We know that the Wei River, which flows through dozens of cities and counties in Gansu and Shaanxi provinces, is the largest tributary of the Yellow River. It has a total length of 818 kilometers and accommodates approximately 270 large and small rivers. It is one of the oldest rivers in China. This is the birthplace of the ancestors Fuxi and Nuwa in ancient Chinese legends. It is the origin of the first ancestors of the Chinese people, Xuanyuan Huangdi and Shennongyan. Legendary stories such as Emperor Wen’s “Baling Tuomeng” are one of the oldest habitats of the Chinese nation and one of the earliest birthplaces of Chinese culture. But who would have thought that the source of such a mighty Weihe River, which is dwindling thousands of miles day by day, is the three-eyed clear spring hidden in the depths of a mountain named after “birds and mice”? This mountain is the uncommon mountain Niaoshushan, which is known by the Scriptures. This eye spring is the “Pinzi Spring” in the deep forest on the south side of the mountain. Niaoshu Mountain, recorded in the “Shanhai Jing·Xishan Jing” as “Birds and Rats with the Same Cavern Mountain”, is located about 10 kilometers southwest of Weiyuan County, Gansu, and belongs to the remnant of Kunlun Mountains. It is the watershed of the two rivers of Tao and Wei. The birthplace of the Weihe River. There are many historical records about this mountain. For example, in Shangshu·Yugong, it was mentioned that Yu had “guided the Wei from the same cave and the mountain with birds and mice” during the water management. The record of “Niaoshushan in the south of Weiguting in Shouyang County, Longxi Province” and so on. The name is called because there are a lot of birds and rodents in the mountains, and the geographical environment is particularly special. There are no trees for birds to make nests to lay eggs. In order to ensure the safety of their eggs, the birds decided to settle in mice. In the cave, over time, the bird and the mouse are mutually beneficial and coexist in harmony, and there is a scene of “birds and mice in the same cave” that people have seen. In fact, there are many legends about the same cave with birds and mice. It is said that the bird and the mouse were changed by a loving couple. The wife is hardworking and kind, but the husband is lazy. Although the days are poor, he is respectful and respectful. The husband often admires the birds in the sky, being leisurely and free from labor. One day his wife accidentally rescued the Dragon King of the Weihe River by the river. In order to repay her, the Dragon King asked her to go to the opposite mountain when the cock cried the next day. When the appointment was made, the husband was lazy, and when his wife climbed to the top of the mountain. He just arrived at the mountainside, so the Weihe Dragon King gave his wife a pair of wings that could fly into the sky, but the husband only got a pair of sharp teeth for eating wild fruits. The wife can’t forget the husband she loved, so she went to live with her husband in the cave. This is the beautiful legend of the same cave with birds and mice. Since we talked about Niaoshu Mountain, of course we have to talk about the “Pinzi Spring” at the source of the Weihe River hidden deep in the mountain forest. As the name suggests, Pinzi Spring is composed of clear springs with three eyes in the structure of “Ping”, and each spring has very ancient legends. The “Legend Whip Spring” was named after the word “Legend Whip” was written here by the king of Tang. It is said that Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, passed by here during his western expedition. When drinking water in the spring, he accidentally dropped his whip and disappeared. So he wrote down the word “Legend Whip” by the spring as a mark. “Yu Yangquan” was named because it was called a divine spring by Yu. The Temple of King Yu by the spring was built to commemorate Yu’s governance of the Wei River. When Dayu and the God of Water worked together in a decisive battle here, his soldiers drank the spring when they were tired of people and horses. They felt refreshed and morale. They defeated Gonggong in one fell swoop and won the victory in water control. “Tuyunquan” is said to be the “Dragon Pond” of the Dragon King of the Weihe River. According to legend, someone once saw the Dragon King here spit out smoke and clouds, spreading clouds and rain, and it is said that it rains whenever there is bubbling in the spring. Of course, in addition to the profound historical and cultural background, and the rich cultural landscape, the natural scenery of Niaoshu Mountain is also extremely beautiful. Here, the green hills are like Daisies, the clear waters are like practice, the forests are dense, and the ecology is excellent. If you have the opportunity to go to Gansu, you must take a look.

Tam Coc is located in the famous Trang An landscape complex. With a system of caves, limestone mountains, beautiful wet rice fields, this place is likened to Ha Long Bay on land and is an eco-tourism area in the true sense of the northern village. (Photo: Didauvui) The light sunshine stretching over the golden fields makes the whole Tam Coc mountain area brighten up with a poetic look, making people not only “full of eyes” but also feel satisfied with all the senses. Here, the rice fields will ripen in late May and early June in a two-week period. That is the time when visitors will be able to see the most “beautiful yellow” of the year in the most beautiful rice fields in Vietnam. (Photo: Didauvui) Tam Coc means three caves: Ca cave, Hai cave and Ba cave. All three caves are formed by the flow of rivers because the rocks in this area are limestone mountains. Ca Cave is 127m long, through a large mountain, and the mouth of the cave is over 20m wide. In the cave, the climate is cool and humid and there are many stalactites hanging down with many shapes. Bich Dong means “green cave” located 2 km from Tam Coc wharf. This is one of the landscapes in the group that the ancients called “Nam Thien De Nhi Dong”, the second most beautiful cave in the South. (Photo: @the1swhowander) From Van Lam wharf, travelers can travel the scenery around Tam Coc, watching the small houses along the river and caves. The peaceful Ngo Dong River meanders between golden rice fields on one side and wild and majestic rocky mountains on the other, creating a peaceful and romantic picture of the countryside. (Photo: Khong Giang) (Photo: Khong Giang) Looking at eye level, the rice field is like an endless stretch of silk, every time the boat glides back and forth, it flutters with each wave. But perhaps to admire all the beauty of this golden season, standing on high is the most ideal choice. From the top of the mountain, the beauty of the ripe rice fields seems to be multiplied many times. Rice bends along the Ngo Dong river with soft bends, and in the distance are undulating mountain ranges. In the middle of the stream are boats carrying gold particles… It’s an impressive moment that anyone who has ever been to can never forget. (Photo: Thai Phong Gallery) The scenery here in the ripe rice crop brings a feeling of light relaxation, you will feel that you can temporarily let go of the chaos of life and breathe in the fresh air. On an early summer morning with clear, cool weather, what could be better than flicking the oars to listen in the deepest ear to the silence of space, the sound of waves crashing on the side of the boat, the singing of birds and the sound of birdsong? Take the vision to follow the stream of water reflecting the vast green mountains and clouds, immersing yourself in the rustic and pristine nature.

Ninh Binh has great potential to develop high-class resort tourism products. Located in Thuong Sung village, Ky Phu commune, Nho Quan district, 8km south of Nho Quan town, Cuc Phuong hot mineral is one of the best hot mineral sources in Ninh Binh today. The water source was discovered in the 60s of the last century during the investigation and construction planning of Cuc Phuong National Park. Mineral water source emerges from cracks and caves, karst in limestone on the northeastern slope of a large mountain with a flow rate of 8 l/s. Mineral water was also discovered in some boreholes near the open circuit.
Since 1970, many agencies such as Group 54, Group 47, General Department of Geology, Vietnam Academy of Science, Vietnam General Confederation of Labor, Hanoi Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology… have come here. conduct research surveys. According to experts, with a stable temperature of 35oC, transparent, colorless, odorless and tasteless water, Cuc Phuong mineral water gives bathers a feeling of gentle relaxation and many healing effects. The quality of mineral resources here is very suitable for developing the type of resort tourism, health care – wellness holiday – one of the strategic directions that Apec Group is focusing on investing in.

The acquisition of Cuc Phuong Hot Mineral Joint Stock Company – an enterprise licensed to exclusively exploit mineral water here with a continuous flow of 140m3/day will be the first step for a chain of 5-star resort and resort complex projects. international entertainment and wellness holiday trend in Ninh Binh province. Apec Group will invest 1 billion USD to develop a chain of 5-star resort and international entertainment complex projects in Ninh Binh. In addition, due to being exploited from a high-quality underground mineral water mine right in the buffer zone of Cuc Phuong National Park, the natural environment is unspoiled, completely separate from the densely populated areas and industrial zones, and natural mineral water. Cuc Phuong also has a natural, pure taste, has a light mineral content with many good health effects… The quality of Cuc Phuong natural mineral water has been certified by the competent authorities and meets the standards. Europe CODEX STAN 108 – 1981, REV.2 – 2008 and ISO 9001: 2008, in line with the European Community Directive EEC 80/777/CEE. In addition to exploiting mineral resources to develop resort real estate, Apec will also develop this drinking water source into its own brand of drinking water and put it into use in the group’s projects.

