An EU delegation led by Sean Doyle, Head of the European Commission to Vietnam, yesterday visited Truong Luy, an ancient wall complex located in the central provinces of Quang Ngai and Binh Dinh.
Doyle, who was briefed about the latest archeological researches on Truong Luy, said he was very impressed, adding the EU would help Vietnam introduce it to the world.
Built from the 17th to 19th century, Truong Luy is 130 km long, 4 m high and 2.5 m wide.
It runs from Tra Bong District in Quang Ngai Province along the eastern side of the Truong Son Mountain Range to An Lao District in Binh Dinh Province and is probably the longest ancient wall in Southeast Asia.
The Vietnamese Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has recently recognized Truong Luy as a national historical and cultural heritage and will soon hold a recognition ceremony.
