Tây Ninh City

South-eastern Asia

Tây Ninh City is a former provincial city and the former capital of Tây Ninh province in Southeastern Vietnam, part of the Southern Key Economic Region around Ho Chi Minh City. It lies about 90 kilometres northwest of Ho Chi Minh City and 182 kilometres from Phnom Penh, both along National Route 22, and it covers about 140 square kilometres. The city is the home of the Cao Dai religion, whose Holy See stands in Hòa Thành about five kilometres east of the centre, and it is close to Black Virgin Mountain, the tallest mountain in southern Vietnam, to Dầu Tiếng Lake and to the Mộc Bài international border gate. Farming covers more than 85 percent of the natural land, with rubber, sugarcane and cassava the main crops, and the Phước Đồng industrial park lies within reach. A township was first proposed in Thái Hiệp Thạnh commune in 1942.