Mr. Nguyen Quang Huy – Deputy General Director of Apec Group said, “Ninh Binh possesses extremely rich tourism resources and is a favorite destination of many domestic and international tourists. Some famous scenic spots here can be mentioned as Trang An tourist area, Tam Coc – Bich Dong, Bai Dinh pagoda… However, Ninh Binh lacks worthy entertainment, entertainment and relaxation spots to hold tourists. Guests stay longer and spend more. Therefore, we hope to contribute a part of our efforts to the development and change the face of tourism in the province with a series of 5-star resort complex projects and international amusement parks in Hanoi. here”.
It is expected that Apec Group will invest 1 billion USD in Ninh Binh to contribute to turning the ancient capital land into an international resort tourism center in the period 2021-2025 with the goal of increasing the total number of tourists to Ninh Binh. doubled, reaching 15 million visitors/year, and at the same time doubled the average length of stay of tourists compared to the present.

In addition to the name Cano Cristales given by explorer Andres Hurtado in 1980, the river is also known by tourists with many different names such as “rainbow river” or “river of five colors”. (Photo: Unsual Palace) (Photo: RCN Radio) At the time of the change of seasons of the year, this river will bring different colors such as red, yellow, green, blue, black, creating a magical and rare scene in the land of South America. These colors stand out against the yellow background of the sand in the riverbed, the green of the moss, the water and the dark patches from the rock holes that have given this river its beautiful name. This unique color is produced during the reproduction of aquatic plants in the river, scientifically known as Macarenia Clavigera, a species of river algae Podostemaceae. (Photo: El Tiempo) (Photo: Wiki Travel) This aquatic plant is the reason why the river is sometimes green, sometimes it turns bright red, orange yellow and even dark brown. The outstanding colors have created an interesting picture of nature that makes those who come here and witness this scene first-hand, surprised and admire the magic of nature. Locals say the best time to observe aquatic species is after a storm, when their colors are at their most vibrant. (Photo: Time of India) (Image: Getty Images) The Cano Cristales River is located in a rather remote area and is almost completely isolated from the outside. Therefore, this river still retains its wild and poetic beauty. (Photo: Zen.yandex) (Photo: Traveler) Besides admiring the strange scenery of the river, visitors here are also attracted by the rich flora and fauna. Serrania de la Macarena National Park is home to more than 400 species of birds and many rare animals such as turtles, iguanas and aguilas – birds are the national symbol of Colombia. Every year, this place welcomes millions of visitors. However, the Cano Cristales River only accepts visitors from June to December. From January to May, this area will be closed to let the ecosystem here “rest” and preserve.

Caverns always give people some sense of mystery and adventure. The feeling of going deep underground, shocking at every step, and stunning everywhere is something that you can’t feel when climbing a mountain and visiting a garden. Compared to the south, there seem to be fewer karst caves in the north. If it is more famous, Shandong Yishui Underground Grand Canyon is one of them. The Yishui Underground Grand Canyon is more than 6000 meters long, half of which has been developed as a tourist line. The karst caves have been formed for a long time, about 65 to 230 million years ago. They developed from huge karst fissures and are one of the super large karst caves in my country. First, it is known as “the first hole of underground river rafting in China”, and it is also a national 5A-level tourist attraction. Walking into the cave from the shining world outside, you are instantly surrounded by a cool and refreshing atmosphere. The scene before you becomes mysterious because of the dimness, and with the intervention of the light, it slowly reveals a dreamlike illusion in front of people. The wonderful world is like a palace hidden underground. The stalactites and the canyon landscape in the cave are all natural, with a rough and unrestrained momentum, and each scenic spot has a name that matches the shape. The Kowloon Palace in front of you makes people feel as if they really have come to the East China Sea Dragon Palace. The dragon-shaped stalactites are impressive and lifelike. Walking in the canyon, sometimes the road is flat and spacious, sometimes narrow and cramped, sometimes up, sometimes down. Some stalactites are high above and far away, some are close and within reach. The lights show brilliant colors, red and orange, orange sprinkled with yellow, yellow with blue, blue with green, green with blue, blue Covered with purple, the walls of each square gorge are soaked with color, like an ambiguous color picture. The water flow under the feet is finely broken, and the sound of the water is long and clear, revealing the breath. The stalactites are spilled from above like a waterfall. They are obviously hard and shattered stones, but they have a flowing and elegant texture. The names of the landscape in the cave are full of fantasy and mythology, which cater to the mystery of the cave. The Kowloon Palace, the seals playing in the water, the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum… really can be called the supernatural craftsmanship of nature. The more you walk in, the more you can feel the peculiar appearance of this cave kingdom. Not far away, the lights are dim, the shadows are drenched, and occasionally people’s voices are heard vaguely, very close, and seemingly far away. Gradually, the sound of the water became louder, and the 1000-meter rafting project developed by using the underground river water potential in the canyon. This is a well-deserved Internet celebrity project in the underground canyon. It was certified as the “longest cave rafting in China” by the Shanghai Great World Guinness Records Headquarters. Sitting on the drifting boat, climbing up and down along the uneven terrain, the wind speed is sandwiched by the water speed, and the bottom is ups and downs, which is thrilling and exciting. The boat stumbled and smashed into anything in the narrow river. Suddenly stormy waves, shoals and bad waters made people frightening. Suddenly, the still water was flowing deeply, calming people’s hearts, and having the leeway to calm down and take a look at the scenery on both sides. The stalactites in the cave are of different sizes, weird and strange shapes, and they are full of dreamlike colors. People always like to talk about the spirit of craftsmanship. If you look for it in nature, perhaps the cave is a manifestation of the spirit of craftsmanship in nature. The long years of meticulous carving and constant polishing have formed such a magical and magnificent scene. This kind of skill and determination is far beyond the reach of manpower.

In an era when education is important, many parents will choose to take their children out to play during the holidays, or let their children participate in research activities. Walking into nature and understanding the magic and mystery of nature is undoubtedly an indispensable part of it. In this way, the firefly water cave at the foot of Shimei Mountain, 19 kilometers south of Yishui County, Shandong, is a pretty good choice. . Children living in cities have very few chances to see fireflies. Many people only have a vague understanding of them in books and pictures. The firefly water cave gives children a chance to get close to nature. Of course, there are more than that. There are also scenic spots such as Yingyu Valley and Butterfly Valley. Various insects gather. It is a place where children keep “wow” all the way. The name of Butterfly Waterfall is romantic and vivid. The sound of the butterfly is the same as “stack”. Not only are butterflies fluttering around the waterfall, but the waterfalls stacked one upon another are also magnificent and beautiful. When children see these, they are afraid that they will blurt out Li Bai’s famous phrase “Fly down three thousand feet.” Before I get closer, I have already seen the huge, colorful butterfly shape. Butterfly Valley is the largest butterfly cultural park in northern China. It integrates nature and artificiality. There are as many as 50 world-famous butterflies, such as banded butterflies, dead leaf butterflies and musk butterflies, many of which are not seen in daily life. To the variety. The gorgeous butterfly-shaped exhibition board introduces butterfly species from all over the world. The names are contrasted in Chinese and English, and the vivid image allows children to learn a lot of knowledge that cannot be learned in books without knowing it. What’s more, there are various beautiful butterflies flying and lingering among the flowers. They are either in groups or beautiful alone, perching on the flowers, seeming to be competing with the spring flowers. Butterflies have always been beautiful and romantic symbols and legends in China. The famous Butterfly Butterfly has been passed down for thousands of years and is a symbol of longing for freedom. The most amazing thing is that such a beautiful insect is transformed from a caterpillar, just like an ugly duckling turned into a white swan. In this kind of explanation, even children will understand that working hard will have the meaning of beautiful happenings. Right. The Glowworm Cave is the main attraction of the scenic spot. The cave was formed about 11 million years ago and has a total length of 1,800 meters. In the cave, the lights are brilliant, the water flow is rich, and there are more fireflies living in the caves, dotted and dotted, in the dim cave, flashing like stars in the sky. Walking into the long tunnel, the blue-green lights create a sense of dream of the underwater world. At the end of the tunnel, people give birth to a more mysterious and beautiful world. Children are extremely sensitive to colors and like bright colors. The scale of the cave is huge, and the various lights play colorful colors, which mobilize their imagination all the time. The various karst landscapes are in different poses, and the caves are cool and comfortable. Those stalactites and fireflies of various shapes create a beautiful, deep and unpredictable underground world, which attracts the curiosity of children. Visitors want to take a boat here to admire the fireflies, because the cave is very dark, it is difficult to photograph the fireflies, so it also adds a mystery. “A summer without fireflies is an incomplete summer.” The fireflies pin the nostalgia of urbanites for innocence and the yearning for the countryside. This holiday, you might as well take your children to Yishui Firefly Cave to spend an unforgettable time. (You are welcome to like and leave a message in the comment area.

