Dakrong district currently has 33 ranked relics. Of which, 1 relic is ranked as a special national relic (Dakrong Suspension Bridge); 2 relics are ranked at the national level (locations crossing Route 9 of Thong Nhat power line and Route 559; relics of locations (6 locations) in Ba Long war zone); 30 relics are ranked at the provincial level. There are 25 provincial relics with plaques; 15/17 relics have completed scientific records; 15/17 relics have completed legal records.

Most of the historical relics ranked at national and provincial levels in Dakrong district date back to the anti-French and anti-American wars, located far from the commune and district centers, with rugged terrain. Over time, all traces of the relics are gradually disappearing, so determining the space, territory, and scope of the relics to set up markers, delimit the relic protection area as well as investing in conservation, restoration, and promotion of the relics' value is very difficult.

There are not many historical witnesses and people knowledgeable about historical and cultural relics in the district today. Some remaining witnesses are old and weak, which has greatly affected the process of collecting information to complete the scientific records and legal records of the relics. Most historical and cultural relics in the district are located in residential areas, on agricultural land, forest land or garden land of households, so the process of land recovery to complete the land allocation records for the relics faces many difficulties...

Speaking at the meeting, Head of the Culture and Social Affairs Committee of the Provincial People's Council Ho Thi Thu Hang emphasized: The work of preserving, embellishing and promoting the system of historical and cultural relics has a particularly important role and significance. Therefore, it is necessary to promote a high sense of responsibility in focusing on the preservation, embellishment and promotion of the value of the system of historical and cultural relics to contribute to improving the spiritual and cultural life, promoting tourism development and education for future generations.

Propose that the Department of Culture and Information of Dakrong district absorb the comments of the members of the Cultural and Social Committee of the Provincial People's Council, and at the same time continue to make efforts to overcome difficulties, shortcomings and promote the achieved results to do better the work of preserving, embellishing and promoting the system of historical and cultural relics in Dakrong district in the coming time.

Note that, in the implementation of the work of preserving, embellishing and promoting the system of historical and cultural relics, it is necessary to focus on doing a good job of land measurement to obtain land use right certificates; the nameplate of the relic must ensure the use of good materials, high aesthetics and record complete and accurate relic information; pay attention to supporting people living near historical and cultural relics to invest in developing community tourism, thereby creating unique tourism products with local identity, attracting domestic and foreign tourists to Dakrong district.
