View of Ho Quoc pagoda. Listening to teacher Thich Truc Thong Kien, the abbot of the pagoda, everything was new and clear. Ho Quoc Pagoda is located in the Truc Lam Zen monastery system, which is both a place for Buddhist work, and meets the spiritual needs of the people and tourists visiting to worship. More meaningful in the middle of the wind, the pagoda displays majesty as to maintain the land position, to protect the Fatherland’s position forever. It turned out that behind the curved roofs of the pagoda, the bells rang concealed many sacred things. Through the towering three judges, I entered the ceremony courtyard. The warm sacred feelings seemed more pronounced. In the middle of the square, the jade Buddha statue placed under the bodhi tree is an image of the Buddha’s reincarnation of being the fruit of the fruit to make vows. Behind the jade Buddha, the four dragons touched the stone leading the way over 70 green stone steps. It is a dragon image of the Ly-Tran dynasty bearing the Vietnamese national spirit. Seeing the architecture here makes it easy to think of the temple citadels of the imperial land thousands of years ago. On the top of the tower, the grand hall of mighty palace is located in deep silence, on both the left and right sides are the empty bell floors. Standing on a windy height, the most impressive thing is still the bell. The temple bell early and late night only points a few moments, while the wind chimes ring happily around the clock. The sea breeze rushed past the thousands of trees and leaves, crept into the sanctuary to shake the wind chimes. Just like that, the music played together, sometimes the sound resounded, sometimes tinkled loudly. Just that much will help calm the soul, forget about the dust and dust. Bringing the group to visit Ho Quoc pagoda, driver Nguyen Huu Ngoc volunteered to be an enthusiastic guide who spoke clearly about the monastery with an expression of joy. He said that in order to have this 110-hectare spiritual population, workers have to work hard for more than a year to complete. All skilled craftsmen in the provinces of Bac Ninh and Hai Duong come here to build walls, work as carpenters, to build up the second largest pagoda in the Mekong Delta. If you have come to Phu Quoc but have not yet visited Ho Quoc pagoda, something very sacred seems to be lacking. So, despite the tight travel schedule, Mr. Ngoc enthusiastically carried the couple to the pagoda ceremony. Standing in front of the main hall, I looked away, the sky and sea seemed to blend together in the deep blue. On the background of that picture, only the boats stretching out and stretching are moving. The people here still tell each other that, when they go to sea, their eyes turn to Ho Quoc pagoda as if they are strengthened and more confident in their motherland to overcome all dangerous storms. The temple is like a lighthouse standing in the middle of a beautiful pearl island leading fishermen back in good luck. The afternoon gradually let go, the waves still rumble, the wind chimes are like the words of thousands of years of heaven and earth, the sea of ​​the homeland …

April and lilies season is still blossoming red horizon of memories. The smell of memories is still fragrant every day with the season of lilies blooming in front of the home garden, red flowers of desires and love! The brilliant flowers of April are closely related to my childhood, in a place far upstream of the Red River – My childhood hometown – where a high mountain and white clouds fly to the border of Lao Cai!

In those days, I was naive when my hair was tied up in ponytails! My countryside in Lao Cai at that time did not have white lilies like now. Around the house we lived in were many beautiful flowers planted by my parents who loved them passionately. There are many fragrant flowers such as rose flower, chrysanthemum, fairy hair, jasmine, lily … planted in front of the garden! Spring is always beautiful, featured plum blossoms blooming white!

A simple thatched house made by my father on the hillside of a young man gave him. The house is located on the back of a grassy hill with four seasons of clouds and mountains that are very beautiful. Now I still remember that lovely cottage with its simple windows painted blue. Below the foothills of my house are green rice fields! I often hang out as friends with flowers and gardens more than going out in the mountains. The house is on the back of the hill so it is quite sunny and windy and the wild flowers are blooming, the flowers offer their fragrance and bloom happily throughout the four seasons!

Particularly, the velvet lilies were planted in large clusters by my father, both in the front and the back of the house. Every time that red lilies bloom in your garden, it’s like a season’s privilege. Because flowers bloom for a long time, when I was a child I did not pay any attention to what month they bloom, only later did I grow up that flowers bloom in late spring, the right season for me! Children are inherently carefree and innocent like flowers!

The velvet trumpet is crimson and vibrant in color, and the wings are as smooth as velvet! Maybe because it is rare and its beauty shines right from the inside, it is called velvet lilies? This flower originated from Japan and is often grown to decorate in cold country gardens or resorts such as Sapa, Tam Dao or Dalat.

From the day I lived in the capital, I rarely saw them, while the white lilies – also known as Hue Tay, which are from the same family of lilies, in Hanoi there are too many! The white trumpet is also known as Bach Hop or Tay Hue flower! Hearing the name also seems to be Western, but the soul is still Vietnamese! The famous painting “The Girl by the Flower” by painter To Ngoc Van has made the white trumpet even more popular!

Although the red trumpet is less known, its beauty and scent are just as brilliant! Velvet lilies bloom red radiantly the aspirations of childhood and each cluster is made into many branches, in bunches of flowers and buds on each branch. The velvet trumpet has the beauty of reunion, elegance and reunion with red velvet petals and the interesting thing is that right in the heart of each flower is the highlight of the pure white star and glittering yellow color in the sun. ! The leaves are big and long, also of the kind of grass so it is soft, green and elongated, and big. The leaves are many, growing around the flowers, looking very beautiful and especially the match, because looking at the leaves is always like dancing dancers!

This flower brings joy to the owner and every family when it blooms! This flower represents joy, reunion and happiness, for peace and reunion, for the crowding and descendants of families and clans! Red velvet horns will definitely bring elegance and luck to its owner and when brought into the house, they make your living room glow.

April! Lilies blooming season red! The season of love and love! Sitting hard all day in heaps of colors and math, just enough time for me to finish painting the red velvet lilies – as a sincere gratitude to my mother and I paint another picture of white lilies – species The fragrant Hue Tay, dedicated to her birthday!

The April flowers are blooming in my painting and the April flowers are also joining the sky to offer incense and flourish! The fragrant flowers are still blooming in season!

April about! Brilliantly remember the old red trumpet seasons! Is it because of me that flowers bloom forever?