After school or in his spare time, Canto often performs burrowing by hand. Later, Canto’s friend Andreu brought along a pneumatic drill to speed up the process – the two eventually created a 3m deep cave. Andres Canto stands outside his cave. Six years later, Canto tried to create his own cave with separate living room and bedroom with heating, wifi, music system. Now 20 years old, Canto really doesn’t understand what motivated him so much to build this cave but he’s happy with the result. Canto continued: “It’s great, I have everything I need. Working here can be uncomfortable because it’s humid and there’s not much air around, but I found my own motivation to keep going. keep perfecting it every day”. Cantor’s burrow sometimes suffers from flooding and is often visited by insects, spiders, and snails, but this guy usually doesn’t mind. He further explained: “I have always liked building small huts. I live in the countryside and when I find discarded wood, I will build a nice house,” added Cantor. Canto estimates that the project costs no more than €50 (£43) as most of the building materials are much cheaper than he expected. Canto mainly burrows using buckets to bring up the soil, but eventually decided to incorporate other digging techniques such as using a pulley system. Canto also reinforced his cave’s roof using a vaulted entrance and vaulted ceiling with columns, as well as concrete walls to prevent collapse. Image of the cave during the previous construction. Video of Canto’s cave quickly went viral on social media and immediately attracted the attention of local authorities. Canto said: “Since I was the first to do such a thing, when the local officials arrived, there were no specific reports of it. It was not a basement, nor was it a warehouse, it’s just a well-built hut in the ground.” Amazingly, Canto’s parents were also normal with their son’s “retreat” in the ground. Canto even said: “My mother went down to the cave and told me it was smaller than the one in the video”.

The two girls were expected to complete only half a year, but it took 10 months to hand over a special set of models to a customer – a loyal fan of the Harry Potter series in Ho Chi Minh City. Miniature Burrow Farm with hundreds of details In the Harry Potter books, the Burrow is described as the large “twisted, crooked” home of the Weasley family. Not as grand as Hogwarts and not as boisterous as Diagon Alley, but the house is a place that means a lot to fans of the series as it has been described as “the only warm place in Harry Potter’s brutal life in past” – quoted translation. Outside the Hang Soc farm of Thuy Hang, Quynh Nhu. Share with Zing , Hong Thuy said her model of the Grave Farm has a 1:22 scale compared to the size described in the story. The outside structure of the house is made according to the movie, but the interior layout and interior are both created by Thuy and Quynh Nhu. The ideation process for the house took up to 3 months, including many revisions and discussions. “The overall model consists of 1 ground floor and 3 floors. The ground floor has a living room, a kitchen and a working area. The upper 3 floors include 4 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and an attic. In the Harry Potter movies and books, there is not much information about the layout of the rooms in the house, except for the attic. So I had to build the internal structure to match and be consistent with the outside architecture,” said Hong Thuy. Every little detail is meticulously and skillfully done by the two girls. Every detail in the house is meticulously calculated by Hong Thuy and Quynh Nhu. The couple included ruffled chairs, unwashed pans in pots and moss clinging to the tile floor. Even the scratches on the old wall and the dust on the roof are fully shown. Model of the Weasley family’s flying Ford Anglia car. Hong Thuy revealed that there are hundreds of large and small details in the house. Every detail is carefully handcrafted and the materials selected to match. “Depending on the details, we use materials such as wood, fomex, clay, zinc, paper, plastic, etc. Like the outside of the house, we use small pieces of wood to make the wall. The roof is made of bricks and tiles that I made myself,” said Hong Thuy. Every tiny item in the house is made by the two girls. After 10 months, the Grave Farm model was completed and the two girls breathed a sigh of relief. Hong Thuy said that because of perfectionism, there are many details in the finished house that are still added by the two girls to be more beautiful. The girl confided in Zing : “We do everything until we are satisfied. It can be said that the finished model is better than our initial expectations”. Each room is meticulously shaped. Currently, the model of the house of the Weasley family has been sent to the customer. Hong Thuy refused to disclose the selling price, only revealing that the amount was not small. “I would like to keep the price secret, which is quite high. I do not dare to expect many customers who are passionate enough to order a second The Burrow miniature. Because in Vietnam, this hobby is not popular. My customers have very positive feedback about this model,” said Hong Thuy. Work is only for the patient Besides the model of Hang Soc farm, Hong Thuy and Quynh Nhu have made many other miniature models. This work of the two girls comes from a passion for stop motion animated films. “Currently, this can be considered as my main job. In addition to this model, Quynh Nhu and I also make other products with many different proportions and themes,” said Hong Thuy. The beautiful house makes Harry Potter fans excited. Making a miniature model is not easy, making it beautiful is even more difficult. Someone said that to become a model maker perhaps requires ingenuity, but Hong Thuy denied. She said that the most important thing is to be patient. “Persistence is the most important quality when it comes to modeling. Many people are good with their hands, but they don’t have the perseverance to make a work from start to finish. The second quality is the ability to estimate. Even with imagination, everything can go wrong. So you have to estimate yourself to be able to make that detail accurately. The third quality is the aesthetic ability in arrangement and color selection. Not just making meticulous details, putting them side by side will be beautiful,” said Hong Thuy. Currently, Hong Thuy and Quynh Nhu’s Hang Soc farm model is still receiving many compliments from the online community. The two girls said they will continue to make miniature models, including scenes from Harry Potter stories.

The western part of Quang Tri province is known as an area that still has many potential tourist destinations, still preserving the wild beauty that few people know. One of them is Ta Puong cave, Ta Puong waterfall system in Huong Viet commune, Huong Hoa district. To reach Ta Puong cave and waterfall, visitors have to go about 60km from Dong Ha city along Highway 9 to Khe Sanh town (Huong Hoa district), from here turn to Ho Chi Minh road about 50km to reach the center of Huong commune. Vietnam. This is also the route through many famous tourist attractions such as: Ta Con airport, Chenh Venh waterfall, Sa Mu pass… with majestic mountain scenery chosen by many backpackers to experience. From the Ho Chi Minh trail, to go to Ta Puong cave and waterfall, visitors will go through Ta Puong Cultural Village with the peaceful stilt houses of the Pa Co and Van Kieu people. The road from Ta Puong Cultural Village to Ta Puong Cave has to go through the forest, wade streams, climb steep slopes… … it takes about 20 minutes to walk to the entrance of Ta Puong cave. Ta Puong cave has a wide door, a high ceiling of about 10m wide and deep into the mountain about 200m. The heart of the cave is divided into two parts, one side is a stream of clear water, the other side is sandy beach. The stream bed in Ta Puong cave has a width of 4-5m, the depth is uneven, there are places to wade through, there are places where you have to swim along the stream to get deep inside. To move inside the dark cave, you must bring a flashlight. The volume of stalactites in Ta Puong cave is not much, but nature favors creating many unique and unique shapes. A stalactite like a ceiling lamp is shining when illuminated under the flashlight. In addition to fish in the stream bed, Ta Puong cave recorded other animals such as bats living. People here said that, apart from indigenous people, Ta Puong cave has never been visited by outsiders until now. Therefore, the cave still retains its natural wildness. People become small before the natural beauty in the heart of Ta Puong cave.

