Binh Thanh is a low -lying land with many bonds mixed with high soil creating a fairly complex terrain in Duc Hue district, Long An province. This area is located between the east and the Southwest region, close to Saigon and leaning against Cambodia. With these conditions, Binh Thanh has become a unique base in two wars against the French colonialists and American imperialism. Since the Nam Ky uprising (November 23, 1940), more than 100 Tan An insurgents were large under the leadership of the comrades Luu Du Chau and Le Van Tuong to the Binh area to establish a green base. This base only exists for 8 months, there is an order to disperse of the Party Committee, because there is no conditions for the 2nd uprising. However, the green base has created a premise for the formation and development of the provincial Party Committee later. During the anti -French resistance war, Binh Thanh area was the base of Cho Lon Provincial Party Committee and Area 7 with the name "Dong Thanh Military Region". Southern agencies such as the Office of the Southern High Command and the Departments of the Southern Administrative Resistance Committee also had time to station in the Dong Thanh Military Region. After the 1954 Geneva Agreement, the government of Ngo Dinh Diem straightened the revolutionary forces. In order to preserve the forces, a number of officials and party members of the two provinces of Tan An- Cho Lon have withdrawn to the vase. In the context of the Central Government that did not allow the armed struggle, revolutionary soldiers in Binh Thanh took advantage of the name of the sectarian troops to establish the South Central Command- the first armed forces of the 8 and Southern region after 1954. In July 1957, the Party Committee established Long An province on the basis of merging 2 provinces of Tan An and Cho Lon. With experience from the anti -French resistance war, Long An Provincial Party Committee chose Binh Thanh as a base for the leadership of the resistance against the US. In each period with different difficult and favorable conditions, Long An Provincial Party Committee was flexible and maneuverable in Binh Thanh area, sometimes having to temporarily flee to three autumn, sometimes developing to Duc Hoa, Ben Luc and the lower areas. However, the place where Long An Provincial Party Committee and its affiliated agencies stood the longest operating was the friend of Binh Thanh area in the opening period and ending the resistance war against the US (1960-1961)-(1973-1975). From Binh Thanh base, the Provincial Party Committee promptly directed and set out guidelines, resolutions and leaders of the revolutionary movement in the province until the day of complete victory. With an area that is not wide, the terrain is rugged but it cannot be completely based on that to survive and against the modern war vehicles of the enemy, but the Binh Thanh base is still challenging to the enemy. This is thanks to the people's love and love, the flexibility and creativity of the Provincial Party Committee. It can be said that Binh Thanh base is the base of the people's heart. With the spirit of drinking water to remember the source, in 1996 the Provincial Party Committee and the leaders of Long An province have returned to Binh Thanh, identifying points that the Provincial Party Committee used to work in the past. The Management Board of the construction of revolutionary historical relics was also established with the task of restoring the embellishment of historical relics of Binh Thanh base with an initial scale of 93 hectares in Binh Hoa Hung-Duc Hue commune.

The Zen master's real name is Nguyen Ngoc Dot, son of Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Binh and Mrs. Tra Thi Hue in Thanh Ba village, Phuoc Dien Trung district. Phuoc Loc district. Initially, the Zen master studied at Vinh Quang Pagoda, near Truong Binh market, and was given the Buddhist name Vien Ngo by his master. At that time, the road to Truong Binh market was densely covered with grass and trees, muddy and difficult to walk in. Tigers, leopards, and wild animals often came out to harm people. Seeing this, Zen Master Vien Ngo vowed to cut down trees alone and build a road from Truong Binh market to Tich Duc village and Hoa Thuan ward 250 meters long. In the 7th year of Gia Long's reign (1808), monk Vien Ngo came to Thanh Ba village (now in My Loc commune) to build Lan Nha pagoda - that is the current Ton Thanh pagoda. According to Dai Nam Nhat Thong Chi, this is a famous pagoda with "magnificent, golden pillars" in the ancient land of Gia Dinh. The Zen master also cast a bronze statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to worship in the temple. Legend has it that when the Bodhisattva statue was missing for the first time, Zen Master Vien Ngo cut off one of his fingers and put it in a pot of bronze water so that the statue could be perfect the next time it was cast. He is not only a filial son but also a person full of compassion and charity. When his father was sick, the Zen master swore in front of the Buddha platform that he would "sit" for 10 years to prolong his father's life. In the first year of Minh Mang (1820), in an area with a smallpox epidemic, monk Vien Ngo vowed to "recite sutras and recite Buddha's name and spend his life in isolation" to pray for the people to escape the disaster. In the 5th year of Thieu Tri (1845), he found that he had been a monk for 40 years but had not yet attained enlightenment, so he passed away for 49 days and then passed away. His Dharma body was buried by the monks in the stupa west of Ton Thanh pagoda. In memory of a Zen master who sacrificed his life to bring goodness to sentient beings, people called Ton Thanh Pagoda Tang Ngo Pagoda or Ong Ngo Pagoda. Sixteen years after Zen Master Vien Ngo passed away, Ton Thanh Pagoda entered the country's history with the tribute to the martyr Can Giuoc by blind poet Nguyen Dinh Chieu. During the three years 1859-1861, patriotic scholar Nguyen Dinh Chieu returned to Thanh Ba, using Ton Thanh pagoda as a place to teach, write poetry and make medicine. During the raid on Tay Duong post at Truong Binh market on the full moon night of the 11th month of Tan Du year, one of the three wings of the insurgent army set out from Ton Thanh pagoda, burned the teaching house, and beheaded the second mandarin of Phu Lang Sa. Touched by the altruistic hearts of the "hamlet villagers", poet Nguyen Dinh Chieu composed a famous tribute to the martyr Can Giuoc at Ton Thanh Pagoda. History has preserved the name of this pagoda of Long An through immortal sentences: ''Ton Thanh Pagoda freezes five years, the red heart leaves behind the full moonlight. Don Lang sa for a moment to pay back his anger and regret, his fate drifted with the flowing water''. Having gone through many ups and downs of history, Ton Thanh Pagoda today no longer has the same "magnificent, golden pillars" as before. Instead, it is an architectural complex including the front hall, main hall, lecture hall, east corridor, west corridor with tiled roofs and brick walls. However, Ton Thanh Pagoda still retains its ancient features through the system of four-shaped columns in the main hall, Buddha statues dating from the early 19th century, and gilded lacquered horizontal parallel sentences with Chinese characters.
