For example, Hang Toi (Dark Cave) is famous for its width changing surprisingly in the darkness while Hang Sang (Bright Cave) is sparkling with strangely iridescent stalactites. Hang Nau Ruou (Cooking Wine Cave) and Hang Com (Rice Cave) are caves in which a legendary giant cooked wine and ate rice. Visiting Tam Coc in the autumn, you can feel the weather change when sightseeing rice fields. On the way from Trang An to Tam Coc, you can also visit Hang Mua (Dance Cave) where Kings of the Tran dynasty enjoyed performances by imperial maids whenever they came to Hoa Lu.

In Tam Coc, you and your partner can take romantic photos on a small boat under the clear blue sky. If you love discovering, the two of you can explore magnificent caves by boat, feel the fresh air from stalactites and listen to the sound of the wind blowing through slits and fashioning a rice smell in the air. Spectacular caves in Trang An are also great backdrops for your unique photos.

HO COC (BA RIA - VUNG TAU) - WHERE THE SKY MEETS THE SEA

Ho Coc will be your best choice if you and your lover prefer a tranquil and serene space. Here, you can listen to the sound of waves, the rustling of trees and the murmuring of the wind while walking along the beach. Not many beaches in Vietnam are located near a natural conservation forest and hot spring like Ho Coc - Binh Chau.

Ho Coc is an attractive destination not only for couples seeking a perfect place for their honeymoon and taking photos but also visitors

who go there for health and recreational purposes.

As you may know, Ho Coc Beach has been voted by Lonely Planet as one of the eight most beautiful beaches in Vietnam. According to Rough Guides, a renowned magazine in the UK, Ho Coc is also listed in the list of 20 beaches featuring the most fascinating landscapes in Vietnam. The prime location brings Ho Coc beach a unique natural beauty with its blend of sea and forest. How amazing it is if you have enough time to relax with Binh Chau’s amenities such as hot-water baths and mud-baths before taking wedding

photos on Ho Coc beach and in the primeval Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu forest.

You can also sunbathe on the white sand beach or snorkel around the coral reef.

Wild and charming, Ho Coc is like an innocent but strong girl. A variety of stone shapes on the smooth sandy beach makes Ho Coc more magnificent. Photos capturing the beauty of great waves crashing against the rocks with white foam in the stunning sunset always feature a classic beauty. Let’s enjoy a colorful sunset or wait for the bright dawn with your life partner.

KE GA CAPE (BINH THUAN) - A STRANGE BEACH

About 20km to the east from Phan Thiet, Ke Ga Cape is not only an attractive destination but also an ideal place for photographers to take impressive pictures. Unlike other beaches that enchant visitors with their smooth sandbanks, Ke Ga is famous for its strange shaped rocks and 100-year-old lighthouse.

Ke Ga Cape is one of few beaches which have not been affected by tourism in Vietnam. The pristine beauty of the nature remains with strange granites surrounded by small streams. At Ke Ga stands a lighthouse considered to be the oldest existing lighthouse in Southeast Asia. Set in the imposing landscape of Ke Ga, the lighthouse with its unique architectural style has enchanted a large number of photographers.

You can travel to Ke Ga Cape by ship or coracle (small boat made of bamboo). Staying overnight to listen to the waves crashing against the rocks is also an unforgettable experience. You should not miss this extraordinary beach if you want to have great moments and a unique wedding album.

OUTDOOR WEDDING - ENjOY THE BEAUTY Of NATURE

Banquet rooms of luxurious hotels and restaurants are often limited and difficult to decorate in your own style. Moreover, wedding planners say that in these rooms with lavish interiors (red carpet, door curtains, and so on), you need to add a lot of rustic detail. Therefore, an outdoor wedding is a better choice and fits in your budget. In a generous open space, you can creatively arrange and decorate a rustic wedding in your own perspective.

Rustic style focuses on the

simple and fine beauty of wood and flowers. Why don’t you make the wedding in the fresh air with the scent of flowers on a green hill at a luxury resort? The open space, adorned by charming streams and small zigzag walkways, would be an elegant backdrop, ideal for your rustic wedding, making your party with different groups of guests more intimate. The simple open space will harmoniously complement the decor of your rustic wedding, charming all your visitors and giving them a new peaceful feeling of love.

You can also hold your wedding party in the evening

with sparkling light of pretty candles. Simple details can bring a luxurious beauty to your party, making it different from expensive ones held in banquet rooms.

To have a perfect outdoor party and make sure that guests can conveniently travel to your wedding, you and your partner should make a reservation at a large restaurant or resort located near a lake or river in the heart of the city (near the Red River, West Lake in Hanoi or around Dist.7, HCMC). You had better ask your wedding planner and supplier for a backup plan in case of bad weather.

Having chosen a rustic style for your wedding, are you ready to immerse yourselves in the openness and fineness of the natural beauty? How to make the dream of a romantic wedding come true with a perfect ceremony and an intimate party? We hope that following recommendatings

and tips will help you find a suitable place for your perfect rustic wedding.

wedding&honeymoonguide

�� TRAVELLIVE

Couples should not over-decorate, which may badly affect the wedding’s rustic style. Simple flowers and wood are two main materials for your decor. Flowers should be arranged naturally and combined with liana.

When preparing for a rustic wedding, couples are advised to have a notebook to write down everything they need. In terms of music, country, jazz and other gentle genres are preferred. You should choose simple designs for your wedding dress rather than a bodycon dress such as fishtail, which may make you uncomfortable.

INDOOR RUSTIC WEDDING - fINE AND INTIMATE

Weather is one of the most significant factors affecting the success of your wedding. If you are going to marry in the wet season or are afraid of tropical rain in Vietnam, then the following suggestions will help you plan a rustic wedding.

OPEN SPACE

First you should choose a restaurant or hotel featuring an open space such as a lush green garden or a large longue. Wedding ceremonies can take place in that open space, with rustic decor and simple flowers blossoming in the natural sunshine. Afterward, invite your guests to enjoy scrumptious dishes in the banquet room of the same restaurant or hotel.

A SIMPLE BUT LUxURIOUS BANQUET ROOM

Let’s look for a luxurious room with a simple interior in light and elegant colours so that you do not need to pay much for added rustic details. Do not forget wood, dried flower, the main materials used in the rustic style. They will highlight your simple white room. You should take the ideas of your wedding planner to select suitable flowers if you choose a pastel coloured room.

