Why Visit Ha Tinh’s Historical Relics?

A Window into Vietnam’s Resilient Past

Ha Tinh Province, located 341 km south of Hanoi on Vietnam’s North-Central Coast, is a treasure trove of historical and cultural heritage, attracting over 20,000 visitors annually. With a 137 km coastline and the Truong Son Mountain range, Ha Tinh’s relics, costing $1–$5 (25,000–125,000 VND) to explore, offer profound insights into Vietnam’s history, from wartime sacrifices to literary legacies. Sites like Nga Ba Dong Loc and the Nguyen Du Memorial Site reflect the province’s resilience and cultural depth, set against a backdrop of scenic landscapes. Ha Tinh’s tropical monsoon climate (dry season: November–April, 22–32°C or 71.6–89.6°F; rainy season: May–October, 24–36°C or 75.2–96.8°F) enhances visits with pleasant weather.

Legend Travel Group, with 17 years of sustainable tourism expertise, offers eco-conscious tours combining Ha Tinh’s historical relics with its beaches and cuisine, using electric vehicles and local guides. Contact us at WhatsApp: +84825862222 or email: sales@legendtravelgroup.com to book your cultural journey.

Administrative Update

As of July 1, 2025, Vietnam’s administrative reform restructured Ha Tinh’s districts into wards and communes. Use “Ha Tinh Ward” or specific commune names (e.g., Dong Loc, Tien Dien) for accurate navigation to relics.