Here visitors can immerse themselves in the cool water in a lake of about 5,000 square meters, with clear water. With a short distance from each other, Ta Puong cave and Thac Puong waterfall 1,2 are new and attractive destinations for tourists who love to explore and immerse themselves in nature. Currently, Quang Tri province is also studying tourism development in these destinations.

The lack of information raises more questions. Recently, 24 scientists sent a letter to the World Health Organization (WHO) asking for an independent and rigorous investigation because they thought that the international investigation to China in early February was not deep enough. US President Joe Biden on May 26 also ordered intelligence forces to “double efforts” to investigate the origin of the Covid-19 pandemic, including the possibility of a leak “from a laboratory accident”. While the theory that the corona virus leaked from the laboratory was “resurrected”, two competing groups of experts in the study of bat diseases in Wuhan became the target of criticism. The reason is that they are willing to ignore safety measures during research. Many new diseases in the past originated in bats. Photo: SCMP. “Batwoman” and Wuhan Institute of Virology Nicknamed “bat woman”, Dr. Shi Zhengli is a famous Chinese corona virus researcher. She has identified many strains of the virus similar to SARS (severe acute respiratory distress syndrome) over the years and forewarned of new pandemic risks. Thach’s laboratory at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) also discovered and studied viruses that are closely related to corona virus. However, the scientists point out that the two viruses are still decades apart in natural evolution. According to the report of the WHO expert team, Ms. Thach said that all field activities were carried out with full protective clothing, including N95 masks, overalls, visors, and gloves. However, in a speech in June 2018, Ms. Thach said that is not the case. “Most of the time, we’ll wear simpler protective gear, and that’s fine,” Thach said in her speech. That’s because most diseases in bats can’t be directly transmitted to humans, but can only be through intermediate animals, Ms. Thach explained. To illustrate, Ms. Thach showed the audience during the presentation a photo of her team casting nets to catch bats in the cave and sorting the samples. Some people on the team only wore medical masks and thin rubber gloves, while others used their bare hands and did not wear masks. “When are we going to strengthen the protective gear? For example, when there are too many bats in the cave or when there is a lot of dust when entering the cave,” Thach said. When the pandemic hit, Ms. Thach became quiet and appeared only occasionally. On February 2, 2020, she posted to friends on the social network WeChat and “swore on her life” that her lab was not related to the pandemic. Three months later, Ms. Thach continued to post denying rumors that she had brought intelligence files to the West, according to Global Times . Chinese virologist Shi Zhengli at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Photo: AFP. When suspicions fell on the WIV, Ms. Thach sent a statement to the scientific journal Science in July. She said the corona virus could not have come from the WIV because her team did not encounter this strain during research. In addition, every employee here has tested negative for corona virus antibodies. According to Ms. Thach, before the pandemic, her team “never exposed or studied this virus, and did not know of its existence”. But she also admitted that her lab has not yet sequenced the genes of every sample due to financial and human constraints. She declined to say how many samples remain unsequenced. In January, Thach’s laboratory was questioned even more after the US State Department announced that there were “reasons to believe” that some WIV researchers showed symptoms similar to Covid-19 in the fall of 2019. May, Wall Street Journal also cited intelligence reports that three WIV researchers had been so sick that they needed to be examined. Vien Chi Minh, WIV’s laboratory director, called this a “blatant lie” in response to state media. Bat explorer and Wuhan CDC CDC During this time, the Wuhan Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lab was less visible than the WIV. The WHO expert team’s report on the trip to the Wuhan CDC did not include notes on research safety measures. According to the report, the laboratory moved on December 2, 2019 to a location near the Huanan market – the market that was linked to the first cases of corona virus infection. “Such activity can disrupt the operation of any laboratory,” the WHO expert team said. However, the Wuhan CDC laboratory did not record any interruptions, according to the WHO expert. The Wuhan CDC is the place to monitor China’s initial response to the pandemic. At the Wuhan CDC, there is also a person who regularly works with bats – Dien Tuan Hoa. According to the Washington Post , in terms of position, Dien Tuan Hoa is a deputy technician in the pest control department of the Wuhan CDC. But Mr. Dien is known for being an aggressive adventurer when it comes to working with bats and insects. “He often goes to places that other people cannot find to get the necessary specimens,” a colleague said of Mr. Dien on a local TV station in January 2020. “He can confidently say that he can catch what others can’t.” Tian Junhua on a field trip to collect insects in Hubei province. Photo: China Daily. Using nets and traps, Mr. Dien’s team caught 155 bats in his home province of Hubei, and hundreds of bats in other areas for research in 2013. Mr. Dien was also a member of the team. discovered 1,445 new vertebrate RNA virus species. This result was published in a famous scientific journal Nature in 2016. Once, Wuhan CDC held an internal meeting with the theme “Learning from the achievements of Dien Tuan Hoa”. “No one can remember how many mountains he climbed, how many rivers he waded, how many bat caves he explored, how many stables he crawled, and how many landfills he had to search,” the CDC wrote of the event. However, Mr. Dien also admitted that sometimes he did not comply with research safety rules. In 2017, Mr. Dien told the state newspaper Wuhan Evening News that he once forgot his personal protective equipment, so he had to be isolated at home for 2 weeks after being shot in the body by bat urine. On several other occasions, he got bat blood on his skin while trying to control the animal with forceps, Mr. Dien said. On February 3, 2020, Mr. Dien’s team continued to appear in the journal Nature with early-stage clinical descriptions of a corona virus patient in Wuhan. The team’s research indicates that bats can be a host for pathogens. But when Covid-19 spread, Mr. Dien became quiet. March 2020, the state newspaper Health Times An anonymous source said Mr. Dien was not infected with corona virus. According to the article, Mr. Dien was in a bad mood because of rumors about whether he was patient zero. According to a report at the end of March by the WHO expert team, the Wuhan CDC denied storing or experimenting with bat viruses before the pandemic took place. However, in a video, Mr. Dien said he had been to dozens of bat caves and studied 300 types of virus vectors. Also from March, Mr. Dien no longer spoke in public. This highlights the challenge of an independent investigation into the origins of Covid-19: Many of the people who might have had key information in Wuhan are now silent. Mr. Dien continued to research during this time. In August 2020, Mr. Dien was a co-author on a study on ticks. Another of his November 2020 studies focused on antibiotic resistance genes in fish. Mr. Dien no longer speaks or publishes research on bats.

