After visiting Tan Vu bridge, the delegation moved to Kien Thuy and visited the Mac Dynasty Memorial Site - where the 500-year-old sword is kept.

The journey with many interesting destinations taking place in one day left many emotions in each member. The former teachers had the opportunity to learn more about the country's historical and cultural sites, and at the same time had the opportunity to chat and meet colleagues after the hardships of life. Perhaps that is why the Party Committee, the Board of Directors, and the Executive Board of the School's Trade Union always support the field trip activities of the members of the School's Former Teachers Association to be organized annually.
