• Khe Sanh Combat Base - The Siege began on January 21, 1968, when the North Vietnamese bombarded the base with over a thousand mortar rounds, rockets, and heavy artillery.
• Vinh Moc Tunnel - Constructed in three levels (12, 15, and 23 meters deep), the tunnels took thirteen months to complete. From 1966 to 1971, three hundred people intermittently resided in the tunnels. Sixty-two families called the tunnels home, and remarkably, seventeen babies were born and spent their early years underground.

Visiting other places on Highway 1 and 9 to Vinh Moc and Khe Sanh:

Long Hung Church: This church in Quang Tri, Vietnam, endured eight continuous days of bombings by South Vietnamese and American forces during the Vietnam War. The church has remained untouched and essentially stands as it did immediately after the bombings, which turned it into a battlefield in 1972 between North and South Vietnam for 81 days and nights.

Doc Mieu Base: Little remains of this old American base except for a rusting tank and a sign. It once formed the backbone of the “Eagle Eyes of America” electronic monitoring fence.

Ben Hai River – Hien Luong Bridge of DMZ: Vietnam’s Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) is the area around the former border between North and South Vietnam.

Cua Tung Beach: The beach features sparkling green water, silky sand, and gentle breezes throughout the year. It’s a great spot to relax and take beautiful photos.

Rockpile: This hill was a Marine outpost built atop a massive outcropping. Though it’s inaccessible, it remains a prominent sight from the highway.

Dakrong Bridge & Ho Chi Minh Road: Located midway along Highway 9, it marks the starting point of Highway 15, one of the main branches of the Ho Chi Minh Trail leading south to the A Shau Valley.

• Hien Luong - DMZ Vietnam is the area around the former border between North and South Vietnam. Historically, it was a narrow strip of land extending from Laos to the coast, five kilometers on either side of the Ben Hai River, roughly along the 17th parallel.