GOOD SERVICES

To create a fine and luxurious wedding space, brides and grooms should ask for the service suppliers’ support. Although focusing much on the simple and primitive beauty of nature, a rustic wedding must be well-prepared. Make sure that your supplier has a dedicated and professional team that can meet all your need of decoration and arrange every detail from flowers to banquet tables. They should be professional and have a good attitude.

To get further information related to rustic wedding, you can come and join us at the Honeymoon Wedding Perfect Exhibition from August 21st to August 23rd at Melia Hanoi Hotel, 44B Ly Thuong Kiet Str, Hoan Kiem Dist, Hanoi.

SUMMER KISS

Summer is the most colorful season, full of stunning sunshine, with clear blue sky, red flamboyance and lush green trees. A large number of couples choose the new däcor trend of using fresh features bearing the true distinctions of tropical nature. This däcor is a harmonious blend of trees, flowers and birds, showing your fresh lifestyle. The images of birds are always favored in home däcor because of the conception “where there is good land, the birds will perch”.

Summer is sometimes hot and sparkling like passionate kisses, sometimes fresh and tender like a seasonal rain and sometimes gentle like a slight wind in a summer afternoon. Why don’t you let summer kisses make your house prettier and full of love?

CREATE YOUR OWN WEDDING ALBUM WHILE TRAVELLING ABOARD

Taking wedding photos while traveling has become a trend chosen by a larger number of young couples. These unique photos are a lovely declaration of their new life together, and the enjoyable experience of traveling leaves them with so many unforgettable memories. There is a multitude of choices in Southeast Asia, but in my own perspective, Malaysia is ideal, as its boasts countless breathtaking landscapes, luxurious accommodations, and convenient locations and transport connecting its various cities and hubs.

After a three-hour flight from Hanoi, you arrive at KLIA2 Airport. Located 30km from Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya is the federal administrative capital of Malaysia and is one of the most impressive destinations of the journey. Putrajaya is built as a garden city, as buildings only account for 25% of its total use of space. The rest includes roads, parks, sport centers and natural gardens. Here, there are lots of famous places for you to take wedding photos at, namely the Palace of Justice - Istana Kehakiman, the Perbadanan Government Complex, and the Putra Mosque. Putrajaya also offers a unique

charm, with its green spaces that are also adorned with modern bridges that cross lakes such as Seri Wawasan or Putra bridge connecting you to the Putrajaya International Conference Center - PICC, where many couples take special photos, with the backdrop of the vibrant sunset.

A SWEET HONEYMOON ON “EAGLE ISLAND”

Apart from such famous destinations as Kuala Lumpur, Genting Highland, Penang, and the ancient city of Melacca, Langkawi, the “eagle island” is a favorite place for newlyweds.

First, it is recommended to ensure you have enough money set aside, as hotels offering reasonable price on this beautiful island can be hard to come by. However, ideal accommodations with luxury services can be provided to satisfy every desire. Visitors can choose one of the following

5-star hotels during their stay: The Danna Langkawi Hotel, which features an expansive swimming pool overlooking the sea. Andaman Resort, which is designed in a classic royal style with private swimming pools and beaches within walking distance from their private villas. Meritus Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa, which boasts wooden guestrooms, and the Four Seasons, the most beautiful hotel on the island with its outstanding private blue beach, well-equipped guestrooms, and bungalows all in the finest däcor. It is advised to book a hotel here via ivivu.

com, booking.com, or agoda.com to ensure your stay on this charming island.

With a total area of 478.48 km2, Langkawi consists of 99 smaller islands and attracts travelers through Kuah Town, where there are numerous marinas and beaches, which is connected to Pantai Cenang and Langkawi Airport. Not only famous for its endless white sand beaches, the island will astound you with its magnificent mountain passes. You can experience these spectacular roads by renting a car, taxi, motorbike, or simply walking along marked paths

leading to beautiful waterfalls, lakes and ancient forests. Do not forget to visit Kuah, the administrative center, and Eagle Square, the symbol of the island located near the sea. Other striking features are Lagenda Park, Al-Hana Mosque, and Kuah Wharf, where many couples enjoy the sparkling sunset reflected on the river.

Oriental Village is a complex of hotels, commercial spaces, and entertainment centers located near the foothills. This is the only premier must-visit hotspot on the island. Here, you can enjoy a ride with the Langkawi Cable Car that rises up into the peak of the mountain to take in the stunning views of the surrounding forests as well as Kuah Bay. Afterwards, you can also have an

adventurous journey along the Sky Bridge, located at the end of the Cable Car ride. With a length of 125m, the bridge is uniquely designed in the shape of an arch that connects Mat Cincang Mountain with its neighboring mountains. Oriental Village is voted by foreigners as one of the most attractive places in Langkawi and is sought after by couples looking to take memorable newlywed photos.

If a journey into the forest isn’t exactly what you’re looking for, you and your partner can go in search of bluer waters by exploring a magical underwater world by taking a dive at the ocean park on Payar Island. Also you can arrive there via a glass-bottom ship. In the evening, you can wander along Cenang beach, sip a cocktail or local drink at a bar or cafä while enjoying the bustling atmosphere of the island.

You can also book one among a wide range of tours available at the airport. Furthermore, the shops on Langkawi

also attract thousands of shopaholics with their duty-free products, household appliances, perfume, chocolates, wine, beer, cigarettes, and cigars, which are sold at a discount of 30-50%, compared to the prices at shops in Kuala Lumpur.

DESIGN YOUR JOURNEY BASED ON YOUR

PERSONAL TASTEIf you and your new life partner like

the idea of a serene honeymoon, then exclusive resorts featuring high-class services in a tranquil place should be

top of your list. In wedding season, these resorts always offer special promotions for couples, such as

bedroom decor, spa and a dinner buffet on the beach with roses and wine and

more, promising you romantic and relaxed moments to start your happy

life together.

On the contrary, some young couples prefer adventurous excursions. They

may choose a honeymoon on a cruise, and might enjoy kayaking, explore reefs and fishing in Halong Bay. Couples can

also go trekking to ethnic minority villages and learn their culture by

touring local weekly markets in Sapa.

A journey to Da Lat is a favored choice for travelers. You and your beloved can go hiking or cycle the challenging route to the summit of Lang Biang Mountain.

Here, you will surely come across “r≠Óu c«n” (tube wine), and enjoy the

feeling of intoxication from this locally-made beverage.

