The Battle of Dien Bien Phu ended the Indochina War. Today Dien Bien Phu is a tourist destination. Many visitors are battle veterans or members of their families. As well as the battle site, tourists can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Muong Thanh valley, visit the neighbouring villages, and share the hospitality of the local people. Most of the people who live in the area are members of the Thai or H’Mong ethnic minorities. However, they don’t depend on tourism alone to live. Because Dien Bien Phu is only 30 kilometers from the Lao’s border, it is an important trading center. Food leaves here for Lao and Thailand and goods arrive for the northern provinces of Viet Nam. battle = trận đánh veteran = cựu binh hospitality = lòng mến khách ethnic minority = dân tộc thiểu số 36.
