Từ Sơn

The urban center of Từ Sơn stretches across 61 square kilometers in the Red River Delta region, supporting a population of over 200,000 residents.

Emperor Lý Thái Tổ, born in Từ Sơn during 974, established the Lý dynasty and moved the capital to Thăng Long, modern-day Hanoi.

The Lý Bát Đế Shrine within Từ Sơn preserves traditional Vietnamese architectural elements and serves as a ceremonial site for local religious practices.

The town's location northeast of Hanoi provides direct access to major transportation routes and regular bus services connecting to surrounding industrial centers.

Từ Sơn achieved city status in September 2021, marking its evolution from a township to a Class-3 urban area with expanded administrative functions.
