About the region
The industrial lifeblood of the province. This is not a cultural retreat; it is a high-velocity, heavy-duty logistics artery. It wraps entirely around the city and houses the Hữu Nghị international border gate. Visually, it is defined by endless miles of 18-wheeler trucks, massive customs clearing yards, and the raw economic friction of international freight moving in and out of China.
