The Vietnam - Laos International Martyrs' Cemetery was built in 1976 on an area of nearly 7 hectares, the largest cemetery gathering graves of volunteer soldiers and Vietnamese experts who died in Laos. This is also the only cemetery named after two countries, two peoples of Vietnam - Laos, a symbolic work of loyal solidarity and iron cooperation between two brotherly peoples.
Up to now, the cemetery has received and cared for nearly 11,000 graves of heroic martyrs from 47 provinces and cities across the country who died on the battlefield in Laos to rest.

During the resistance war against the US, Truong Bon was the place where tens of thousands of young people traveled along Truong Son to save the country. 1,240 outstanding children have fallen on the legendary path, typically the heroic sacrifice of 13 Youth Volunteers of Company 317, on October 31, 2019.
