    %%With Đông Hà as provincial capital, Quảng Trị is a province in Vietnam's central coast where are located Bến Hải River and Hiền Lương Bridge which have gone down the national history as a temporary borderline in 1954 when the country was divided into two parts under the Geneva Agreement on Vietnam. The division lasts for nearly 21 years until the Vietnam War ended in 1975. During the Vietnam War, Quảng Trị was one of the fiercest battlegrounds with repeated bombing and military attacks. At present, Quảng Trị is one of the places in the country which house most historic relics. These are some tourist attractions of Quảng Trị :
    Cổ Thành Quảng Trị ( Quảng Trị ancient citadel) : This citadel was built in 1824 by the order of King Minh Mạng. In 1972, during the phasing out of the American intervention in the Vietnam War, the liberation army seized the citadel from the Saigon troops. The stationing liberation troops had to suffer the heaviest and longest artillery and bombing attacks ever launched by the Saigon army to recapture the citadel. The citadel located in an enclosed area of about two square kilometres had to endure the velocity of bombing and artillery explosion which was equal to eight times the velocity of the atomic bomb dropped by the US in Hiroshima in Japan in 1945. 36 nights and days later, the liberation forces had to withdraw from Quảng Trị Citadel. Visitors can imagine the standing brick walls as some sort of war memorials to the martyrs in the fight at Quảng Trị Citadel.
    Nghĩa trang Trường Sơn ( Trường Sơn Cemetery) : Situated in Gio Linh district, Trường Sơn cemetery has a big war memorial, a stela house and a group of statues, as high as 10 metres, depicting the martyrs who had sacrificed their lives for national liberation and independence. The big stela bears an inscription highly evaluating the sacrifices and merits contributed to the national liberation war by those who had kept the Hồ Chí Minh Trail connected all the time for the continuation of material and manpower supply from the north to the battlefields in the south.
    Đường mòn Hồ Chí Minh ( Hồ Chí Minh Trail) : Hồ Chí Minh Trail, or Trường Sơn Route during the Vietnam War, was initially a small mountain path. Later it was expanded into a major road system comprising routes for foot soldiers, roads for heavy motorised vehicles. Hồ Chí Minh Trail was the most important supply route for the liberation forces during the Vietnam War to transport war materials and manpower from North-Vietnam to the southern battlegrounds.%%Bến Hải River - Hiền Lương Bridge : Another name of Bến Hải River is Rao Thanh River. The portion where Hiền Lương Bridge spans across is about 170 metres. Hiền Lương Bridge was built by French sappers in 1950. Under Geneva Agreement on Vietnam signed in 1954, Bến Hải River on the 17th parallel has been selected as a temporary demarcation line separating the country into two parts for military regrouping purposes. The DMZ area had Hiền Lương Bridge divided into two parts which served as the border gates to both sides. Nowadays, Hiền Lương Bridge has become a historic landmark and a great tourist attraction. The existence of the bridge reflects the miraculous strength of the Vietnamese people throughout the course of the 20-year-long resistance war for national independence, freedom and reunification of the entire Vietnam.
