1/ Tan Trao

Tan Trao was where the First National Assembly of Vietnam was established and had the first meeting to decide that it was the right moment to start a General Revolt – the August Revolution which later led to the Declaration of Independence of Vietnam on 2-September-1945 at the Ba Dinh Square in Hanoi. The history of Vietnam changed the course from a colony to an independent country with political and military elements.

Besides, Tan Trao was where the OSS (or later CIA) got some time working alongside with President Ho Chi Minh.