FIND A BEAUTIFUL PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIMEAt the end of the year, from September to December, domestic destinations including beaches and islands are visited by many couples enjoying their sweet honeymoons. Halong Bay, Con

Dao, Phu Quoc, Nha Trang, Danang and Ly Son not only attract visitors with their cool, refreshing air but also offer delicious seafood such as lobster, crayfish, oysters, fish, crab, scallops and clams.

In November, Sapa, Moc Chau, Mu Cang Chai and other beautiful places in the North of Vietnam offer equally intriguing destinations for couples who want to immerse themselves in the endless vistas of mountains and yellow terraced rice fields. There, you can also dance with locals or learn the lip trumpet used by ethnic people to call their lovers. This is a great start for your new life together.

If you like the hustle and bustle of foreign destinations like Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, Australia, the US or the Caribbean, then these places might seduce you into

enjoying their cuisines and participating in a variety of activities with your new spouse. Moreover, do not miss the much anticipated Mega Sale annual promotions held in November and December. You can prepare for your new life by hunting for household appliances, electronics and clothes at special rates.

DRAW UP YOUR BUDGETTo have a perfect honeymoon, setting your budget is one of the most significant steps in choosing a suitable tour. Consulting services are available for you to get further information and compare different places before you make the final decision. You can choose from a wide selection provided by travel agencies. Many couples decide to take a “Free and Easy” tour for two people with flights and hotel rooms included. Destinations and activities will be recommended by travel agencies. You can easily select them according to your needs, hobbies and interests.

Otherwise, you can choose a package tour to save money. Joining this kind of tour, you will travel with others and be encouraged to choose some extra services as highlights for your honeymoon.

This article is supported by Fiditour. For further information, please visit www.fiditour.com

In wedding and honeymoon season, many couples have difficulty

arranging their journey and making a budget. Therefore, we would like to provide you with some tips and

recommendations for different tastes, budgets and seasons.

Ancient Roman wedding ceremonies

were brought to a close by breaking a cake of wheat or barley over the bride's head as a

symbol of good fortune. In the UK, people throw many small

cakes over the bride to hope for luck and fertility. Nowadays,

cutting wedding cake has become a common

custom highlighting the special day of the couple and wedding

cakes covered by fondant are considered

FONDANT - THE ART OF ICING SUGAR

Fondant is a firm sugar icing mixed with glucose commonly used to decorate cakes. The word "fondant" comes from the French word "fondre", which means "to melt". Normal cream cakes decorated with cheese and fresh milk cream feature rich flavors while fondant cakes are less sweet but even more delicious.

Since the 15th century, chefs have used rolled Fondant to mold different shapes. From the 20th century, Fondant has been officially used for cake decoration and has become one of the core subjects in bakery classes. Fondant creates smooth, seamless and stunning coverings that other frostings can not do, making wedding cakes as beautiful and as sophisticated as works of art. A striking example of a Fondant cake is the wedding cake of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. With a height of 3m, the cake featured 4 tasty tiers sculpted with unique details of the palace and royal statues. Another excellent one is the cake at Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding. The cake was adorned with 900 sugar paste flowers including ivy flowers for love and marriage, lilies for sweetness and modesty, daisies for innocence and beauty, apple flowers for luck and white heathers for dreams coming true.

FONDANT WEDDING CAKE TREND IN VIETNAM

A Fondant wedding cakes' shape and color survive at high temperatures for a long time. This is the reason why this type of cake is favored at outdoor parties, especially in tropical countries like Vietnam. It is quite hard to make Fondant cakes because of the handing properties of icing sugar. Only talented pastry decorators can roll Fondant sheets perfectly and apply them to the cake.

There are two main types of fondant. Rolled fondant is more popular for wedding decoration in Vietnam. Its main ingredients include gelatine, water, fructose, powdered sugar, food-grade glycerine and various flavors of fruits such as lemon. Sweet but not rich, 3-5mm thick rolled fondant sheets will make smooth and shiny coverings and a stable foundation for further

creative designs.

On the foundation created by rolled fondant, artists can freely draw or sculpt special patterns. Sculpting fondant is becoming more and more popular in Vietnam with a multitude of sculpted patterns including peony, roses, apricot blossoms and orchids, along with cartoon characters and characters representing couples. The cake can be sculpted with the couple's special symbols such as a shoes or tennis courts. Sculpting fondant is a real art for cake designers.

Despite being less popular, painting on fondant is also very interesting. On the smooth foundation of fondant, artists can show their creativity with pictures painted with culinary colors. Unlike painting on paper, drawing on Fondant requires the patience of artists because they need wait for the first line to dry before drawing the nextone .

Since the 2010s, hand-painted wedding cakes have become widely noticed and chosen by many couples. This year, wedding cakes adorned with floral patterns have become more popular at Vietnamese weddings. White or pastel covered cakes highlighted by flowers have a romantic, gentle beauty, whereas sparkling yellow cakes with strong lines can reflect the personal taste of dynamic couples.

The wedding cake is not only a present used to decorate or showcase the owners' personal taste, but also expresses a wish for happiness and prosperity. When the spouses cut the cake, they promise to live together, sharing all the happiness of life. Wedding cakes, especially fondant cakes, really contribute to the start of their new life together.

Relaxing and enjoying the natural beauty and pure air of Dambulla Lake is a great experience for any visitors visiting Sri Lanka. Here, caves, temples, and

zoos, will make your journey more memorable.

I visit this Buddhist country on a summer day, and go straight to Dambulla from Colombo airport. After 4 hours travelling by car, Dambulla gradually appears and brings me some strange feelings that I can’t express. It’s simple and peaceful in Sri Lanka’s own style. I’m pleased with my decision of choosing Dambulla as the main place to stay. Why? Located in the center of the ancient sites of Sri Lanka, Dambulla makes it easier for me to go to other famous attractions. In particular, the area surrounding Dambulla Lake is a favorite place for tourists.

RELAX BY THE LAKE

Dambulla Amaya Lake Resort greets me with pretty smiles and a traditional drum performance played by local women tapping their hands. Located in the center of Dambulla

Lake, the resort immerses itself in picturesque scenery. In such a beautiful place, when the sun is leaving its’ colorful light on the lake’s surface, how pleasant it is to slowly enjoy a cup of hot black Sri Lanka tea.

I sit by the lake and look at the immense sky, turquoise surface,

and surfing waves like romantic, melodious and eternal music that can wipe out all of my daily worries. Nearby, an artist is playing the flute in a tree house. The piping echoing around the resort with the sweet melody of Sri Lanka makes this place more peaceful.

