History Ba Vi By Atv Tour

1. Historical Context & Heritage Foundations

Ba Vi rises majestically 1,296 meters above sea level as the legendary mountain home of Tan Vien, the mountain deity in Vietnamese folklore. During the French colonial period in the 1940s, it was developed as a cool-climate hill resort with villas, sanatoriums, and military outposts.
