Admire the beauty of Tuyen Quang hydroelectric lake

I was lucky to come to Tuyen Quang 3 times, every time I came to this land, the hospitality, enthusiasm, and thoughtfulness were always fully and affectionately expressed by my colleagues at Tuyen Quang Newspaper. I was also quite lucky to visit and travel on Tuyen Quang Hydroelectric Lake twice. Indeed, every time I came to this place, it was never boring, the river and mountain scenery really attracted me because of its unique features that few places have.

Tuyen Quang Hydroelectric Lake is located in Na Hang and Lam Binh districts. It is about 100 km from the city center, so traveling to this tourist destination is very convenient and not too difficult. Therefore, when groups of tourists come to Tuyen Quang, Na Hang tourist area and hydroelectric lake are always the first choice.

The green of the forest and the cool water from the lake give guests a feeling of relaxation.

Leading our group that day were 4 colleagues from Tuyen Quang newspaper, although some of them had just led groups from other newspapers here yesterday. That thoughtfulness and enthusiasm was shown through arranging the schedule for the trip, inviting tour guides to explain more about these places so that the Binh Thuan group could have more information.

Tour guide and guests in Tay costumes

Our group of tourists also got to wear Tay ethnic costumes and listen to the tour guide, who is the Secretary of the Tay ethnic Youth Union, give a general introduction to the main features of this place. The interesting thing here is that the Youth Union has established a model for youth tourism, all stages from guiding, explaining, food and beverage services, resting, etc. are carried out by young people.

Nature has bestowed this place with beautiful scenery.

Na Hang's terrain is quite rugged, with many limestone mountains, concentrated in the south and north, gradually decreasing from north to south; it is very fragmented, many areas are almost isolated, the connection between residential areas and socio-economic points is extremely limited. Located on the Gam River arc, Na Hang has many large mountain ranges. Earthen and rocky mountains intermingle, forming many large and small valleys.

The district has many mountain peaks over 1,000 m high, mainly concentrated in the communes of Khau Tinh, Sinh Long, Con Lon, Da Vi, Son Phu, Hong Thai. These are also places with rugged terrain, strongly divided, extremely difficult traffic, forest coverage is still quite large, it is also the area richest in resources of the district. Na Hang forest has many types of wood, medicinal herbs and rare and precious animals - this is the basic economic strength of the district. Located in the upper reaches of the Gam River, the forest plays a great role in protecting water resources, limiting the effects of floods on the downstream areas.

The lake water is clear and cool.

This place has a total area of 15,000 hectares, so when you come to Na Hang for tourism, you will have a large space to explore and rest, relax. Of which, up to 8,000 hectares is the water surface area. That is why when you come to Na Hang tourist area, you will feel very relaxed. Because the scenery here is always full of eye-catching green and always gives you a fresh, cool atmosphere to rest.

Currently, the road leading to this tourist area has been expanded so tourists will not have to spend too much time traveling here. On average, it will take about 2 hours for you to visit this land. This place has a wild and mysterious beauty so it will definitely be the most ideal destination for your trip to Na Hang - Tuyen Quang.

Sunset on the lake looks poetic

Many people who travel to Na Hang have the same feeling that they should travel here in the summer. Because summer is when the natural scenery here is beautiful and it is also the time of the flood season. And autumn, in our opinion, is also very beautiful here, a source of inspiration for photographers to hunt for highly artistic photos.

When mentioning famous tourist destinations of Tuyen Quang, you cannot miss the hydroelectric lake located near Na Hang Lake. This place is not too far from the city center so it is very easy to travel. When you come here to sightsee, you will admire how beautiful and peaceful the natural picture is here. The tour guide will introduce you to Vai Pha stake - in Tay language, "the stake to tie the buffalo to heaven" associated with the legend of Tai Ngao that Na Hang people all know, about the rocky mountains, the primeval forest...

Enjoying a trip on the hydroelectric lake, you can visit Khuoi Nhi waterfall to have your feet massaged by fish (fish nibble on your feet), an extremely enjoyable and quite strange feeling. When coming here, visitors will be able to enjoy bathing and playing in the poetic and peaceful streams. The feeling of being immersed in the vast natural land and sky will make you feel very interesting. It seems that the soul also becomes more open, relaxed and comfortable.

On the boat, guests can enjoy the beautiful scenery around Na Hang and the hydroelectric lake.

Just one day floating on the hydroelectric lake, admiring the majestic scenery, enjoying rustic dishes, wild vegetables, lake fish, stream fish, pickled cabbage, pork, lake shrimp, corn wine with yeast leaves of the Tay ethnic people, you will surely feel leisurely, refreshed and ecstatic.