After a good night in the fresh air, when the sun rises I have my breakfast on the table in the middle of a garden near Dambulla Lake. I feel as if I could take in the breath of the foggy forest drifting over the misty surface of the lake in the mysterious morning dew.

I FEEL AS IF I COULD TAKE IN

SACRED CAVE Of DAMBULLA

In Sri Lanka, there are a multitude of caves carved about 10m into the rock by ancient monks to worship Buddha. In these caves, there is always a statue of Nirvana Buddha and almost all of statues, regardless of size, were carved in a monolithic style. Situated at 200m higher than the surrounding delta, Dambulla Cave Temple is the oldest area of stone Buddha statues in Sri Lanka.

The temple is composed of five caves worshiping different Buddhas and Kings of Sri Lanka. The first one, called Dev Raja Viharaya, is the cave of the Divine King, founder of the cave. There are also the stone statues of other Buddhas and the Nirvana, which was sculpted vertically. The second cave is the largest one, with sophisticated architecture, designed with tempera paintings and sculptural works which remain incomplete.

The fifth and also the smallest cave was created from natural stones and is surrounded by four walls displaying 11 statues of Buddha, including a lean and prominent statue which is higher than others. In Dambulla, I realize the statue of Buddha represents the beliefs of locals no matter where it is: on the road, on a tree trunk, on the middle of a market or even at a roundabout.

SIGIRIYA fORTRESS

My next destination is Sigiriya Fortress - one of eight world heritage sites recognized by UNESCO in this country. It’s believed that in 477, Prince Kashyapa, supported by his relative, had King Dhatusena killed and became the King himself. Fearing being avenged someday, King Kashyapa decided to make Sigiriya his kingdom and his fortress for safety.

Coming along the path between two big stones, I find the Lion mountain, the other name of Sigiriya, named as such

because of the shape of two huge Lion’s paws built on the rock. The Lion’s head and body are not found but it’s thought that when you go back and view it from a long distance, you can see a lion genuflecting with the rock mountain and royal palace on his head. Through the Lion’s paw stairway, you reach the summit where the Palace’s foundation used to be, but now only rock remains.

Sigiriya is also famous for the paintings of beautiful female figures drawn with lissome lines and naked breasts on rock faces; all of them have semi bodies. It’s said that there were 500 paintings here; however, just 22 are left now.

INTERESTING SAfARI EXPERIENCE

I have spent a lot of time exploring ancient areas but have not seen enough of this place and the last destination is still waiting for me. This is the Safari wildlife reservation area. About 20km from

101 TRAVELLIVE

Dambulla city, with more than 100 elephants, Minneriya is the largest wildlife park in Sri Lanka.

Firstly, I go through a forest by jeep. After 10 and then 15 minutes, I’m quite impatient, having seen nothing special. As the jeep crosses a river, a blue lake appears with the breathtaking scenery of a wild tropical forest. Breathing the

cool and fresh air of the vast forest, I see groups of elephants eating grass. Some little elephants slowly following their mothers as if they didn’t care about anything around them, not even flash lights from cameras of photographers. This is a valuable journey bringing me a chance to witness the life of wild animals because there are not

many natural forests allowing tourists to go sightseeing like Minneriya.

Time goes fast. Every day in Dambulla has been exciting. Architectural works, the breathtaking beauty of nature, lovely elephants and the deep and sparkling eyes of local girls all promise to attract more and more visitors.

fURTHER INfORMATION:

Itinerary: From Vietnam, you can book a ticket through Thai Airways or Singapore Airlines, with a transit in Bangkok or Singapore, then take the next flight to Colombo, the commercial capital of Sri Lanka. It then takes about 4 hours to travel to Dambulla by car.

Visa to Sri Lanka: please visit the website http://www.eta.gov.lk to ask for Visa online. Fee: USD30.

Accommodation: There are many good guesthouses and hotels in Dambulla. You can choose Amaya Lake Dambulla, the only resort near the lake. Here, there are many tours for visitors as well.

Sightseeing: Dambulla cave temple (Golden

temple of Dambulla)Sri Mahabodhiya with the 2,200

year-old Bodhi tree derived from the tree in Bodhgaya where the Buddha reached the peak of the Way

Isurumuniya temple built in the 3rd century BC with carving works in caves.

When you visit caves in Dambulla, you are advised to go in order from the 5th to the 1st so that you can see increasingly splendid of caves. The 2nd cave is the most splendid and amazing.

Notice:When visiting temples, you should

bring a cart to cover your shoulders and hands. Keep silent and don’t take photos when the locals are celebrating their ceremony. Take off your shoes before coming in.

Wear sneakers when climbing the 2500 steps of Sigiriya.

Souvenir:Statues and other wooden products:

you can find different kinds of wooden products, especially eye-catching and colorful masks in carpenters’ shops.

Leather goodsBlack tea such as Dilmah and

Macwood.

ha tien

From early times, Ha Tien has been well known for a romantic love story which is

more sorrowful than the legend of Nguu Lang - Chuc Nu. This story is about Mac Thien Tich, the military governor of Ha Tien, and the poetess Phu Cu. It is considered a highlight of “Ha Tien thap canh” (ten scenes in Ha Tien),

and gives this township much of its attraction.

With a 13km border with Cambodia, 45km by sea from Phu Quoc and featuring 26km of coastline, Ha Tien is a beautiful township in the extreme southwest of Vietnam.

HOMETOWN Of CHIEU ANH CAC LITERARY COTERIE

In the summer afternoon, the scorching sun slowly falls behind To Chau Mountain and glints its last rays on Dong Ho Lake. With a total area of 1000 ha, the lake looks like a giant mirror surrounded by mountains and sea. The sea breeze brings fresh air to the

land. There are some houses immersed in smoke their kitchen, and locals on boats are drawing up their nets far away. How peaceful this land is!

Visiting Ha Tien, the first thought that comes to a traveler’s mind is that the township is an ancient village with the majesty of historical monuments, with palaces, antique temples and pagodas built long ago. Ha Tien is considered a place of poets and writers. Mac Thien Tich (1718-1780), the military governor of Ha Tien, is a son of general Mac Cuu who had reclaimed Ha Tien. Mac Tien Thich is also a renowned poet and the main founder of Chau Anh Cac literary coterie, where famous poets gathered together to share their excellent works. He is most famous for “Ha Tien thap vinh”, a poetry describing ten peaceful, ancient and ever-lasting scenes in Ha Tien.

