Hue to Vinh Moc tunnels

During the Vietnam War, esp. between 1968 and 1972, Vinh Moc found itself in what the USA had designated “free fire zones”, where anything that moved was treated as a legitimate target. Constant carpet bombing by B-52s made life above ground impossible. So while some inhabitants fled, others dug in.Thus a whole village was relocated underground at Vinh Moc. Using only primitive tools, a network of some 2 miles (3 km) of underground passages was dug out. The heavy clay earth made it possible to dig deep into bomb-proof levels. The inhabitants only ventured outside to tend their fields (or what US bombing had left of them). Village life otherwise continued in the tunnels, which were comparatively comfortable

Hien Luong Bridge and the Ben Hai River will be an enduring symbol of the everlasting desire for peace, national independence and reunification.The Geneva Agreements on Vietnam signed in 1954 divided the country into North and South Vietnam at the 17th Parallel where the Ben Hai River runs through the central province of Quang Tri. The temporary division was only expected to last two years, but in fact it stood for 21 years through the great struggle for national reunification.Throughout this prolonged period, the Hien Luong Bridge in Vinh Thanh village in Vinh Linh district of Quang Tri province became a symbol of division, expectations and the pain of loss.

The bridge represents the desire for national reunification. The soldiers and people of Quang Tri, and all of Vietnam, struggled bravely, loyally and heroically, leaving behind glorious pages in the history of the fight to achieve the current national independence.
