The image of a sea of pure white clouds flowing over the top of Ba Den mountain on April 9 (the 1st day of the third lunar month) has attracted many people's attention in the past 2 days. The photo set attracted tens of thousands of interactions on social networks.
It is known that at around 6:00 a.m. on April 9, the sky in Tay Ninh was clear, the top of Ba Den mountain looked from afar as if it were wearing a giant hat of white clouds, both magical and poetic.
These images were recorded by journalist and travel blogger Nguyen Minh Tu (HCMC) on April 8-9. "I have been to Ba Den Mountain many times and love it here very much. Ba Den Mountain is not only a sacred peak of the Southeast region but also an attractive destination for tourists because of its fresh, cool air. Many festivals imbued with national identity.
Although the sea of clouds often covers the top of the mountain, not all photography enthusiasts are lucky enough to catch the moment when the clouds overflow like a flowing stream. I have also hunted clouds here many times but failed," Mr. Tu shared.
Recently, when he read about the cloudy season appearing on Ba Den Mountain, Mr. Tu spent 3 days to admire and take photos. "The moment the clouds surrounded the Tay Bo Da Son Buddha statue and the sandstone Maitreya Buddha statue happened very quickly. I had to capture this scene in a short moment," Mr. Tu said.
Less than 100km from Ho Chi Minh City, Ba Den Mountain is considered the perfect cooling destination during the hot season, when the temperature on the mountain top is always 8-10 degrees lower than the city. Early April is also the ideal time to admire the sea of clouds here.

"The moment I launched the flycam through the thick fog, I saw the Tay Bo Da Son Buddha appear like in the middle of white clouds, feeling like a fairyland," Mr. Minh Tu recalled.

Interesting cloud shapes like fire rainbows, phoenix shapes... at Ba Den Mountain. This year the sea of clouds appears earlier and more often.
"The photos will be most beautiful when visitors come on a bright dawn day, with dew and clouds pouring in but not too high. In April, the weather in Tay Ninh is hot and muggy, but every morning there are dew and clouds on the top of the mountain. very beautiful, the easiest to hunt is around 6am to 9am. If you enter May - the beginning of the rainy season, there is a chance that the clouds on the mountain will be dense, covering everything so it will be very difficult to take photos," Mr. Tu shared his experience. .
Many indigenous people and tourists take advantage of this time to monitor the weather from the previous afternoon, and arrive at the foot of Ba Den mountain early the next morning.