BEAUTIfUL LOVE STORY

AND THE ANCIENT TEMPLE

Binh San Mountain is one of ten scenes mentioned in “Ha Tien thap vinh”. Located on the foot of this mountain, Phu Dung Temple is a place attracting pilgrims and tourists alike. The temple draws travelers with not only its antique architecture but also its mysterious story. It is believed that Phu Dung Temple was built by Mac Thien Tich and became a place for his wife Phu Cu (1720-1761) to lead a religious life. She is Nguyen Thi xuan, the daughter of Nguyen Dinh, a mandarin under the Le dynasty. When the Mac dynasty took over the position of the Le dynasty, Nguyen Dinh and his two children ran to Ha Tien. His son was a good swordsman and fought for the Mac dynasty. His daughter, Nguyen Thi xuan was very beautiful and also a good writer.

10� TRAVELLIVE

After some meetings with Nguyen Thi xuan at Chieu Anh Cac, Mac Thien Tich was impressed by her beauty and talent and decided to marry her. Nguyen Thi xuan became his concubine. She was loved so much that Mac Thien Tich’s first wife got jealous. The first wife threatened her life, but luckily, she escaped from death. Afterward, however, she felt fed up with her imperial life and decided to live a religious one. Having no choice, Mac Thien Tich built a small temple for her. He dug a pond and planted white lotuses himself to commemorate their faithful love. When Nguyen Thi xuan died, he built a stately and gentle tomb for her, the beautiful and talented woman who sacrificed a lot for him. This love story has inspired many poets to write numerous works.

“HA TIEN NGU CANH” (fIVE SCENES IN HA TIEN)

Due to time’s toll, both natural and human inflicted, only five of the ten scenes of Ha Tien remain, including “Kim Du lan dao”, “Nam Pho trung ba”, “Giang Thanh da co”, “Dong Ho an nguyet” and “Lu Khe

ngu bac”. Visitors can travel to the famed scenes with the following itinerary. From Ha Tien, drive 4km to Thach Dong then go 1km to Da Dung Mountain. From Da Dung, turn left and follow zigzagging roads surrounded by green rice fields to Mui Nai tourism area. This is a beautiful beach for you to sunbathe on, listen to the sound of waves and enjoy fresh seafood. From Mui Nai, you can travel to Mui Den and Hang temple. You should spend most of your time there enjoying the magnificent beauty of nature. It is about 40km from Mui Nai to Hang temple. Here, there are some small islets and bays like the “small Halong Bay”.

Do not forget to visit Mac’s ancestral temple. The mossy stone stairs lead to the tombs of Mac’s family members who lived 300 years ago and were the founders of Ha Tien township. Mac Cuu was skilled in the arts of war, whereas Mac Thien Tich was both an excellent swordsman and respected writer. You should also visit Mac Cuu’s statue at Mui Tau Park, To Chau Ward. With a height of 7m and placed on a 3-meter pedestal, the statue is the cultural symbol of this land.

Indeed, this township not only attracts visitors by its natural beauty with an immense delta, magnificent mountains, caves and bays but also is renowned for romantic love stories. Ha Tien, in the extreme southwest of Vietnam, is one of the best choices for couples as well.

Thach Dong - one of ten beautiful scenes in Ha Tien

fURTHER INfORMATION:

Ten scenes in Ha Tien include “Kim Du lan dao” (golden island against waves - Phao Dai Mountain), “Binh San diep thuy” (Binh San Mountain), “Tieu Tu than chung” (peaceful space in Tam Bao temple), “Giang Thanh da co” (drums in Giang Thanh rampart at night), “Thach Dong thon van” (Thach Dong mountain), “Chau Nham lac lo” (stocks in Chau Nham - Da Dung Mountain), “Dong Ho an nguyet” (moon in Dong Ho pond), “Nam Pho trung ba” (Nam beach or Ot beach), “Loc Tri thon cu” (Mui Nai hamlet), “Lu Khe ngu bac” (Rach Vuot). Among them, Binh San is where the ancient temple of Phu Dung is located.

Itinerary: It is about 350km from HCMC to Ha Tien and takes 7 hours to travel by bus. You can also travel by motorbike or plane.

Bus: You can take high quality Kumho bus departuring from Le Hong Phong station and Western bus station Saigon, Phuong Trang bus or Mai Linh bus.

Plane: You can travel to Rach Gia with Vietnam Airlines’ flight then take a bus to Ha Tien

Cuisine: Do not miss seafood such as melomelo, bream and crap. Mantis shrimp with scrumptious flavor of sea is one of must-try specialties here. Nothing is better than enjoying stream crab with salt, pepper and lemon on Mui Nai beach.

travelText and photos: Thu Giang

From my own perspective, perhaps after some of the renowned cities of Italy, Porto, a port city in Portugal, is one of the most romantic places on earth, bringing

me a very special feeling of love.

On a summer morning, it is still quite cold outside. I slowly walk along small streets under the slight sunlight to explore one of the most romantic cities in Europe. In fact, the city’s old name, Portus Cale, is where the name Portugal is derived from.

AZULEjOS - AMAZING CERAMIC PICTURES

On the way to the city centre, I am fascinated with the unique architectural design of this place. With its long history

and rich culture, Porto is like walking through a Baroque museum. The most prominent works of art are the enameled bricks used to decorate the interior and exterior walls of buildings. These enameled bricks together create priceless pictures in different themes such as the daily life of farmers on the outskirts of the city, or depictions of a historic battle. These special paintings are found everywhere in Porto, even on small fingerboards or restaurants’ billboards, bringing a unique beauty to the city.

In Igreja de Santo Il Defonso church, I am mesmerized with the azulejo (ceramic paintings) on its exterior walls. The most famous site is S∑o Bento railway station, built in the 1990s on the site of an old monastery. The lounge of the station is actually a great gallery displaying precious azulejos on various themes.

ALONG DOURO RIVER

Visiting Porto, you should spend at least one day walking along Douro River. Dom Luis Bridge, a masterpiece of legendary architect Gustave Eiffel, is the highlight of my excursion. The bridge is renowned for its unique beauty. Seen from afar, it is a huge arc with hundreds of stairs from the edge of the river to the bridge’s deck. Dom Luis used to hold the world record for the largest span in the 19th century. Spending hours on a boat, I passionately enjoy the beautiful and spectacular scenes along the river. Red roofed houses on hillsides, small boats bobbing on the waves, a handicrafts fair and other fascinating highlights make the painting of this river more impressive.

