Evidence of a legend

The Happiness Road began to be built on September 10, 1959, with a length of about 200 km, from Ha Giang through Dong Van stone plateau and Ma Phuong peak to Meo Vac. It was formed by the hands of more than 1,300 volunteers from 6 provinces of Viet Nam and two delta provinces (Nam Dinh, Hai Duong) and more than 1,000 people of 16 ethnic groups on the rocky plateau for 7 years.

The Road was built with extremely rudimentary equipment such as hoes, shovels, sledgehammers, crowbar, wheelbarrow … in extremely difficult working conditions. In spite of the lack of food and water, the harsh climate of the highlands, thousands of people still continued building this road.

It is a way to brighten the future of many children now and forever.
