Hanoi Highway

Hà Nội Highway or Hanoi Highway (Vietnamese: Xa lộ Hà Nội), also known as National Route 52 (Vietnamese: Quốc lộ 52), formerly called Biên Hòa Highway (Vietnamese: Xa lộ Biên Hòa), is the road linking Ho Chi Minh City and Biên Hòa.

The road was funded by American economic aid as a part of a massive nation building effort conducted over the course of the Vietnam War.

However, many countered that the presence of the highway would encourage local residents to build communities and open businesses along the roadside, a narrative that the United States happily adopted.