TRAVELLIVE11�

At the end of the day, I decide to walk across the bridge to experience its height. Hovering at an altitude of 47m above the river and letting the wind run through my hair under the last rays of the sun, I sometimes stop to watch bobbing boats or a group of ships carrying wine up

and down the river, or look over to see rows of houses terraced on the hillside. How romantic these scenes are!

GO SIGHTSEEING AROUND THE OLD QUARTER BY TRAIN

If you want to travel on the hilly streets of Porto, then the train will be your best option. You can reach the highest point of the street on an old train for only €1,8. The driver told me that this kind of train was the idea of high-heeled women loaded with bags from the market, who would otherwise be condemned to walk the hills.

What impresses me most in the old quarter is the modern world inside antique buildings. Famous fashion brands showcase their products right behind unexpected antique doors, fast food is offered along old streets that you’d expect

to be lined with street vendors and family-owned restaurants. The old quarter is always crowded with travelers attracted by old restaurants, beautifully designed fashion shops and cafäs renowned for special Porto hot chocolate. I visit Majestic cafä, said to be the oldest cafä in Porto. Its interior retains the original appearance it had in its fi rst days, 200 years ago. Waiters serve customers with their friendliest smiles, willing to stop for a moment to take photos for you.

As night comes, the two riverbanks appear in a new light as streetlamps and restaurants brighten in the dark. Couples walk together along the river; groups of teenagers happily chat, enjoying the music. Lights from colorful buildings overlooking the cliffs of the Duoro River turn the water into an impressionist painting, giving it a magic it never had in the daytime.

Porto is a blend of natural beauty, unique art, romantic atmosphere and the hospitality of locals.

fURTHER INfORMATION

Itinerary: a round flight from HCMC to Porto (transit in Brussels or Paris) costs about $1,300

It is quite easy to travel by public transportation in the city. You can visit famous destinations by yellow bus for only €15/ 2 days. Buses feature wifi connection and an audio narration of each attraction.

Souvenir: there are many souvenirs bearing images of Barcelos, the symbol of Porto.

You should bring suitable shoes to walk along the steep roads in Porto.

Currency: EUR. Prices in Porto are lower than in most of EU countries.

Cuisine: Portugal is famous for soup and stews. Caldo verde, made from potatoes, onions, garlic, collard greens and olive oil, must be at the top of your list. Bacalao is considered a Portuguese national specialty. It is said that there are more than 200 recipes for this fish stew. However, the most popular one involves baking the fish to keep its fresh flavor.

Wine restaurants: Calem, Ramos Pinto, Offley and Taylors

Recommended restaurants: Rua da Conceicao, Portucale, Rua da Alegria, Pombeiro and Rua Capitao Pombeiro. You should visit Majestic cafä, a famous cafä in the old quarter

PORT WINE - THE SWEET fLAVOR Of LOVE

The extremely hot summer and cold winter make grapes grown in Douro valley’s vineyards unique. This kind of grape is also the main ingredient to produce port wine, which is world-famous for its excellent quality. Vinho Verde or “green wine” is made from green grapes, producing a lightly fizzy, slightly acidic flavor. I visit Calem wine cellar to discover the process of wine production and don’t mind getting a little tipsy at a tasting. After going around the cellar, I decide to drink a glass of Port. I take small sips to enjoy its pervasive taste and flavor.

Night in Porto is beautiful and romantic, with yellow lights from old buildings, steep roads leading to the church, and the city square engulfed in bright and dark. Food lovers enjoy the cuisine at restaurants adorned with sparkling candles, and couples walk along the streets and listen to accordion players. I love sipping a glass of port wine and enjoying Faro’s love songs. These songs, accompanied by guitar, are simple but passionate and seem to bare the Portuguese soul.

travel Text and photos: Thanh Tra

Impressed by the romantic beauty of Salzburg, a small city located in the west of Austria, I can’t

help but say “films are just like real life” rather than thinking “the whole of life is just like watching a film”, the usual clichä. The Sound

of Music, a renowned musical film, is set in this city, with no effects used to make the scenes more beautiful. Salzburg is amazing in itself, not only when being fictionalized in the film but

also in reality, attracting millions of visitors each year.

“S¢N KHƒU” SALZBURG T\ TR£N CAO.

A scene in The Sound of Music 1965.

LISTEN TO “THE SOUND Of MUSIC” IN SALZBURG

Filmed in Salzburg in 1965, The Sound of Music is a musical drama that has touched the souls of audiences for generations. On the way to Salzburg, we have a chance to enjoy the film right on the bus. When we excitedly point out where each scene was filmed, Mr. Maroine Dib, our guide, enthusiastically shares that “85% of visitors come here because of the film. Salzburg is renowned for Mozart and The Sound of Music, and the beautiful landscape you are enjoying is the film’s setting.”

At each station, scenes of the film seem to appear in front of my eyes. I see Maria, a young woman studying to become a nun, sent to the villa of widowed Captain Georg von Trapp to be governess to his seven children. I see her going out of the monastery, singing beautiful songs or sailing on a sparking river. Moreover, I feel as if I was there in a garden filled with moonlight, dew and flowers where she bashfully kisses her lover. Despite its small size, Salzburg offers more than what you might expect or imagine, with well-preserved historic works belonging to many eras and in different styles, the city a blend of medieval, Romantic, Renaissance and Baroque architecture.

Dib is so proud of living in Salzburg. “Salzburg features precious architectural works of all periods”, he says. The city is a story of music and perhaps there is no ache of dissonance among these happy melodies.

Across Hellbrunn Palace, which was built in the 17th century (1613-1619), we go up the mountain on the oldest funicular railway in the world. This railway leads to Hohensalzburg, the biggest historic fortress in Central Europe, located on

Festungsberg hill. Millions of visitors have chosen this place to enjoy the amazing panoramic view of the Salzburg “stage”. Surrounded by a part of the Alps and adorned by monasteries, lawns, parks, rivers and churches, Salzburg is like a clear 3D panoramic film.

Breathless while taking photos on the top of the mountain, we suddenly hear strange melodies. All of us close our eyes and listen carefully to melodies created by 35 church bells ringing different notes at the same time. When the last ring resounds in this immense space, the separate clangs blending and swallowed by the mountains, I feel like I was standing in a giant bell. In this bell, I can only hear those special and intricate melodies that cannot be imagined in the mind of any conductor in any opera house. At that time, Salzburg is like the largest outdoor stage I have ever known.

