DUCTHANH SCHOOL
DucThanh school was built in 1907 (also the year when DongKinhNghiaThuc school was built), located in the area of ThanhDuc village now 39 TrungNhi street, DucNghia quarter, PhanThiet city. In order to respond to DuyTan movement instigated by Mr. PhanChauTrinh, Mr. TranQuyCap and Mr. HuynhThucKhang. This school founded by Mr. NguyenTrongLoi and Mr. NguyenQuyAnh (the patriotic poet writer - two children of Mr. NguyenThong ). The purposes of DuyTan movement and DucThanh School were to develop the people's intellectual standards and to arouse the people and the race's sense. This was a private school with the most progressive teaching content in BinhThuan at that time. In 1910, on the way to find the solution to save the country, teacher NguyenTatThanh (later was President HoChiMinh) came to PhanThiet and stopped his feet to teach at DucThanh school according to the introduction of Mr. TruongGiaMo - a holder of doctor's degree in Sino - Vietnamese classics. The school had about 60 pupils and 7 teachers in charge of the subjects: Chinese, French, Sports, etc.

Teacher Thanh taught the second class, mainly the national language and Chinese. During the time of teaching at DucThanh School, besides the teaching contents, teacher Thanh also propagated the love for the country and the ancestor's race to his pupils with his love and sentiment as a teacher as well as an older brother. In extra - curricular activities in free time, he took his pupils to visit and enjoy PhanThiet town's beautiful sights at that time such as ThuongChanh beach, Thieng village's cavern, DucNghia village's communal house.  
In about February 1911 teacher Thanh left DucThanh School and PhanThiet to SaiGon, crossed the ocean in order to find out the way to liberate our people and country. A few years later, Mr. NguyenTrongLoi passed away, Mr. NguyenQuyAnh moved to SaiGon, no one in charge more and because of many other objective reasons, the school was closed in 1912. 
The old school where Uncle Ho taught was broken and knocked down a long time ago. But among the pupils teacher Thanh taught before, four have still been alive. They are doctor NguyenQuyPhau, doctor NguyenKimChi, Mr. TuTruongPhung, and Mr. NguyenDangLau. After the liberation, the people's expectation was to restore the old DucThanh School in order to show their gratitude to our beloved Uncle Ho and to educate the tradition of loving the country to the present as well as the future generations.
Thanks to Uncle Ho's former pupils memories and remembrance, the school position and the interior and exterior architectural part were formed through the plans and rebuilt from the years 1978 to 1980.
Ngu house was built in 1906 and since 1908 it has been used as the pupils' boarding place and now it was also restored.

"Ngoadusao" was the house of Mr. NguyenThong built in 1880. In the final years of his life, he stayed in this house to recite poems, to comment prows and to discuss the business with the patriotic cultured people. When staying at this school, teacher Thanh read books, prepared the lessons at "NgoaDuSao", now it has also been improved because its commodities inside have been disordered and stolen quite a lot.
The thistle tree and the well related to Uncle Ho's teaching life at DucThanh school are also the main points in this place of historical interest. The original exhibits from the time teacher Thanh taught have still been preserved until now: A set of sofas, a wooden bed, a high desk, a wardrobe, a wooden container of documents, an ink grinding, ink stone, 3 small glasses, an ashtray.
All of them are old but they have been kept and preserved well. Those are the sacred memory objects combining with teacher NguyenTatThanh's short teaching day’s time and history in PhanThiet.
Beside the Area of DucThanh School, the Display House of Uncle Ho's revolutionary activities and life was also built and opened in 1986. DucThanh place of historical interest was classified as the Na­tional place of historical interest by the Ministry of Culture - Information according to the Decision number 235/QD - BT on the 12th of December, 1986.

THE PRINCE'S CASTLE
The Prince's castle consists of a community of the hills, the mountain, the river, the sea and the tower pagoda creating an area of beautiful sights with the salient points of comparatively high "Co" mountain top and 4 up - and - down hills next to the sea; the most beautiful are "Co" mountain, BaNai hill, PhuHai coastal estuary and the beach with the old fishing villages 7 km North East of PhanThiet city.
In 1911, a French prince as well as De Montpensier from France came here for traveling and hunting in the nearby hills, he realized the sights of mountain and water here were very beautiful, so he decided to buy a plot of land here to build a villa also used as a place where he could rest when hunting and traveling later. The French authority in BinhThuan (Ambassador Gamier) agreed to sell him BaNai hill according to his expectation.
On the 21st of February, 1911 this villa was started to be built and completed nearly one year later, with the area of 536 m² and 13 rooms. The villa area was built at the place nearby 100 meters South of Cham tower temple group Poshanu. In the process of transporting the materials up to build the villa area, the French destroyed the wall in front of the Tower's main door. This was a beautiful and comfortable villa with electric generators at night; under the villa there were a lot of tunnels containing rainwater enough for the people living in the villa in a year, this villa was considered as the most modern one in BinhThuan at that time. From then on, PhanThiet people have been used to calling this area "LauOngHoang - Prince's Castle" hill, because on this hill there used to be a beautiful big villa area built by De Montpensier.
Now The Prince's castle is an attractive tourist community including: the ancient Cham tower group, beside the tower is the time - honored ancient BuuSon pagoda, under the hill foot are the seashore, PhuHai coastal estuary, "Co" mountain where there is poet NguyenThong's tomb. All of them have combined with one another into a community of the cultural place of historical interest and beautiful sights in PhanThiet city.