It was early afternoon in the midst of the murky rocky mountains. The moon of January 13 has appeared at the top of the mountain. Uncle returned to border marker 108, in Cao Bang territory. Before Uncle was Mr. Le Quang Ba. Behind Uncle was Mr. Phung Chi Kien. Mr. Vu Anh went to the place to welcome Uncle. “It seems that Uncle had a lot of self-restraint – Mr. Vu Anh recounted – to keep his appearance calm. Whatever you see, Uncle always looks passionately.” Here, new corn fields sprout. Here, the rice field harvested during the year, is burning stubble. White bougainvillea flowers, looking like clusters of chili peppers, radiate fragrance. In the evening, when you reach Coc Bo cave, you have to go upstream to near the source, cross the other side, then climb up the rocky mountain to have a way to climb up the cave. The path is narrow, with many thorns, crisscrossing vines, and old reeds with white and silver flags cover the path. When I got there, I sat down to rest and found that Uncle’s luggage was empty. Only a small suitcase, no more than three gangs long, containing documents and a Baby typewriter, sent to Uncle Ho from Hanoi when he was still in Kunming. “The Flame of Pac Bo” by artist Nguyen Nghia Duyen. Photo: Vietnam Photo Newspaper. At the foot of the mountain is Pac Bo village, lying in the middle of rocks and mountains. In the past, usually at night, parents had to carry their children to sleep in a cave, to avoid bandits coming to rob and the West station to patrol. From 1937, there were brothers Le Quang Ba, Hoang Sam and Quoc Van to start the first phase. Through blood injection and swearing, knowing exactly who you are, the movement gradually spread. The village organizes a meeting for mutual aid and good solidarity. Every month, wherever you go, you will be on time for the Association’s activities. Since mid-1940, for some reason, those good cadres have gone, no one knows. The old man, surnamed Duong, from Nung Giang, remembers that night well, there are two more nights until the Lunar New Year. The Duong family is sitting around the fire on stilts. Out there, border night, full of secrets. Gusty. There was the sound of gunfire from the West station in Soc Giang. Suddenly there was the sound of someone rustling leaves around the house, the sound of rattling up the ladder: – Where is Dai Lam? Out to welcome guests – the stranger spoke up. Dai Lam stood up. Two silhouettes of men appeared in front of the oil lamp. It turned out to be two brothers Le Quang Ba and Hoang Sam. The whole family rejoiced. Wine and meat served. After chatting for a long time, Le Quang Ba called Dai Lam to the corner of the house and whispered: – Dai Lam, where can I borrow some clothes, a mat, a few bowls, a pair of chopsticks and pots and pans to bring to the cave. Because he was not the head of the family, Dai Lam had to tell his father the truth. The old man dismissed: – It can not be. For Tet, why go to the cave to stay. It was freezing cold, I slept in a cave, I couldn’t stand it. The two comrades insisted on asking permission to return to the cave. The old man, surnamed Duong, gently asked: – Or if you have something you don’t like with the villagers, just tell me. Mr. Le Quang Ba had to tell the old man that he had a strange comrade who came back, had to keep it a secret, and it was not convenient to go down to the village. Mr. Duong took things on loan, but kept muttering all night: “It’s so cold to go to the cave to suffer. It is clear: Good people have many misfortunes”. That was the first night Uncle Ho slept in a cave. The next morning, it was cold and rainy, the wild chickens had not yet woken up, Uncle got up, went out to practice climbing, walking, then went down to the stream to bathe. Then Uncle Uncle entered the cave, gathered the brothers, assigned tasks, chose a corner of the cave by himself, brought documents and typewriters to work. Mr. Vu Anh recounted: “The first day he returned home, Uncle immediately started working in a normal way. We thought that Uncle had been in this cave for a long time.” That day, Dai Lam’s father and son went to the fields to cultivate spring corn to the wild Lung Min upland. There, luxuriant rocky mountains, large gnawed forests have not been discovered by axes. A gentle old man came over: – Happy New Year, good luck. Wishing you all a very happy new year. Dai Lam’s father and son saw the old man for the first time, but they were like themselves. The two old people got to know each other, the story was awkward at first, because the one who spoke Nung Giang and the other spoke Kinh, were not fluent in each other’s languages. Finally, use Cantonese, speak fluently, occasionally write Chinese characters, draw words on the ground with a stick. The story is more and more bold and intimate, the new old friend named Thu Son – Gia Thu. The next day, when he went to the countryside, Mr. Duong told his eldest daughter-in-law to arrange a basket full of wine, meat, banh chung, and tea. The daughter-in-law understood, and asked her father-in-law to go to the cave to see the old man’s face. Arriving in Lung Min, he told Dai Lam and his eldest daughter-in-law to bring Tet gifts to Coc Bo cave. In the distance, behind the thorns growing in the rocks, many people are sitting and working with two black bearded old men (Uncle and comrade Cap). The older man, whom I met yesterday, was agile, wearing wide-sleeved indigo clothes, and came out smiling and greeting. The eldest daughter-in-law put down the gift basket in front of Gia Thu, then raised her head to say hello, asking permission to come down to work as a farm. Mr. Duong and Dai Lam who stayed were invited to have lunch with their comrades. In addition to the food provided by the house, there was also cabbage soup and salty fried meat with fish sauce. Spring wine meal, several times Mr. Duong begged: – Inviting you and your comrades to come down to celebrate Tet for fun. It’s strange, just go down, there are locals to worry about. Old Thu said: – I still want to, but I can’t get down yet, old man. The eyes and ears of the empire are many. The secret revolution is to keep the people alive. Then Gia Thu turned the story in another direction: – I’m old and still working for the revolution. He’s old, but he can still do revolutionary work. Uncle Duong struggled: – I can’t do it as a revolutionary. – The revolution is a lot of work, old man. Depending on talent, according to strength, whoever can do what can do it. They kept secrets for the revolution, helped protect cadres passing by in their villages, took care of the family work so that their children and grandchildren could be free to go to revolutionary activities and support the revolution. But these are the jobs you are doing. Uncle Duong was so happy to hear that, he nodded. – Well, what do you think, I can do it like that. At that time, on the cave was opening the first military cadre training class – attended by Mr. Dam Quang Trung – in order to foster a higher level of leadership and command for the key comrades in the region, to serve as a framework for military personnel. later part of the guerrilla movement. Anthropology about bases, a student asked: – Dear comrade, in the mountains, the mountains and forests are used as a base. What about in plains without rough terrain? Old Thu laughed and said: – If there is a mountain, rely on the mountain. If there is a river, it depends on the river. If there is no mountain, if there is a river, people will be the mountain river Gia Thu again mentioned four Chinese characters: “Human mountain, human sea”. And further explain that wherever there are people, there are mountains, forests, and seas. We must organize and mobilize the people’s strength into forests and seas to rely on. Knowing that Uncle had to live in a cave, the grassroots families in Pac Bo village loved him more and more, in their hearts of unease. One day, the old people – including Mr. Duong and his father-in-law Le Quang Ba – invited each other to bring wine and snacks to invite Uncle. Then borrow a cup of joy, express the wishes of the villagers, invite Uncle Uncle to come down to the village, when they search, hide in the forest. Uncle said goodbye and said: “Now that the revolutionary movement has developed well, everyone in the country loves cadres and is ready to help and protect them. Loving each other, helping each other make a revolution like that is good, not just staying together. Besides, each person has a job: People work in the fields, we do other jobs, I’m afraid it’s not convenient to go down to the village. Moreover, in this position, it is better to keep it a secret.” From that drink, Gia Thu mobilized the elders to establish the old patriarch to save the country. The old ancestor soon expanded rapidly into the surrounding areas.

During a trip to discover the village of Bru Van Kieu people in Quang Binh, blogger Vinh Bear took time to visit Cha Loi cave. Before the trip, the tour unit will give visitors helmets with lights, army shoes for trekking and gloves for climbing… The structure of Cha Loi cave is divided into 3 floors. The 2nd floor is the entrance to the cave, after that, visitors will move down to the 1st floor and finish by climbing up to the exit on the 3rd floor. “As soon as I got to the cave entrance, I saw the cool breeze inside blowing out. Turning on the flashlight to shine inside, I started the journey to discover Cha Loi”, Vinh Bear shared. The first impression is the stalactites in the cave. This blogger admitted to having “A eyes, O mouth” when looking at the natural masterpieces of Cha Loi cave. It is known that each year, stalactites are only about 0.03 mm long. Therefore, visitors absolutely do not touch or touch them during the exploration of the cave. Leaving the 2nd floor, you will go down to the 1st floor to continue the journey of discovery. The stalactites on this floor are equally majestic as the ones above. However, it is more special because there are stalactites like human heads. A stalactite block shaped like a bust of General Vo Nguyen Giap. In addition, Cha Loi cave is also known as “Ong Giap cave”. A better view of the famous stalactite in the cave. In the journey to explore the cave, you also need to be prepared to wade in the water. Some sections of water are just knee-high. However, there is a stretch of water up to the chest. Impressive pictures when checking-in in the cave is what you can expect with this exploration. The journey to explore Cha Loi cave takes about 4 hours. According to Vinh Bear, this is a relatively suitable journey for all subjects. “In my group there is a 60-year-old girl and two 6-year-old children, but walking is not difficult,” he said. After the adventure in the cave, the group moved to Ban Coi. There is a love valley area suitable for night camping. There are only 3 Bru Van Kieu households living in this area. After setting up the tent, you can immerse yourself in the cool stream to wash away dirt in the process of exploring Cha Loi cave. “The feeling is nothing. Alone, free to struggle”, Vinh Bear shared. The dishes will be prepared by Bru Van Kieu people. This time, the group enjoyed roast pork, walking chicken and fresh river fish. “One of the things I like most here is that people talk to each other more. This area has no phone signal, so messages and social media notifications can’t distract us,” he said.

