Bac Lieu ancient longan garden attracts many tourists to visit and experience. Photo: HUU THI Giong Nhan belongs to Hiep Thanh and Vinh Trach Dong communes of Bac Lieu city, about 10km from the city center, towards the sea. This is a coastal land, high sand dunes, suitable for growing longan, so hundreds of years ago, longan gardens were immense and luxuriant in this country. The name Giong Label also comes from there. So of course, Giong Nhan’s specialty is longan, but not ordinary but ancient longan. Dozens of ancient longan gardens running along Giong Nhan make visitors sink into the beautiful natural scenery. There are roots of longan with more than 200 years of age that still regularly bear fruit in the homeland of Da Co Hoai Lang. The original large label with the hand of an adult, imprinted with the traces of time with rough shapes, winding wood grain, one after another will help visitors get beautiful photos. Bac Lieu longan is sweet, crispy, succulent, very fragrant. In order to exploit this indigenous cultural resource, the People’s Committee of Bac Lieu province has developed and implemented a project to preserve ancient longan associated with tourism development, creating good changes. Also on Giong Nhan route, visitors will admire the “mango” nearly 340 years old, still lush, this season is bearing fruit. The mango tree is over 15m high, the canopy is over 300m2, the trunk is up to 6 people’s arms. This mango tree was recognized by the Vietnam Association for the Protection of Nature and Environment as a “Vietnam Heritage Tree” in 2015 and has been declared over 334 years old. The elderly in this country also do not know when this mango tree has been planted, by whom, only know that it is pride and sharing with tourists near and far. Around the ancient mango tree, there are many stories about the time of reclaiming and establishing a hamlet, expanding this Giong Nhan land, making visitors even more fascinated. A few hundred meters from the ancient mango tree is Xiem Can pagoda, which has been ranked as a national relic. This is a hundred-year-old Khmer ancient temple with magnificent and sacred architecture. This land has the cultural interference of the community of 3 ethnic groups: Kinh, Hoa, and Khmer, so the name Xiem Can pagoda in Chinese means “bordering the water”, because of its location near the sea. This temple is always the priority destination of tourists when returning to Bac Lieu. The majestic and attractive architecture blends with the cool, shady green space. Just off the main road, turning to the entrance to the temple, visitors have walked through the shaded trees, with the gate, the architectural images of the Khmer pagoda keep leading the way to the peaceful place. A new but famous attraction near and far on Giong Nhan street is the wind power field of Bac Lieu, not far from Xiem Can pagoda. In the midst of the immense sea and sky, the wind turbines rotate like giant pinwheels curled in the air, above are white clouds, below are blue seas. Visitors just need to stand on the bridge, tilt at any angle, pose for a beautiful picture, as if standing in Europe. “Virtual living paradise” is how young people often call this wind power field. If you go out to your heart’s content, you should sit back and enjoy Giong Label’s specialty, which is banh xeo. Giong Label pancake is so famous that everyone must eat it once. There are also people who say to themselves that “Banh xeo is not like that anywhere” and they have found themselves “wrong too wrong” when once enjoying Giong Nhan specialties. The skin of Giong Label pancakes is much thicker than regular pancakes but is quite crispy. Meat and shrimp are spread evenly on the skin of the cake, not focusing on the filling like the usual way. The filling of Giong Nhan pancakes is also made with fresh seafood from the sea of ​​Bac Lieu, and added with vegetables from the field, garden vegetables, etc., mixed with dipping sauce with a characteristic concoction flavor. All rolled up, dipped in dipping sauce and leisurely enjoyed. Crispy, greasy, sweet skin of seafood, a little sour – acrid – bitter – strong of vegetables and salty – sweet – sour – spicy of dipping sauce, all make up a memorable smell. Without going far and not moving too much, visitors had a memorable day when going out to Giong Nhan. Another option that many people experience is to take advantage of the day to visit two more places just over ten minutes from Giong Nhan by car, which is to visit Mother Nam Hai (Quan Am Phat Dai) and Don Ca Tai Tu Memorial Area and musician Cao Van Lau.
