Vet Dup, from thousands of years still hides many new things. In it, there must be the story of the sacred water rising from the heart of the mountain, embracing an enchanting anecdote and a vivid history.
From the legend of the sacred stream According to folk tales, in the early days of heaven and earth, fairies often went down to the top of Co To to play, joke … when they were bored to destroy knives, the fairies together threw stones from the mountain, When tired, a small range of hills also appeared in the shadow of the night, at the bottom of the hill suddenly a clear stream of water flowed … Anger Dup – sacred hill with legends of fairies in her. Over hundreds of millions of years later, people came to reclaim the land. The drought, the heat here makes people discouraged because of the lack of drinking water. In falling asleep, the sound of the stream gurgling like echoes in my ear and awoke with a start. Happy about this, people living in the burning area, breaking rocks together, opening the stream for the underground stream to flow out. And people named this hill with a flowing stream named Tuk Chup, which in Khmer means water flowing in the night, then read the camp as Tuc Dup. In the 60s of the last century, Tuc Dup hill became a solid revolutionary base where the army of An Giang Provincial Party Committee, Tri Ton District Party Committee and other armed forces were stationed. When the US brought troops to fight on Tuc Dup, they blocked all the supply of food and water to our soldiers. Thanks to mastering the terrain, the soldiers quickly find the underground water in the cave to eat and drink. Knowing that this was the living water source of our army, the enemy used bombs, bullets, and artillery to try to raid, in order to cut off the way of life. Films of our soldiers fighting to protect the groundwater. But it is here, also one of the most terrible “hell” areas that they have tasted failure. As a result, our troops won the battle of 128 days and nights, defending the base and bringing the name of Tuc Dup to fame throughout the continents. To the truth was knocked on the door In 1996, Tuc Dup was assigned by An Giang Provincial People’s Committee to An Giang Tourism Joint Stock Company (then a SOE) to exploit services. However, after more than 2 decades, the sacred water is still peacefully deep under the thick layer of soil, no one can find it, it seems to be just an anecdote. During a survey trip, leader Tuc Dup had the opportunity to meet the former revolutionary soldier, Mr. Nguyen Huu Khanh (himself Ut Vu) – Former Secretary of the An Giang Provincial Party Committee. Visiting the old battlefield, he excitedly recounted the glorious 128 day and night battle of our army and the difficult stories about the process of clearing the That Son vein. To find out the answer “whether the sacred water is real”, leader Tuc Dup and geologists embarked on a survey and research. Perhaps the sacredness of the forebears, has led the way for the interested investors, in just 3 days, they found a cave with a stream of cool water rising up from the mountain. %. This is a precious treasure that Mother Nature created for the hill 2 million dollars. According to Ut Vu, there are inexplicable phenomena. No matter how much fire, bullets and toxic chemicals sprayed, but the stream of water is always clear and never empty. Thanks to that, the revolutionary soldiers were kept alive, resiliently sticking to the battle area until the day the country raised the triumphal song. Kieu bridge across the cave contains underground water. Mr. Hoang Van Thien – Director of Tuc Dup Tourist Area said, “After days traveling on the hillsides, we have discovered this mysterious cave.
