Chu Yang Sin National Park

Chu Yang Sin National Park

With a terrain divided into many slopes, Chu Yang Sin National Park is a tourist destination for those who love adventure travel. This place is considered a mysterious land with many interesting experiences, bringing you a memorable trip during your travel journey in Buon Ma Thuot city. The coordinates of Chu Yang Sin National Park are located in Buon Ma Thuot city, in Lak and Krong Bong districts of Dak Lak province. From here, it takes about 60km to go east to Buon Ma Thuot city. Currently, Chu Yang Sin is an ecotourism destination loved by many people because of its concentration of many large and small rivers and streams, with many impressive landscapes. Chu Yang Sin National Park is known for its extremely diverse ecosystem, including 9 different forest types, spanning more than 589 km2 in the communes of Cu Dram, Yang Mao, Hoa Phong, Hoa Son, Hoa Le, Khue. Ngoc Dien. Therefore, there are 487 animal species (203 bird species and 46 mammal species) along with thousands of different plant species. When visiting Chu Yang Sin National Park, walking along the Park, you will see this diverse ecosystem. Listening to the rustling of leaves, the sound of gurgling streams or the sound of birds singing happily, is there anything better? Experiencing camping in the forest is something you should try here. Bringing food and a tent, staying overnight with friends will be one of the memorable experiences that many tourists love on their journey to visit and explore Chu Yang Sin. However, you should be careful not to arbitrarily light a campfire in the forest to ensure your safety. Exploring Chu Yang Sin National Park, you can also go to Krong Kmar waterfall located deep inside the mountains and forests and experience waterfall bathing. Although the waterfall is not too big or high, the water is extremely clear and the rock is flat, so it is ideal for you to immerse yourself in the cool water, dispelling fatigue after walking a long distance. . Once you come to Chu Yang Sin, you cannot help but take the time to conquer the peak of Chu Yang Sin mountain. It can be said that this is also the most favorite experience for many backpackers when coming to this National Park. Chu Yang Sin Mountain has an altitude of up to 2500 meters above sea level and is considered the roof of the Central Highlands. Therefore, this mountain has become an attractive target for tourists coming to Chu Yang Sin National Park. To climb to the top of the mountain, you need to be in good health because the path is relatively difficult. However, in return for this difficulty, you will find your efforts are extremely well compensated because from the top of the mountain, you can zoom out and admire the panoramic view of the wild and majestic mountains and forests. If you are tired of the sight of skyscrapers or busy streets with traffic, the scenery here will "compensate" for your spirit a lot. Because Chu Yang Sin National Park is still very wild and has not been exploited for much tourism, you will not be able to find food shops in front of the National Park gate or along the trail into the forest. Therefore, my experience is to prepare drinking water and some food in advance to bring with you. However, it's best to only bring enough to eat. Carrying too much food will make you easily tired from carrying too much, thereby affecting your experience while traveling and exploring Chu Yang Sin National Park. In addition, you should also pay attention to cleaning and taking trash out to throw away, do not leave trash in Chu Yang Sin to protect the natural environment here.

