Located on the National Highway 1 leading out of Ho Chi Minh City, it is most notable for the battle of Xuan Loc, which took place in April 1975. This was the final battle of the Vietnam War, when the North Vietnamese Army were defied by the outnumbered 18th Division of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam.
