The site still retains part of the original cultural layer, on the stone roof walls there are many sedimentary layers of the Quaternary period. The site has a very thick stratum, containing a complex of stone tools, pottery, and burials of Hoa Binh culture residents dating from 17,000 - 8,000 years ago...

Vinh Hung archaeological site (Vinh Loi district, Bac Lieu province) - this is one of the remaining tower architectures of the Oc Eo culture in Southern Vietnam.

Historical relics of Truong Dinh uprising sites (Go Cong town, Go Cong Dong district and Tan Phu Dong district, Tien Giang province). Truong Dinh temple is located in Hamlet 2, Gia Thuan commune, Go Cong Dong district. The temple is a place to worship the national hero Truong Dinh, who opened up the land of Go Cong. This is considered his second homeland (next to his hometown in Quang Ngai province), where he grew up, made a living and fought against the invasion of French colonialists.

To commemorate his merits, the people of Go Cong often call him "Truong Cong Dinh" or "Mr. Truong", and some places in Go Cong call him "Mr. Lon". The Truong Dinh Temple relic in Gia Thuan commune is a national relic, along with the Dinh Pond Relic and the Dark Sky Leaves Relic, which have the common names of places related to the Truong Dinh uprising, such as: Truong Dinh Temple, Dark Sky Leaves, Dinh Pond.
