Tam Điệp

South-eastern Asia

Tam Điệp is a former provincial city of Ninh Bình province in the Red River Delta region of Vietnam. The Vietnamese Wikipedia article calls it an ancient place beside the Tam Điệp mountain range, where prehistoric remains and military history show its strategic value, and the seat of the 12th Army Corps, one of the main corps of the Vietnam People's Army. It is also called the peach blossom city, home of the Tam Điệp early peach, Trại Quang Sỏi tea and Đồng Giao pineapple. The city lies in the southwest of the province, about 14 kilometres southwest of Hoa Lư, 105 kilometres from the centre of Hanoi and 165 kilometres from Haiphong, bordered by Nho Quan district and Thạch Thành district of Thanh Hóa on the west and by Bỉm Sơn town and Hà Trung district on the south. Two religions are mainly practised, Buddhism and Christianity, with ten percent of the people Christian.
