background
The place where Dong Hoi is now has long been disputed between the Champa Empire and the Dai Viet in history. It officially became Dai Viet territory when a princess of Tran Huyen married into the Dai Viet family. During the Trinh and Nguyen Wars (1588–1775), Vietnam was divided into two parts: Dang Trong in the south and Dang Ngoai in the north. Hoi became an important border fortress of the southern empire. The Dong Hoi Wall (Vietnamese: Thành Đồng Hới) was built as a protective wall against attacks by the northern rulers. During the Indochina War, Hoi was used as a base for the French air force. During the Vietnam War, the city was badly destroyed by American B-52 bombers. In 1990, Binh Tri Thien Province was divided into three provinces and Dong Hoi became the capital of Quang Binh Province, and the city was rebuilt after the war. The beach is 12 km with white sand.
