Quang Tri is located in the Central Vietnam near the crossways
between North and South Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. Several different
minorities populate this province (Kinh, Bru-Van Kieu).
Famous sites in Quang Tri include Quang Tri Citadel and the holy
land of La Vang. Violent battles took place in Quang Tri during
the war against the Americans; such battles have left revolutionary
vestiges such as Hien Luong Bridge, Tung Gate, and Vinh Moc underground
tunnels.
