Erected in the 20th century, this architectural marvel stands as a tribute to the brave Legionnaires who lost their lives during conflicts that took place decades earlier. The French Foreign Legion played a significant role in Vietnam's history, engaging in intense battles against the Chinese Black Flag militia during the Indo-China campaign of 1883. Subsequently, they fought valiantly in the Franco-Chinese War from 1884 to 1885. This memorial serves as a poignant reminder of their sacrifices. The image showcases a military uniform-clad soldier standing beside this grand structure.
