“Thanh Hoang De, or Emperor Citadel, has stood the test of time as an historical witness through the ups and downs of history. Built in 1776, it was first called Do Ban Citadel, and later renamed Emperor Rampart. In 1799 the citadel was lost to the Nguyen Dynasty and the name was once again changed to Binh Dinh Wall.
The rampart is located in Nhon Hau Commune, An Nhon District in the central province of Binh Dinh. There are no signs to the citadel but travelers can ask any of the local residents for directions…(SGT).
