He reminded the construction site command board and staff to organize their work scientifically, unite and love each other. Before leaving, Uncle Ho read four verses to the youth volunteer force: Nothing is difficult, Only fear unstable heart, Digging mountains and filling seas, Surely made a firm decision. Thus, the place Na Tu was the birthplace of Uncle Ho's four immortal poems, and today Na Tu has become a historical relic.

Duom Temple

Duom Temple is located at the foot of Duom Mountain in Dong Dat commune, Phu Luong district, Thai Nguyen province, about 25km northwest of Thai Nguyen city center. Duom Temple worships Duong Tu Minh - a leader of the Tay people and a mandarin under the Ly dynasty who was assigned to manage the ancient Phu Luong palace (including continents that are now part of the provinces: Thai Nguyen, Bac Kan, Vinh Phuc, Phu Tho, Tuyen Quang, Cao Bang, Lang Son). He was also a famous general who had great merit in reclaiming a large portion of land from the Song invaders and firmly protecting the northern border region of Dai Viet. He also openly reclaimed land, developed the economy, maintained national unity, and was awarded the title of "God of Cao Son Quang Du" by the Ly dynasty. Later dynasties all ordained him as "Cao Son noble class, superior god". With his contributions to the country during the Ly dynasty, he was given his daughter, Princess Dien Binh, in marriage by King Ly Nhan Tong (1072 - 1128) and in marriage by King Ly Anh Tong (1138 - 1175).