From Hohensalzburg fortress, visitors can also see Nonnberg Nunnery, which is considered the oldest continuously operating nunnery in the world. This nunnery plays a significant role in the

film, and here I attempt to find out where Mother Superior and other nuns helped Maria’s family escape from the nunnery when the Nazis tried to arrest them. This is the first time I felt surprisingly happy when visiting a new place.

85% of visitors come here because of the

film. Salzburg is renowned for Mozart

and The Sound of Music, and the

beautiful landscape you are enjoying is the

film’s setting”.

THE HOUSE WHERE LEOPOLD Mozart, A VIOLINIST, TAUGHT HIS SON WOLFGANG, DRAWS AS MANY VISITORS AS THE CITY DOES.

MOZART IS HERE, SOMEWHERE

Joseph Haydn, an Austrian composer, wrote that “posterity will not see such a talent again in 100 years”. The mentioned “talent” is none other than Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Salzburg is his birthplace and the city where the genius lived almost all of his 35-year life.

The house where Leopold Mozart, a violinist, taught his son Wolfgang, draws as many visitors as the city does. Regardless of the fact that his short life contained many vicissitudes, Mozart’s influence and works are still the reason why a large number of visitors come to Salzburg. The visitors here are also impressed by the way the inhabitants earn money from Mozart’s reputation.

Whether or not you are concerned with classical music, when visiting Salzburg, you will know who Mozart is. You will run into his face whenever you go. You will see Mozart made from cardboard, standing in front of a restaurant and welcoming you in. You can even enjoy

Mozart chocolate and Mozart chocolate wine. Mozartkugel, a special chocolate candy with almonds inside, is a great choice. Even if you had not heard of Mozart before your journey here, you certainly will by the end of it - in the tour guide’s introduction, Mozart’s image at restaurants and hotels, even souvenirs bearing Mozart’s name.

Mozart here is a lucrative brand!

UNDERGROUND fIREWORKS

The sites do not stop at Mozart’s home. After a 45-minute drive from Salzburg, following a beautiful road, we arrived at the 500-year-old salt mine in Saberchtesgaden. There is only a small, simple house and we do not spend much time here. However, I start feeling more curious while wearing gray miner’s clothes. The train we board follows a circular route leading underground, with visitors sitting close to each other, hearing the sound of the wheels rubbing against the rails and feeling the cold,

fURTHER INfORMATION

Itinerary: From Vietnam, through Vietnam Airlines’ connecting flights including HCMC - Frankfurt - Vienna - Salzburg - Berchtesgaden - Munich - HCMC, visitors can travel to Salzburg. From Frankfurt, you need to take a connecting flight to Vienne (Austria) so you can also visit Vienne for a day before traveling to Salzburg. It takes about 3 hours to drive from Vienne to Salzburg (315km).

Recommended restaurant: Steirische Weinstuben

Recommended hotel: 4-star Austria Trend Salzburg hotel

It is 24km from Salzburg to the salt mine in Berchtesgaden. You can drive on the way to Munich - 45 minutes.

Notes:Pay attention when buying

products of famous brand names such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Adidas. If you buy fake products or bring them to the airport, you can be punished with a €2,000 fine or more.

Bring some medicine with you because it is expensive and hard to buy them in Austria.

exchange VND to eUR in Vietnam and bring some coins to buy water or go to the toilet. The exchange fee in the EU (airport and big cities) is higher than in Vietnam.

Making phone calls is expensive in the EU. If you call Vietnam, a €10 card can be used for only 3 - 4 minutes. If you have a smart phone or tablet, you should to buy a domestic SIM to use 3G (wifi at hotels is often not included in the price). A SIM costs about €30 at the airport and €20 at local stores.

Do not use your rented car more than 10 hours per day if you want to get insurance and not have to pay a penalty. In each car, there is a paper disk recording your activities. Police have the right to check the disk and punish those who violate the law. You have to turn off your car at special parking places to reduce emissions and protect the environment.

according to insurance laws, each taxi can only be used for 3 persons. Ask and bargain with the driver first if you have 4 persons.

humid air in the dark mine. The tunnels get narrower and it grows colder and more humid as we plunge deeper into the mine.

We arrive at the first stop wondering when we can see the sun again. There was a large room, surrounded by stone walls that could have held hundreds of people. We explore this fascinating underground world, find a prayer room for miners who lived and worked here for over a month at a time. Each room features a large wooden door, each containing a unique set of stories behind it. With the laser system, the guide gives us interesting information about the process of mining salt hundreds of years ago.

One of the rooms is an underground cinema. We sit around a 3D cube of

glass which displays the structure of salt crystals and we watch a short fi lm about the process of separating and filtering salt from rock underground. A museum was built to highlight the beauty of salt, sometimes considered to be a kind of gem. Salt crystals displayed in glass boxes shine brightly like diamonds with different shapes, colors and faces.

Suddenly, another door opens and in front of my eyes is a cave with a high dome. I walk on a giant mirror before getting on a boat. All the lights go out and we travel along the mystical underground salt lake. A symphony of Beethoven suddenly plays. Laser beams start dancing on the dome and two walls to refl ect salt crystals and create various motion patterns like fi reworks going off under the ground.

From my point of view, the fi reworks were made possible not only by shining salt crystals but also by the talent of the miners, the flowers of life and the happiness of watching the shining beauty of man’s capabilities.

TRAVELLIVE130

Text and photos: Harry Trung NguyenComing back from Kenya, an east African country and the homeland of American President Barack Obama's father, Harry Trung Nguyen

would like to share with Travellive's readers of some special experiences which are still full in his mind.

Kenya "THE CALL OF THE

WILD"

itinerary

131 TRAVELLIVE

After a long journey, I still feel like I am immersing myself in the strange beauty

of the wild with its wind, its smell of wild animals and strange scent of plants, the way the sunshine plays ecstatically in an endless plain of grass. Kenya offers a majestic picture, spangled with hundreds of zebras walking slowly through a serene savannah, herds of hundreds of buffalo returning home, thousands of flamingos layering the sky with color.

It takes over nine hours to fly nearly halfway around the world on Kenya Airways to Nairobi, the capital of Kenya. The east African country greets me with its cool air, reminding me of Dalat back home, or a Western country. On the way from the airport to my hotel, I am amazed by the numerous flocks of pelicans sitting in trees or happily flying in the sky. It's hard to believe that you are in a bustling city and not in a remote forest.

