Bình Lục is a rural district of Hà Nam province in the Red River Delta region of Vietnam.

[1] According to the records of a number of indigenous officials and residents, the topography of Hà Nam province was lower than the sea level in the past, most of the swamps with many crocodiles.

In the 19th and 20th centuries, when Hà Nam province began to form, Bình Lục acted as a cultural center of the region with the emergence of many families with achievements from imperial examinations.

By Philippe Papin's research, at the beginning of Christ, the entire Red River Delta was still a flooded bay so almost no humans reside.

Bình Lục rural district is where scientists excavated six bronze drums such as Ngọc Lũ, Vũ Bị and An Lão in the 1960s.
