Remains of the ancient royal city of Cao Cau Ly
Travelers exploring China will be awestruck by the historical architectural wonders, bearing testimony to the development and evolution of humankind that continues to exist to this day. In this article, let's delve into a UNESCO World Heritage site – the ancient royal city of Cao Cau Ly – with Mytour.
The ancient royal city of Cao Cau Ly comprises archaeological sites of three fortified cities: Ngũ Nữ Sơn, Hoàn Đô, and Quốc Nội Sơn, along with 40 royal tombs. Ngũ Nữ Sơn (Onyeosanseong) was the first capital of Cao Cau Ly, succeeded by Hoàn Đô and Quốc Nội Sơn, both of which served as the kingdom's capital for a certain period.
Quốc Nội, situated within the modern city of Tap An today, once served as the second capital after the kingdom's capital shifted to Binh Nguyen. Hoàn Đô, on the other hand, houses numerous relics, including a grand palace and several royal tombs. Ngũ Nữ Sơn, however, has only been partially excavated and is still undergoing excavation and research.
