The Vietnam - Laos International Martyrs' Cemetery is located in Anh Son town (Anh Son district), and is one of the works representing the spirit of solidarity and special traditional friendship between the two brotherly countries of Vietnam and Laos.

This is the resting place of more than 11,000 Vietnamese volunteer soldiers and military experts who died on the battlefields of neighboring countries. To remember and pay tribute to the heroic martyrs of the Vietnamese volunteer soldiers who fought side by side with the army and people to protect the two countries, our Party and State built this special cemetery as a resting place for the Vietnamese volunteer soldiers who fought and died in Laos.