ABERDARE - IMMENSE FORESTOn the first day in Nairobi, I have the chance to make friends with cute, friendly giraffes, play with jocular local children and enjoy effervescent traditional music

whilst dining in a restaurant. On the second day, my team leaves Nairobi in the early morning to visit Aberdare National Park. I am overcome with a sense of calm as I eat scrumptious specialties in the cool air and gaze at giraffes, zebras and wild boars wandering in their own world. We go into the forest and find a single house, surrounded by trees. It is difficult to find the right words to express the feeling of excitement I have when listening to the symphony of the forest, composed anew every day by the numerous species here.

When I open the door, in front me are herds of forest buffalo passing by. Over there I see elephants and deer; behind me, hyenas go hunting. Right after being picked up at the bus station, I know that I am wandering in a different world, as if I has been transported to the world of a million years ago. Following the tour guides, we walk along wooden steps leading to the forest. How amazing to be here, in a wild forest! Near the wooden house I stay overnight to listen to the sound of the forest; looking through the window, holding my camera, I wait enthusiastically and get ready to take pictures of forest buffalo, deer, elephants, hyenas and other wild animals.

Right after being picked up at the bus station, I immediately know that I am wandering in a different world, as if I has been transported to the world of a million years ago.

FURTHER INFORMATION

- Time: The ideal time to travel there is from July to September when thousands of animals migrating.

- Visa: It's quite easy to ask for on arrival visa at Nairobi Airport without any problems. A single entry costs USD50.

- Weather: It's not too hot or too cold. The average temperature is 16-24oC. It's hot on sunny day but quite cool under shape of trees.

- You should bring a thin jacket because it is often colder in the evening and at night. You should not wear colorful clothes to avoid being noticed by wild animals.

- Cuisine: Kenya dishes are various and brings food lovers interesting dining experience.

- People: Locals are friendly. However, you should not interact much with strangers and avoid going alone.

TRAVELLIVE132

I can see them approaching the house, just a few meters away, and I can smell their scent, hear their breath. That night, a night in the jungle, unlike anything I've experienced before, is sure to stay with me a long while.

NAKURU LAKE, A DISCOVERY CHANNEL FAVORITE

Leaving Aberdare, we travel to Nakuru Lake. The lake, bordered by forest and an abundance of colorful scenery, dispels the

tiredness of a full day travelling. Deer frolic in the grassland as a herd of zebra return to their home

under a colorful sunset. The scene is simply unreal, and I feel as though I'm watching Discovery Channel, National Geographic or enjoying The Lion King.The beauty of Kenya is not only in its wildlife, but unexpectedly in the architecture of each resort. Here, resorts are uniquely designed in a rustic style, using bamboo as the main material. Every room, from guestroom to kitchen to bathroom (yes, even the toilet), is perfectly adorned with the color of lush green trees. Perhaps this is the only place in the world where you can listen to the songs of birds, see deer walking around, monkeys playing in trees, and even hippopotami wandering in the evening.

This country has more to offer than the stereotypes we might

expect. Yes, it is hot here, and yes, you will come across poor children in the street. And yet at times the weather cools, and you can relax in the shade. Locals are friendly and dedicated to serving their guests, speak English quite well. Their hospitality alone can make your journey worth it.

While I did not come during the wet season, where the sky at times is blotted out in the pinks of passing flamingos, I still am excited to see a dwindling flock. The most amazing moments are when I hold my camera and follow thousand of them flying in the sky. We say goodbye to Nakuru before three jeeps drive us through numerous mountain passes, forests, towns and villages. Our journey is occasionally spattered with rain.

The aroma of grass, trees and lavender puts me at ease, my surroundings filling my mind up full.

133 TRAVELLIVE

FURTHER INFORMATION

- Security: It is normal to find police officers with guns in important places such as hotels and nature reserves. Your luggage may be checked before you enter these areas.

- Epidemic: There are not any serious diseases in Kenya; however, you should have jaundice and typhoid vaccination before your departure because you need to present your papers at the airport when you return home.

- Photography:

*Equipments: You should use DSLR cameras with high speed and good ISO. Supertele lenses with 400-600mm focal are best. One of the most suitable lenses is Tamron 150-600mm.

*It is not easy to take photos of wild animals. You must be ready at all times to catch a lion or a leopard suddenly appearing in front of your lens. You have only 1 or 2 minutes to capture them.

- Atlanta Travel offers 8-day/7-night Photo Tour Kenya. For further information, please visit www.atlantatravel.vn.

OVERNIGHT WITH WILD ANIMALS IN MAASAI MARA Late afternoon, we arrive in Maasai Mara, the largest wildlife preserve in Kenya. In the dark we can make out a leopard suddenly appearing in front of the window of our car. We are terrifled but so excited. My friend started singing, making the atmosphere more strange and scary.

Staying at Kekorok Resort - Maasai Mara. The novelty of just sitting and listening to the sounds of the outdoors is a joy in itself. Outside the resort, just a few dozen meters away, hippos are walking around, foraging for their dinner. The aroma of grass, trees and lavender puts me at ease, my surroundings fllling my mind up.

When you visit this country for yourself, taking in the aroma of the forest and immense grassland with your own nose, feeling the stunning sunshine and the vitality the air gives with your own body, only then will you understand why I fell in love with Kenya . Here are not the bored beasts you see in the zoo, but lively creatures

depending on their own instincts for survival, living it out in their own world. One of the most memorable experiences I had in Maasai Mara was during a game drive, a journey to look for giraffes, elephants, lions and leopards. It is difficult to forget the image of lion herds passing your way. All you can do is stare and watch them pass. At moments like these I am reminded how much I love our world, which still has some pockets of wildness among it.

However, with the game drive journey in Maasai Mara, we do not have the chance to see a fully-maned male lion, one reminiscent of Mufasa himself. This fact urges me to come back here someday. Another regret is that while we were excited to watch the herd of lion spy on a forest boar, the boar recognized the lions and ran away, taking our chance of seeing a real chase.

This wondrous 8-day journey made such an impression that back in Hanoi I still feel like I'm wandering around the savannah in those same scenes of sharp sunlight. I can still hear the songs

of wild animals, the rumble and trumpet of elephants calling their friends. I can still see hundreds of zebras walking in front of me, and somewhere off are herds of deer eating grass. At times I wish I were a lion, wandering the grassland, head filled with nothing but the task of survival. I promise that one day I'll return.

Whenever visiting hue, I go to Cau hai, find a tranquil space to forget all daily worries. Unlike previous photos, this one is taken with a view from the sky. The serene beauty of Cau hai reappears not only at a small corner but also on the immense surface of the lagoon.
