Bình An Cemetery, Military cemetery in Dĩ An, Vietnam
The cemetery spans 58 hectares and contains approximately 12,000 graves arranged in circles around a central monument and an obelisk.
Established in 1965 as Bien Hoa Military Cemetery, this site served as the final resting place for Army of the Republic of Vietnam soldiers until 1975.
Families gather at the cemetery to perform traditional Vietnamese memorial rituals and maintain connections with their deceased military relatives.
The cemetery features a ceremonial road leading to a hilltop pagoda, with the main burial area accessible through a walkway behind the structure.
A bronze statue called Thuong Tiec, depicting a seated soldier with an M1 rifle, generated local tales about coming alive to warn of enemy attacks.
