The People's Committee of Quang Ngai province has just submitted a document requesting the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to consider, decide on the ranking and grant a national relic ranking certificate for To Vo Gate Scenic Area, Tay village, An Vinh, Ly Son district, Quang Ngai province.
To Vo Gate scenic spot was formed from the lava eruption of Gieng Tien volcano (Ly Son), creating a thick basalt layer at To Vo Gate location. Over time, the basalt layer of To Vo Gate was broken and affected by the erosion of sea waves related to the sea level rise process, breaking into the middle layer of rock with weaker cohesion than the rock layer above, creating a hollow level, a hollow hole similar to the stone gate with the shape of a To Vo nest.
Because of its wild, unique, distinct, exclusive beauty and high recognition, To Vo Gate is one of the famous landscapes of Quang Ngai province and Vietnam.
Located in the marine cultural space, with tangible cultural heritage values (Gieng Tien volcano, Duc Pagoda, Hang Cau, Thoi Loi mountain, Xo La well, An Hai communal house, Am Linh Tu, Whale skeleton exhibition house, Hoang Sa Fleet exhibition house managing Bac Hai, Be island area...).
Intangible cultural heritage values are closely linked to the traces and cultural assimilation of the three classes of Sa Huynh - Champa - Dai Viet residents, the history of protecting national sovereignty over seas and islands such as festivals, social customs and beliefs (Khao le the linh Hoang Sa ceremony, Tu linh boat racing festival, Nghinh Ong festival, doi bong festival, pole raising ceremony...).
Folk knowledge about traditional crafts (growing onions and garlic; weaving nets), folk knowledge about cuisine , performing arts of folk songs; Han Nom documentary heritage...
This is also a place for practical experience serving the research and learning of the general public; becoming a source of inspiration for creation in many fields of literature, fine arts, and photography.
At the same time, the Ly Son sea area in general and the To Vo Gate Scenic Area in particular are favorable environments for the development of seagrass species and coral reefs, creating abundant marine resources; providing livelihoods and main sources of income for the majority of the population living on the island.
To Vo Gate landscape converges all the historical, cultural, scientific and aesthetic values, service - tourism values, and economic values. Therefore, this is an important material basis, a driving force for economic, tourism and cultural development of Quang Ngai province and the whole country.