Andres started digging a cave in which he created a bunker because at the age of 14, after an argument with his mother, he often wanted to hide in the cellar to “breathe”. Arguing with his mother, the boy dug underground tunnels to “breathe”. (Photo: Twitter) After choosing a favorable location, the 20-year-old called for help from his friend, who has a pneumatic drill, and together they created a cave about 3 meters deep. Andres reinforced the roof, walls with concrete and columns, then created a cozy atmosphere inside so he could relax with friends in the cellar. The total cost of creating the underground tunnel is only 60 USD. “Andres is determined to get the job done, because he has always loved the job. Since he was a child, he often built small huts and treehouses,” wrote the New York Post. “I have always loved building huts. I live in the countryside and often find a suitable place for me to build a small house,” Andres shared. However, Andres’ hideout sometimes flooded and was regularly visited by insects, spiders and snails, but the amateur builder was not at all shy about this problem. “I have no problem with them. I knew I might have destroyed their home, so I gave them a chance to build a new one,” Andres added. Meanwhile, Andres’ parents show a love for his underground lair. Now it is important that the cellar is verified by the local authorities. The inspectors had to make sure that the shelter met all the safety requirements so that the guy and his friends could hang out in it without endangering their lives. Also related to tunneling, recently, rescue forces in Mexico have just rescued a man who was accidentally trapped in the same tunnel he dug to secretly spy on his girlfriend. To avoid detection, he dug a tunnel for several days to go underneath his girlfriend’s house in Puerto Penasco, Sonora state, on the Gulf of California. After the incident, the new girlfriend told police that she had heard strange noises for weeks before but only thought it was cats. When rescuing, authorities said the victim was drunk and severely dehydrated. After being rescued, this man is currently detained for investigation.

Fruit garden planted on basalt Through the fairy land Buon Choah is also known as Cat village (Choah village, Krong No district, Dak Nong province), formerly mainly Ede people, they took the alluvial sand from Krong No river to name the village. The remote commune of Krong No district is the location of the global volcanic geological park. On the way from Buon Ma Thuot city to Choah village (where there is a volcanic cave complex), we heard Mr. Le Hoang Co, General Director of Dam San Tourism and Trade Company, a passionate explorer, many times. led the delegations to experience and learn about the land and volcanic caves of Dak Nong, sharing: for many years, the people here have lived by the rice trees, drank the river water, lived a kind and loving life. They love the road which is the burning rocks not because of the scorching sun but due to the impact of the volcano, which is quite interesting and strange. Especially the orchards planted on the wrong rocks are full of fruit. Whether it is a rice field or an orchard, when harvested, the yield is unbelievably high. This place has tourism potential, attractive agricultural resources, must combine all the strengths of the region to make products to attract tourists and improve the quality of life of the people. What makes this land poetic beauty is the endless stretch of rice fields, becoming a feature of the material and spiritual life of the people here. The fragrance of rice rose gently through the nose and the golden sun fell to the foot of the hill, Nguyen Thi Yen (Thanh Son village, Choah village) expressed, people call the rice fields in Choah village the golden rice bowl. because ST24 rice variety has good rice quality and high yield. In 1996, her family came here to set up a business, at this time, they grew RVT rice. In 2016, the government experimented with planting ST24, now it has grown the whole field. Her family has 2 hectares of this rice variety, two crops a year for 14 tons/ha and 2 sao of fruit trees: jackfruit, coconut, litchi and 10 cows, with a total income of 300 million VND per year. The newly discovered cave has a length of nearly 1 km The Krong No River appears before your eyes. The large ferry approached the shore, a group of 45 people from a company in crimson uniforms carried luggage onto the ferry. More than a few minutes of moving, touching the shore, each group in turn was arranged to wait for 5 workers and farmers. The peacock raced up the slope, everyone was surprised to see papaya, avocado trees on both sides of the road, forming a beautiful green patch, pressed against the dark gray pumice area. And the farmers themselves still see the mystery, in the fields and fields, there are only rocks and stones, yet the orchards are still green for bountiful crops. People forget the fatigue of the heat, find the heaven and earth here strangely enchanting. The hustle and bustle of life gradually subsided, in front of my eyes, thousands of colors flickered back and forth around the foot of the mountain, which was quiet and immense. This land for many years has been deposited by alluvium, now becoming the most fertile place of Choah village. The Krong No River builds up from the water to the products on both sides of the river, giving the local people a warm and friendly atmosphere, amidst the vastness of heaven and earth. The legendary story of A Tay and A Yong is told by the village elders over a jar of yeast that has been handed down for generations. That, their love was hindered because the girl’s house was too poor, there was no gift to bring the boy back to be her husband. The desperate couple threw themselves into the river to die. The girl turns into Krong Ana river (mother river), boy turns into Krong No river (father river). The Serepok River is the eternal blend of faithful love. The river has nurtured and created a culture unlike any other. While here there is a revelation of wonder that fascinates all mankind. The Mystery of the Bat Cave The vehicle carrying the group stopped in the middle of the orchard, next to the people’s farm huts. Weaving through the fruit-laden lychee orchard, we walked more than a kilometer on jagged pumice paths, frozen by the molten lava spewing out of the crater. The feet quickly reached the basalt field stretching as far as the eye could see. People seem to be trapped in the vast windy space, the fatigue is somewhat reduced. Touching the lava rock shelf where the new cave was discovered, each stone surrounded a giant arch. Following the flash of a flashlight, we groped on the jagged rock and entered the nearly 1 km long cave. In the dark and deep recesses of the cave, the smell of dampness penetrated the nostrils. The cool world inside the cave dispels the hot air outside. Flashlight streaks quickly glide over countless stalactites, traces of a volcano that have fallen asleep, making everyone stunned. The cave we are exploring, the experience is the newly discovered cave. Indigenous people say that there are many caves around this area, including bats, which is not strange. Before knowing Chu Bluk cave, the people around here used to call it Bat cave. If there are tourists to visit, these caves are not the first place they introduce, because of the wildness, difficult-to-find location, undeveloped services. Therefore, this has contributed to preserving the original purity of the cave until now. Leaving the cave, the sunset is long. On the Krong No river, the bobbing boats of the fishermen cast their nets and cast fishing lines. The woman showed off a 3kg trout struggling in her hand, returning down the stream after releasing the spoils. From time to time, motorboats carrying sand tore through the water, making the river’s surface agitated. Then, momentarily right there, the river was calm and calm again… The volcanic cave system in Krong No district, Dak Nong province is a 25km-long volcanic cave system in basalt, stretching from the crater of Buon Choah along the length of the Serepok River to the area of ​​Dray Sap waterfall. Dak Nong Geopark was recognized by UNESCO as a global geopark in 2020, contributing to strongly promoting tourism and attracting domestic and foreign tourists to explore. This is the third global geopark in Vietnam.

Day after day after school, he used a hoe to expand his cave bit by bit. The speed of “construction” increased dramatically after Canto invited another friend to bring a pneumatic drill, and together they created an extremely unique 3 meter deep cave. The way down to the cave. Accordingly, this cave also looks quite “cool” when it has a living room, bedroom with heating, Wi-Fi network and music system. Canto said he reinforced the roof and walls of the cave with concrete and columns to prevent collapse. The total cost of buying the necessary building materials for this “project” only costs about 60 USD (about 1.4 million VND), Canto revealed. Inside the cave of the Spaniard. Occasionally, his cave also has a bit of trouble dealing with floods and is often visited by insects, spiders and snails. However, the amateur builder is not too concerned about these “uninvited friends” and shares: “There is no problem. Since I have invaded their home, I will have them build a new house on my wall.” A post about Canto’s “dwelling” on social media caught the attention of local officials. After that, the government sent inspectors to Canto’s house to check the strength and safety of the cave. Andres Canto in his cave. Although he doesn’t live all day in the cave, Canto spends a lot of his free time down there. His parents also did not show any objection to the son’s work. Canto said his mother watched the video of the cave and went down to see it herself: “My mother went down there too and said it was smaller than the one in the video.” With this unique idea, if at any time you intend to leave home because you are angry with your parents, but you are afraid of ghosts and dark, Canto has a place to stay… temporarily!

