Poetry of ten o'clock flower street in My Thanh hometown

The reason this road is referred to as the "Happy Road" is because the ten o'clock flower carpet covering the 300m long dyke was cultivated and cared for year after year by an old farmer and his wife. This is also the joy of his and his wife's twilight years. The house at the end of the road is their "unchangedly luxurious" home.

Although he and his wife are old, their generous souls and romantic hearts are still "young". They love beauty to the utmost, just like the spirit: Living close to nature, happily and freely is a fairy.

From the Provincial Martyrs Cemetery, I followed the roundabout and turned toward Tan Tru district. Arrive at Lac Tan intersection, ask for directions to My Thanh hometown and Nhum bridge. The people here are simple, kind, smiling and give dedicated guidance. The road is small and deep, but in return, along both sides are vast rice fields.

Unique road through Melaleuca forest in Tan Lap Floating Village

Although appearing in Hoang Thuy Linh's MV Floating Water Cake, few people seem to know about Tan Lap Floating Village Ecotourism Area. But that is also why this place still retains its wild appearance with the characteristics of the Melaleuca forest ecosystem.

From Tan An City, turn onto Highway 62, heading to Moc Hoa district, I drove about an hour to reach the welcome gate of the tourist area. After parking the car and buying tickets at the reception house, the group was taken to the forest by taxi.

From afar one can see the towering watchtower. Standing there, you can have a panoramic view of the forest.

When we set foot on shore, we were immediately stunned by the 5km long asphalt road leading deep into the Melaleuca forest. It is quite a winding road and seems to evoke something mysterious. If you go in a large group on the weekend, you can bring snacks and drinks to experience a picnic in the forest.