THUY TU FISHERMEN'S ASSOCIATION
ThuyTu fishermen's association was first established by ThuyTu fishermen in 1762 for worshiping "CaOng" (the whale) with the central chamber, the house for worshiping "TienHien”, the one for Song - Dance group, they were ar­ranged in the form of the word Tam with the main side toward the East. When it was just finished, its gate was very near right the seashore. Nowadays the seashore is over 100 meters far from here. Now ThuyTu fishermen's association is situated on NguOng Street, DucThang quarter, PhanThiet city. Different from the village's communal house often built for worshiping the village's Tutelary God and located in the agricultural village, the fishermen's association is often constructed for worshiping the whale (CaOng) and located very near right the seashore of the fishing village. Most of BlnhThuan's fishing villages have got fishermen's associations and temples for worshiping the whale (CaOng) - the God who has helped and saved fishermen when they meet accidents on the sea according to their opinion. And this God is always loyal to fishermen; therefore they love and respect this God all the time. The folk religion has connected with the job religion from this generation-to-generation according to fishermen's customs and traditions.
Since the day of finishing until now, ThuyTu fishermen's association has contained nearly 100 bone skeletons of whales and many other species of the same family. Over half of them have got the epoch of over 100 to 150 years; among them the big bone skeletons have been worshiped solemnly. In its campus, there is a large land bridge used to bury the whale when he "dies" and drifts onto the seashore from the sea. And his bone skeleton will be placed into a tomb according to the custom after 3 years' burial service. Among the fishermen, if anyone sees "Ong" first, this fisherman will become " His" eldest child and have to hold a funeral perfectly and 3 years of mourning... and so on. That shows fishermen's customs and behaviors toward " CaOng" - the whale - according to their religion are nearly the same as the relationship between people and people.
ThuyTu fishermen's association is one of the most ancient one in BinhThuan's fishing villages, the local fishermen consider it as the first sea ancestor of the sea fishing job. It has contained many Chinese - Vietnamese cultural heritages related to the sea fishing job, expressing the worshiping content in the shrines, worshiped statues, horizontal boards inscribed with Chinese characters, parallel scrolls, in the bell record of the Great Bell. ThuyTu fishermen's association is one of the ancient places of historical interest with a large amount of nominations granted by Nguyen Dynasty's Kings for worshiping " CaOng" - the whale and the Sea Gods because in the feudal war against TaySon righteous volunteers, Nguyen Dynasty's generals and commanders were once rescued many time by the whale on the sea. It has got 24 nominations granted by the Kings: ThieuTri, TuDuc, DongKhanh, DuyTan, KhaiDinh, privately King ThieuTri (1841 - 1847) granted 10 nominations and this is the rare thing compared with other places of historical interest. The Government classified ThuyTu fishermen's association as the National Historical place of interest in 1996. 

