Tay Ninh Province

Detail

Tay Ninh Province, Vietnam

Tay Ninh is a province located in the Southeastern region of Vietnam. It lies at the crossroads between Ho Chi Minh City and the capital city of Phnom Penh in Cambodia, making it one of the key provinces in the Southern Economic Region. The provincial capital, Tay Ninh City, is situated 99 kilometers away from Ho Chi Minh City via National Highway 22 and 40 kilometers northwest of the Cambodian border.

The land of Tay Ninh, in ancient times, was part of the Thuy Chan Lap region and was known as Romdum Ray, meaning “Elephant Pen” because it was covered in dense forests inhabited by various wild animals such as tigers, elephants, bears, and snakes. The indigenous people in this area lived in extreme poverty until the arrival of Vietnamese settlers, who cultivated and developed the land.
