On September 14, Mr. Le Hong Vinh - Chairman of Nghe An Provincial People's Committee said that after the Nghe An Soviet-Soviet relic cluster in Nghe An was recognized as a Special National Monument, the province will focus on preserving and promoting the value of relics associated with tourism development and propaganda and promotion of Nghe An cultural values.

This is a system of 9 component relics spread across many localities, associated with major protests, the formation of communal-level Soviet governments and the mark of the 1930-1931 revolutionary climate.
Notable relics include: The location of the Hung Nguyen farmers' protest on September 12, 1930; Vinh Fishing Port - where many revolutionary soldiers were imprisoned; Ben Thuy intersection; Vo Liet Communal House (Thanh Chuong) - where farmers gathered to fight; along with many other locations in Nghi Loc, Dien Chau, Anh Son...