Banished House in Buon Ma Thuot

Banished House in Buon Ma Thuot

Buon Ma Thuot exile house is located at 17 Tan Thuat street - Tu An ward - Buon Ma Thuot city. Built in the years 1930 - 1931, the House of Exile is a place to detain and exile political prisoners mainly in the Central provinces. The name Buon Ma Thuot Exile House, on the one hand, originates from the name given by the French colonialists: Pénitencier de Ban Me Thuot, and on the other hand, is due to the nature and type of prisons of the French colonialists. The exile house was built with a total area of ​​nearly 2 hectares, with 4 surrounding walls 4m high, 40cm thick, all 4 corners have guard posts and guards 24/24 hours. Inside there are 6 rows of collective prisons, rows of cells... this is the place to imprison, exile and kill revolutionary soldiers with an extremely harsh and brutal regime. In Central Vietnam, the Dak Lak Plateau at that time was surrounded by mountains and forests on all four sides, dense and full of wild animals. The climate is harsh, with erratic hot and cold conditions, high humidity, and many dangerous pathogens such as malaria, dysentery, and cholera easily arise. With a wide plateau terrain, interspersed with many dense forests surrounded by many high mountains, on one side is the border with foreign countries, on the other hand divided by many valleys, rivers and streams, with few roads, bridges and culverts. Around 1900, a prison was built by the French to house political prisoners. Here, the land is desolate, the climate is toxic, few people visit, the difference in language and culture with the Ede ethnic people, forming prisons makes it difficult for prisoners to escape. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, the anti-colonial movement in Indochina increased as the indigenous people absorbed Western revolutionary ideas. The number of political prisoners is increasing. The government continuously had to expand and build new prisons and exile houses to serve as places of exile and detention for indigenous national revolutionaries who were sentenced to heavy sentences in the territory of Indochina. Initially, the Ambassador of Central Vietnam chose to build the exile house in Lak district, about 50 km from Buon Ma Thuot town. However, the governor of Dak Lak province at that time proposed building a prison right in Buon Ma Thuot town on the basis of expanding the old prison, on the grounds that building a new prison requires a large cost while At that time, France was in an economic crisis in 1929; At the same time, if built in Lak, transporting prisoners would take a long distance and take a lot of time. From those reasons, the Central Ambassador decided to choose Buon Ma Thuot town as the place to build the exile house. The Buon Ma Thuot exile house was set up by the French colonialists during the period 1930 - 1931 to exile and detain patriots, communist party members who were arrested and severely sentenced in the Central provinces, and those who went to Vietnam. leader in the struggles of the Nghe Tinh Soviet movement. A special point different from other prisons and exile houses is that prisoners have to make their own prisons to detain themselves, which is the most prominent way the French colonialists carried out the Buon Ma Thuot exile prison. The exile house is located on a campus of nearly 2 hectares, this location is near the legation, green loincloth barracks, and provincial prison. This is a hill with few large trees, allowing trucks to easily access and transport materials. The design and plan were drafted by the chief engineer and director of public works at Trung Ky. Since 1930, Buon Ma Thuot Prison has detained activists such as: Ho Tung Mau, Phan Dang Luu, Nguyen Chi Thanh, To Huu, Hong Chuong, Bui San, Tran Van Quang, Ngo Duc Do, Ngo Xuan Ham. .. The historical relic of Buon Ma Thuot's exile house is also known as the punishment house. This place is like many prisons across Vietnam, not only is it the clearest proof of the cruel crimes of the Empire - Colonization, but this place is also considered a great school that has created great loyal revolutionary soldier for the country. The Buon Ma Thuot House of Exile is a historical site in Dak Lak, with the structure being a relic of the old prison system (exile house) from the French colonial period. On July 10, 1980, the House of Exile was recognized by the Ministry of Culture and Information as a national monument. Source: Dak Lak province electronic information portal

Khai Doan is the last Sac Tu pagoda of the Nguyen Dynasty, the first pagoda of the Buddhist organization during the Revival of Vietnamese Buddhism in the Central Highlands, the land of the Imperial Dynasty during Bao Dai's reign. The pagoda was directly managed by Doan Huy Hoang, Queen Mother Hoang Thi Cuc (King Khai Dinh's concubine), King Bao Dai's mother, and Queen Nam Phuong, along with a number of dedicated Buddhists, to build for the Central Vietnamese Sangha. . Venerable Thich Tri Thu appointed his eldest son, monk Thich Duc Thieu, to direct the construction of the pagoda on a land area of ​​nearly 7 acres, 8 acres, 28 square meters and to be the first abbot. In 1951, the pagoda built the rear and lecture hall, and in 1953, the main hall was built. The name Khai Doan is a combination of two words Khai Dinh - Doan Huy. On June 29, 1953 (May 19, Year of the Snake), Mr. Narada Thera (Ceylon) requested the Buddha's relics to present to Tu Cung in Buon Ma Thuot. Attending the ceremony were Venerable Thich Tinh Khiet, President of the Vietnam General Buddhist Association, along with monks, Buddhists and a large number of people worshiping the Buddha's relics and praying for peace in the country.

In 1953, on the occasion of the Hau To's peaceful citadel ceremony, the pagoda was ordained as "Sac tu Khai Doan" - during the reign of King Bao Dai. In 1953, although the Nguyen Dynasty had ended, Bao Dai was still the Head of State of the State of Vietnam (the South) and with the institution of the Imperial Dynasty in the Central Highlands (Central Highlands), Bao Dai is still the Emperor of this land. And this is the last decree of a Vietnamese king bestowed on a Buddhist temple. Over more than half a century, the pagoda has succeeded seven generations of abbots. The current abbot is Venerable Thich Chau Quang, current Head of the Buddhist Administration Committee of Dak Lak province. In 1986, the Provincial Buddhist Executive Committee was established.