The morning of May 22 started with the excitement of 172 athletes waiting at the starting line. They are participating in the 100 km cross country race in Gansu province, China. Before the opening whistle blew, Zhang Xiaotao felt that it was cold and the wind blew the hats of several other athletes. This is a sign that a series of challenges await him in the race ahead. Just a few hours later, Mr. Truong was lying unconscious on a rugged mountain due to the rain and the bone-chilling wind. Rescue vehicles joined the search for the athletes. Photo: AFP. Moment of life and death Truong Tieu Dao is a sports blogger. He was among the survivors rescued after being trapped in hail and cold winds without any protective gear. More than 1,200 rescuers were deployed to search for athletes on the mountainside. A total of 21 unlucky people were killed. Many people have fainted before because of hypothermia. According to Truong, the contest started at 9am. During the first 20 km of the competition, he felt the weather was still within an acceptable level. However, when it came to the hill climb, the runners began to face the most difficult part of the race when heavy rain obscured their vision. “The rain kept hitting my face and my eyes blurred. I couldn’t see the road clearly,” he said. Right before starting to climb the mountain, Mr. Truong overtook Hoang Quan Quan, the men’s marathon champion at the 2019 Paralympics. Mr. Hoang died not long after. A surviving athlete undergoes a health check in a hospital in Baiyin City. Photo: AFP. By the time the athletes reached the middle of the mountainside, it was already past 10am. Truong Tieu Dao felt that the wind was strong at that time, about level 9. Cold rain and strong wind swept across his face, making him feel like a knife. His whole body trembled because he was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt, shorts and a thin jacket to block the sun. When faced with weather that was harsher than a sandstorm, Zhang Xiaotao continued to run for a few more kilometers. By this time, his body became cold due to hypothermia. The wind was so strong that he slipped and fell dozens of times until he couldn’t get up on his own and fainted. His left arm and leg were injured. “At this point, I surrender to the wind and rain.” When he woke up, he found himself in a cave, wrapped in a blanket and sitting by the fire. A shepherd found him and brought him to safety. “I owe him my life,” said Truong. Chu Khac Minh is a resident of Truong Sinh village. Every day, he went to the top of the mountain to herd sheep. On May 22, when it started to rain, he had to go to the cave to take shelter. In the past, he also used to heat and cook here. When he looked up the hill, he saw that in the rain, Zhang Xiaotao was fainting. Before that, he had also saved five other people. Mr. Zhou tried to carry Zhang Xiaotao on his back, moving little by little towards the cave. At this time, Mr. Truong was still aware that he was being dragged away. However, because of his small body, Mr. Zhou could only drag him on the ground. After that, a few athletes who had recovered temporarily joined forces to bring Zhang Xiaotao into the cave. It took more than two hours from the time Mr. Truong fainted until he was rescued. Zhang Xiaotao is the only survivor among the top 6 athletes. Unforeseen danger After two days of treatment to restore health, Truong Tieu Dao was discharged from the hospital and returned to his hometown in Luoyang. As he exited the train gate, a member of the welcoming crew hugged him. The man gave him a bottle of water and said, “Now go home, drink some water.” He used the palm of his hand to turn the cap of the water bottle. His fingers were still numb. Zhang couldn’t even tear the plastic bag to get the mask. Baiyin city government officials said the tragedy happened due to a sudden change in weather when the athletes were at an altitude of 2,000 meters. The story of athletes stuck without phones, without raincoats published by Chinese media has caused outrage in the past few days. Rescuers rushed to find the athletes. Photo: AFP. By the evening of May 23, the Gansu provincial government had set up a task force to investigate the incident. It is one of the deadliest events in Chinese sports. This raises concerns about the dangers of the transcendental runs that draw thousands of participants each year. Even the most veteran cannot avoid danger. As cross-country races have grown in popularity over the past two decades, organizers have continued to include increasingly difficult challenges and longer races. The cross-country run on May 22 is part of a series of annual programs that have been successfully held in the previous 4 years. This is seen as a way to promote tourism in Gansu, one of the poorest provinces in China. Participants are usually mountain climbers and cross-country runners. Many of them are motivated by the prize money as well as the glory. According to the event’s official account, the prize pool for this year’s contest is around $2,300. Yun Yancao, one of China’s top athletes, did not participate in the competition. However, he lost two friends, Hoang An Bin and Luong Tinh. The contest is an opportunity for them to earn a large amount of money because neither of them comes from rich backgrounds. Luong Tinh in an earlier race in Hong Kong. Photo: Sportograf. According to Mr. Van, Luong Tinh participated in the contest because of his wife and young children, as well as his passion. “Luong Tinh always works and trains hard. He cares about his family a lot,” Mr. Van commented. Experiencing life and death moments, Truong Tieu Dao still loves this sport and will continue to participate. However, for him, it was still a painful lesson: “I will carefully consider the different factors and improve my gear in the competition.” “Man is very small before nature. A wind, a rain can take anyone’s life,” he said.

Inside Canto’s cave. After being scolded and criticized by his parents, 14-year-old Canto started digging in his family’s garden after school. Finally, Canto invited a friend to use a pneumatic drill to create a 3m deep cave. Canto also reinforced the roof and walls of the cave with concrete and columns. The total cost of the project is only about 60 USD (nearly 1.4 million VND). “I have always loved building small huts. I live in the countryside and when I find discarded wood, I build a nice house,” Cantor said. Cantor in his cave. Cantor’s cave sometimes suffers from flooding and is often visited by insects, spiders and snails, but the amateur builder doesn’t mind.

Many homeowners are interested in kitchen feng shui and share the same question: When it comes to the kitchen, any family’s kitchen is related to the fire and areas to wash food such as the sink. . So how is the principle of distribution of Water and Fire in the kitchen? To answer the above questions, feng shui expert Phung Phuong has given the golden rules in kitchen layout to bring fortune to the owner. The most basic rule of the kitchen is prosperity, so it is necessary to avoid confrontational fire. Must be designed to balance water and fire. Water represents heaven, Fire represents earth. If the fire and water oppose each other, the person in the middle will not receive a good atmosphere. Therefore, for feng shui kitchen (prosperous room on Fire), the equipment in the kitchen also needs to have a reasonable distribution of Water Fire. The kitchen for cooking the Fire element and the sink for the Water element must be separated into two separate blocks. Specifically, the distance from the sink to the kitchen should be 80-100 cm away. Liquids such as fish sauce, cooking oil, etc., should be at least 60 cm away from the stove. However, light energy sources in the kitchen such as Fire and Water need to strengthen the supporting factors for those elements such as the Wood element in the circle of three births, which is Aquarius, Wood and Fire to create balance , avoid Water – Fire opposite impulse. In a reasonable kitchen, you should put potted plants that can live in a low light environment such as cactus, aloe vera, stone flowers, sprouted potatoes, … Faucets must not be placed opposite the hob. The orientation of the kitchen always surrounded by Wood will be very good. Do not let two water clamp a Fire like a stove between two sinks, or two stoves between two sinks on either side, so it will reduce the fire of the kitchen. The kitchen always creates a bad impulse, but the essence of a house must have 4 elements of apple worship (in which apple is the kitchen element). There is a new fire to create the five fire elements to balance the five elements. Therefore, it is not because the apple creates a bad pulse, but leaving the house to remove it will lack the Fire element. Fire is one of the factors that make up human civilization, since ancient times tribes from the cave have gathered around the fire and now the modern kitchen is also a place for people to gather and chat. Note that the kitchen should not be placed outside the house unless it is on the premises designated by a feng shui expert because it will lose the Fire element. Losing the Fire element will affect health: losing the complementary elements for the heart, eyes, tendons, reducing the drastic and agile of the owner. * Information for reference and contemplation.

(Photo: AFP/VNA) Guatemala’s Picaya volcano began erupting again in February with a lava flow more than 1km long.

That is the reason for the birth of a pizza called “Pizza .”. Picaya .” Follow Mr. Garcia, a 34-year-old auditor, to witness pizza baking at the foot of Picaya volcano and visit volcano This is a very enjoyable experience. Ingredients Pizza Picaya is like any other ordinary pizza, the main difference is that the special oven is created from lava and the mold can withstand temperatures up to 1,000 degrees Celsius. After spreading the dough into a special mold and adding the necessary ingredients such as meat, sausages, cheese, vegetables, tubers…. cake. With high heat in special “ovens”, Picaya pizza is ready to serve guests in less than 15 minutes. Visitors enjoying this cake all feel the strange taste of pizza baked on Picaya volcanic lava. Of course, in order to bake the cake, Mr. Garcia must wear protective gear. Mr. Garcia promoted this experiential tourism model in 2014 after he discovered several locations at the base of Picaya volcano that had the ideal temperature for baking pizza. Initially, there were not many customers, but gradually his Pizza shop attracted the curiosity of many people and now everyone who comes to Guatemla knows about Picaya pizza. Even as the Picaya volcano “wake up” and spewed lava over the past several weeks, Mr. Garcia baked cakes directly on the red lava. Pacaya, located 2,552 meters above sea level, is one of three active volcanoes out of a total of 32 volcanoes in Guatemala.

