protecting their homeland.

The ranking of these two relics is not only a deep gratitude to those who sacrificed and contributed to the Fatherland, but also contributes to educating the tradition of patriotism, fostering national pride for today's and future generations, and at the same time creating an important foundation for the work of preserving and promoting the value of cultural heritage.
