Quang Tri, a spiritual tourist area - both banks of Hien Luong - Ben Hai

Hien Luong Bridge and Ben Hai River are not only a place name on the map but also carry deep cultural and spiritual significance to the Vietnamese people.

For 21 years (1954-1975), Ben Hai River and Hien Luong Bridge were the boundary dividing the country into two regions, North and South. The image of "a river dividing the country in two" and "a bridge painted in two colors" was deeply engraved in the minds of many generations of Vietnamese people, evoking the pain of separation and loss of families and nations.

Despite being the border, Hien Luong Bridge and Ben Hai River are also places that strongly demonstrate the Vietnamese people's aspiration for national reunification. The struggles of the army and people on both banks, "not leaving an inch, not leaving a millimeter", and the efforts to overcome bombs and bullets to keep the national flag, have demonstrated the iron will and belief in the day of reunification.

Visiting Hien Luong - Ben Hai Bridge is a journey to find the roots, to remember the sacrifices and losses of previous generations. The Hien Luong - Ben Hai historical site is a living museum of a difficult but also extremely heroic period of history of the nation. This place educates the younger generation about the tradition of revolutionary struggle, about the value of peace and national unity.