  KHEGA LIGHTHOUSE
KheGa lighthouse was built on the top of KheGa island with the area of 5 hectares in the seaside at TanThanh commune, once belonging to HamTan district, now HamThuanNam district, about 30 km South East of PhanThiet city. KheGa Lighthouse was built by a French design engineer named Chnavat to direct boats and ships to travel, it was started from February, 1897 and opened at the end of the year 1898, now there is still a big gran­ite sheet right in front of the gate leading to the Lighthouse with the number of 1899 KheGa Lighthouse officially worked in 1900. The managing officers were a French man (the head) and 8 Vietnamese people guarding the light. In the marine history of this area, in the previous generations, there were so many wrecked travel ling merchant ships because they could not define coordinates and positions, So KheGa Cape has been considered as an extremely dangerous and important position of the seaside from PhanRang to VüngTau. Due to this seaside's dangerous and important position, and in order to meet the increasing transportation need of the French army as well as foreign merchant ships coming here, some French people studied to build KheGa Lighthouse. In the building time, so many people died from accidents; nowadays here there is still a cemetery burying the people who had died in this project.
KheGa Island is 500 meters from the seashore; on the low water days, we can wade to the island from the seashore. When tidal flow and windy, it is very hard to travel. On the island, this Lighthouse was built comparatively huge; probably this is the highest one in our country with its octagonal granite pole. The origin of the granite used to build KheGa Lighthouse by the French people has been unknown because there is not this kind of granite in the area. And all of these cubic meters of granite are not only normal with 4 angles but also carved and sculptured into each square, each concrete form and side fitting with each other. It means that there was nearly a ready - made available granite tower, when building they only installed it in the right orders and angles and sides from low to high and they only needed to use mortar to make this granite tower stick without having to plaster or render or repair. (This granite tight tower is 35 meters high, the total height from the ground level to the light top is 41.5 meters, the height from the light range to the sea level is 65 meters, and the size of the tower side is 2.60 meters. The thickness of the tower wall from the bottom to the height of 6 meters is 1.6m, when higher the thickness decreases from 1.5m and the thinnest at the tower top is 1 meter). On the tower top, there is a big light of 2000w used as a signal to direct boats and ships. Besides this Lighthouse, there is also a square big house with each side of 40 meters, under it is a 3 meters deep water - containing tunnel, in front of it is a well called the Fairy well. From the sea water level to the Lighthouse are scores of steps. Two lines of jasmine along the isle and around the Lighthouse bottom planted by the French people at the end of the previous century have been still the same until now, giving shadow all the year round. All of the 184 steel spiral stairs leading to the Lighthouse top and scores of 3 steps staircases leading to the light top have been brought from France, including the light on the top and the generator. Nowadays KheGa Island and the Lighthouse have become an attractive tourist point for travelers, because KheGa Lighthouse is both a beautiful sight and a unique architectural place of historical interest.

 "THAYTHIM" SHRINE
ThayThim shrine is located in the middle of an old forest named BauCat belonging to TanHai commune, HamTan district, about 70 km South East of PhanThiet city. According to the folk legend under King TuDuc's Dynasty, there was a Taoist couple from LaQua village, DienBan district, QuangNam province. The Taoist was a well - talented and moral person who often helped the poor, hated the mandarins and commanders bullying the local villagers, and fought against the contemporary regime; so he was accused of making troubles, planning a rebel and got the punishment of "TamBanTrieuDien" by King TuDuc's Dynasty. Before this punishment, the Taoists turned the silk ribbon into a dragon to fly toward the South. This couple stopped at TamTan village, everyday they prepared the medicine to cure the local people and cut firewood in order to earn their living. Their talent and virtue were famous everywhere in the area, since then the local villagers have called this Taoist couple the familiar names of "Thay, Thim". There have been many their folk legends about their talent, virtue and magical power. When this couple died, the local villagers buried them in a nearby area. Every year, on the 5th of Lunar January, they often see a couple of a tiger and a tigress comes to visit their tombs. 
Until King ThanhThai the eighteenth's time in BinhNgo year (the Horse year 1906), the King reconsidered "ThayThim's merit and virtue and decided to abolish the punishment for them and granted them the nomination of "ChiDucTienSinh, ChiDucNuongNuongTonThan". In order to show their respect and gratitude to "ThayThim" couple's merits, the villagers made a shrine at the present position to worship them. The local people have considered "ThayThim" as the Village's Tutelary God and Goddess symbolizing many precious characters such as talent and morality, industriousness, hard-working, human compassion for the poor. For over 100 years, "ThayThim" shrine has become the place where the people come to worship and honor; recently it has been an area of tourist famous beautiful sights combined with the surrounding mountain and forest, the beach and Poplar hill. Every year, people everywhere come to visit the tombs and the shrine, but the most crowded are on the occasions of Thay’s death anniversary on the 5th of Lunar January and the ritual of its Autumn offering sacrifices from the 14th to the 16th of Lunar September. The Ministry of Culture-Information classified it as the Art-Architectural place of historical^-interest in 1997

The group of Poshanu Cham tower temples are situated on BaNai hill top at PhuHai commune, about 7 Km North - East of PhanThiet city. From the end of the eighth cen­tury to the beginning of the ninth cen­tury, they were constructed in the manner of HolaLai art architecture - one of Champa Kingdom's ancient art architectural manners, but now there are only very a few of these tower temples left such as some ruins in MỹSơn Holy Land area, HoaLai group (PhanRang) and PoDam one (TuyPhong - BinhThuan) left and only the group of Poshanu Cham tower temples are comparatively integral.
