Tuyen Lam Lake in Dalat

 One of the ideal places to hunt for dewing in Da Lat is in the flooded forest of Tuyen Lam Lake. This is the largest freshwater lake in Da Lat, about 7 km from the city center in the direction of National Highway 20 to Prenn Pass.

Golf Course Cu Hill

Nam Cang - a Peaceful Sapa

 

At present, the Covid 19 pandemic has had the worst hit on Vietnam. Many localities have imposed the lockdown that has influenced upon the life of people.

Now, let's take a visual tour to Nam Cang, a peaceful Sapa, Vietnam to appease our boredom of isolation. 

Take the bus to Nam Cang on Friday night, spend the night in a house on stilts by the stream and trek. When Hanoi was in the midst of a long heat wave in July, our group took our backpacks to pick up the car to Nam Cang commune - the name is still unfamiliar to many people even though this place is only about 30 km from the center of Sa Pa.

In the local language, Nam Cang means watershed. This place is also the source of 3 big streams, Nam Cang, Nam Pa and Nam Thang deep in Hoang Lien Son National Park. As the last land in the southeast of Sa Pa district, the rhythm of life in the villages here is somewhat quieter and more peaceful. 

Nam Cang is almost isolated by the remote and bumpy road, although it is not far from the mountain town, it still retains its wild character. After about 5 hours of traveling in the morning, the group got off the bus and walked into a house on stilts in the Red Dao village. 

Instead of the "hello" and footsteps following guests like in Sa Pa, the children of Nam Cang welcomed us with crispy smiles on the way home from school, they were both playful and shy playing in the water by the stream. . 

From afar, only hearing the murmuring stream mixed with the sound of children playing, we felt all fatigue after a long journey. Stopping at the end of the village, we stayed at Topas Riverside Lodge, an isolated stilt house seats next to a large stream that everyone has to step over a swaying suspension bridge.
