Yen Lap Lake is the largest irrigation project in Quang Ninh province. After more than 30 years of exploitation and use, Yen Lap Lake is still effective, not only contributing to reducing droughts and floods but also also plays an important role in providing water sources to serve the socio-economic development of Ha Long city, Uong Bi city and Quang Yen town. Viewed from above, Yen Lap Lake appears with a gentle blue color, surrounding the lake are undulating mountains, and small islands emerge in the middle of the lake, creating a natural, captivating look. The cluster of historical and scenic relics of Loi Am Pagoda - Yen Lap Lake has created a poetic landscape, which has been famous since ancient times, and is now even more famous to attract visitors from all over the country. Loi Am Pagoda is located in a semicircular area, extending from the top to the middle of the mountain. In front is the lake, following the "leaning on the mountain, facing the water" position that our ancestors once compared to "the dragon flanking the tiger, the left side shielding, the right side supporting, there are sacred mountains converging, there are mystical universes overlapping". . Loi Am Pagoda is at an altitude of 395m above sea level, built in the Southeast direction, which is the direction of wisdom and spirituality. The remaining traces left today are that Loi Am Pagoda was built according to the architectural structure of "foreign internal affairs", a typical example of Le Dynasty architecture. From the foot of Loi Am mountain up to the temple gate along Chua Ngu street, with a length of about 850m and an average width of 2.5m. On both sides of the pagoda there is a stream of injustice that splits into 2 branches. When passing through the pagoda, it merges into a stream. The stream has water flowing all year round, originating from the top of the mountain and pouring into Yen Lap Lake. Rows of ancient trees planted in front and around the pagoda are a symbol of elegance and longevity. In addition, the pagoda is also rich with rows of banyans, brasses or brooches, creating a sacred place for meditation but also very close to mundane life. Vietnamese feudal kings often came here to visit and praise. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, when the French colonialists invaded our country, all pagodas, temples, and shrines were seriously destroyed. As for the right-hand front street, there is still a wall 1.5m high, 30cm thick, built entirely of red bricks. The rear of the three treasures area still retains a wall 1.2m high and 20cm thick. Next to the pagoda on the right is a tower garden made of fine-grained green stone, with a solid tenon grafting technique. The three-storey tower remains intact, with the words "Pho Minh tower" clearly written on top. The top of the tower is carved with a pedestal holding a Cam Lo water vase, gradually shrinking towards the top, radiating forever in the air, giving visitors the feeling of being transcended at the door of meditation. In front of the temple door, there is also a stone incense tree built in the shape of four pillars. On the incense roof, where the tips of the blades show a twisted pattern, to some extent, it symbolizes the wish for "favorable rain and wind". Also located in front of the pagoda on the left is a row of ancient stone stele consisting of 5 intact pieces. During each festival season, people and tourists cross Yen Lap lake to Loi Am pagoda. To feel the beauty here is to surf on a boat to enjoy the poetry and fresh air. The surface of Yen Lap Lake has no rushing waves of the sea, no natural caves like Ha Long Bay... But coming to Yen Lap Lake is to find the serenity of a gentle landscape, water surface. Ripples in the gentle breeze can be seen all the way to the bottom, floating islands on the lake are interesting resting spots.

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.

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. At the end of 1966, two more floors and a terrace were built to serve as a landing place for helicopters. 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".

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.
