In photos: Pha Din Pass

09 May 2011 | 01:26:00 PM

Pha Din Pass holds an important and heroic part in history, and for many recalls the courage of Vietnamese soldiers at Dien Bien Phu.

 
 
 

 

 

The 32-km pass in the northern province of Son La was a key road to transport weapons and food to the soldiers who fought the battle at Dien Bien Phu, which led to the historic victory on May 7, 1954.

To commemorate the anniversary we give you some photos of the pass today.
