Historyedit
According to historian Đào Duy Anh, Bồng Sơn was set up under king Lê Thánh Tông in 1471.[4] It later became one of three administrative centres in what is now Bình Định Province.
Bồng Sơn was the site of an uprising against French colonialism in 1945, involving around 8000 people and led by Trịnh Hồng Kỳ.[4]
As much of Bình Định Province, it was the site of severe fighting during the Vietnam War and a major battle in 1966.
Economyedit
Bồng Sơn has a small industrial park (Cụm công nghiệp Bồng Sơn) with industries such as wood processing.[4]
