From here, visitors can see a panoramic view of Ninh Chu beach resort, Phuong Cuu salt fields, Dam Vua, golden rice fields of Ninh Hai district and in the distance is Da Chong mountain. It is this beauty that has contributed to enhancing the beauty of Ca Du Mountain. With rocks piled up on top of each other and many large caves and nooks and crannies, Ca Du mountain is quite dangerous. Because of this terrain, in the early years of the Can Vuong movement, the insurgents chose Ca Du mountain as a base to fight against the French. Also from here, reconnaissance teams, armed forces and revolutionary cadres throughout the years of the resistance war against the US have stayed put to build bases and organize to eliminate traitors and traitors.

Although the enemy tried every way to destroy it, the enemy's raids, sieges, and counter-attacks were all repelled by the resistance troops clinging to Ca Du mountain. Through many years of holding on and enduring all hardships, the resistance forces in Ca Du mountain have maintained their faith in the revolution. Ca Du Mountain is a place where food cannot be produced, even drinking water needs to be supplied. Understanding this, the enemy used every trick to destroy all sources of supply from the people to the revolutionary forces. But with passionate patriotism and strong faith in the Revolution, the people in the area of Dua hamlet, Du Khanh... were not afraid of hardships and sacrifices to find every way to supply food to the guerrillas. The enemy blocked the road, people transported by water through Dam Nai. It was the support of the people around the region that empowered the revolutionary cadres and created legends about the "outrageous" battles of the resistance forces. That evidence still remains in the memories of the people of Ninh Thuan province today. It is the historical significance of the revolution in the two resistance wars for national liberation that on April 16, 1999 - the anniversary of the liberation of Ninh Thuan, the Provincial People's Committee decided to recognize Ca Du Mountain as a relic. history of the province.