Archaeologists have accidentally found female skeletons from hundreds of years ago at the bottom of the lake In ancient China, the status of women was very low. The ancient doctrine of “three submissions” comes from the book “Rite – mourning” by Boc Thuong. In the book, it is written that “at home, follow the father, when married, follow the husband, the husband follows the son” (At home, follow the father, marry, follow the husband, the husband dies with the children). Simply from this point of view, it can be seen that a woman is completely dependent, has no autonomy, can only obey her father, husband and son. The higher the status of men, the lower the status of women in the old society. They are only considered as a tool to give birth, not allowed to read books, only “take, exam, exam, draw” is enough because these abilities can be used to please men and become men. famous women. Ancient society had a mindset that limited women’s abilities. They even firmly believe that “A woman without any talent is a virtue”. This idea is so deeply ingrained that many women at the present time still agree with it. In “The Commandments of Women”, Ban Co once mentioned this point of view: “Men consider strength to be a precious thing, women take weakness to make beauty”. To a certain extent, this saying reflects Ban Co’s prejudice against women. She believes that women only go up to do things within the rules, but men must be stronger than women. In such a society, women are naturally subject to a lot of oppressive rules. If you do something wrong, you will face a great tribulation. We have to talk about these things today, because at the bottom of a lake in Guangdong, the bodies of many women have been found. After the archaeologists conducted investigative research, they also came to a conclusion about an extremely cruel fact in history. Women have almost no status in feudal society Every country has its own supreme basic principles named law. It not only limits people’s words and deeds, but can also be a powerful weapon for people to protect themselves, the key to helping society to be harmonious and stable. However, in ancient times, the law was not quite like that. Many of the provisions set forth in the ancient laws were cruel and draconian, imposing cruel punishments on prisoners, there were various types of death sentences, and more and more tortures. For women without status in ancient times, the punishments were even harsher. There are even punishments specifically designed to deal with women only, many of which involve the use of corporal punishment. Because of her low status, women always have to accept all their mistakes. Emotional misbehavior is all about women. For example, if a woman is close to men other than her husband, it will be considered a violation of her virginity and imprisonment, and the most serious of all types of punishment is imprisonment in a pig cage. In the past, a woman’s virginity was the most important thing, so if many people wanted to slander or harm a woman, attacking from this aspect would be a fatal knife. The punishment for this is to put the woman in a bamboo pig cage, then dump a lot of rocks and drown her in the water until she dies. Confinement in a pig cage is the heaviest punishment. Women who are no longer virgins will be dealt with in this way. Therefore, the bamboo cages originally used to carry pigs are called “soaked pig cage” is for this reason. Blue Cave Lake in Guangdong is very famous and is loved by many people to visit and explore because under the lake there are many extremely strange caves. By chance, a diver while exploring found a lot of skeletons on the bottom of the lake. The man panicked and went ashore and called the police. When police arrived at the scene to collect the bones, they discovered that the skeletons were more than a hundred years old. So they contacted archaeologists and asked them to send experts to survey the site. After experts arrived and examined them, they confirmed that these were the remains of women from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Experts have also discovered that these women are all locked in feudal pig cages. However, after the establishment of the Republic of China, this punishment was gradually abolished. The notion that men despise women is also decreasing, and more and more women in society protect their legitimate rights and interests, flourishing in many fields.

In particular, thanks to the opening of the road along Lap An lagoon, many eco-tourism sites in the area were discovered and exploited, contributing to creating jobs and improving the lives of many households. in the area. And Do Waterfall in Bald Coconut is one of the eco-tourist destinations that in our opinion you should come to experience this summer. If you depart from Hue, follow Highway 1A to Phu Loc, cross 2 passes Phuoc Tuong, Phu Gia, look to the right, you will see a wide lagoon with a soft winding road bordered by a picturesque landscape. drawing – That is the lagoon and the road along Lap An. You can choose to turn right from the foot of Phu Gia pass, or continue to go straight towards Lang Co town and turn in, leisurely follow this road for a few more kilometers, to the territory of Bald Dua village, you will see a signpost. ; Or simply ask the locals, anyone can show you the right way. Clear water for guests to enjoy swimming and bathing The road to Thac Do is very easy to go, low-rise 4-seater cars can also come to the place. The waterfall originates from the top of Bach Ma mountain, when it rumbles, when it travels through the green primeval forest canopy of the National Forest, to Bald Coconut, the water poured over many years has created 3 successive lakes. connected, transparent. Each lake is about a hundred square meters wide, enough for visitors to enjoy bathing and swimming. At the bottom of the lake, which is not too deep, there are many small stream fish swimming, working hard to find moss to eat, or hiding in the rock holes that make the children love to dive and catch them tirelessly. From the lakes, guests can go upstream, just a short distance to check-in, cool off with pure white water. Those who want more can find a certain niche, sit with their backs to the massage water comfortably without having to be afraid of charging fees and calculating “tips”. Of course, care must be taken to avoid locations with a lot of moss to avoid dangerous falls. Eating and drinking, shacks are served by local people, simple and reasonable prices. The food is fresh and delicious, but in general, the scenery is so fresh and beautiful, everything feels delicious. In the first years, go to the place to find the shack before ordering. Later on, tourists heard the voice coming back a lot, the service was also “pro” gradually, there was a Fb page, there was a phone number for customers to book in advance. I just hope that the business people here know how to respect and preserve the landscape, which is also preserving their source of life. Must raise awareness of environmental protection, awareness of preserving beautiful views for the lake and waterfall. Avoid the situation where everyone does, strong everyone wins, leading to damage to the destination, tourists turning away is a waste and a waste. Sunny days have sounded very acrid. Get in the car, Thac Do is on duty. You will surely be satisfied. https://dulich.petrotimes.vn/

The coffin is made of a large wooden trunk split into two equal parts, in the middle is cut in the shape of a trough to place the body, then close to each other) with keyholes at both ends that are locked with wedges. The coffin is about 1m long, 0.4m in diameter (many are broken and rotten). There are no carved patterns on the coffin. The coffin is arranged in two rows facing up in the style of terraced fields located close to the cave wall, inside there are human bones. “This is a rather unique form of ancient burial in a cave. The dead are not buried but buried in a cave, the coffin is made of tree trunks, crafted quite delicately, shaped like a small canoe, expressed through the technique of opening the heart and latching the coffin quite similar to The coffin was discovered at Keo Lam cave in Lung Phay village, Chi Minh commune, Trang Dinh district, Lang Son in 2016. Based on the specimen, it is possible that this artifact was about 300-400 years ago. ” Mr. Kien said. “The form of ancient burial is quite unique in the cave, in Vietnam, it has only been discovered in three provinces of Thanh Hoa, Son La, and Lang Son.” He Nong Duc Kien ,Director of Lang Son Museum According to Mr. Kien, the discovery of graves at Phja Mon cave are important historical documents, contributing to scientific research for archaeologists, ethnographers, in many fields of history and human history. race, creed. Through it, we can lift the mysterious veil of the ancient tomb, sketching out the economic and social situation of the ethnic people of Lang in ancient times. Mr. Kien said, on April 23, 2021, the survey team including leaders of the cultural industry, the Museum and the People’s Committee of Van Lang district came to the scene. However, because the road to Phja Mon cave is very difficult, having to use a climbing ladder from the top of the mountain is very dangerous and unsafe, and on this occasion the COVID-19 epidemic broke out again, so the work must be done. stop. “We are thinking of hiring an expedition team with specialized machinery to go into the cave to collect artifacts for research. But in the immediate future, in order to manage and protect the artifacts in their original state, it is recommended that local authorities at all levels step up propaganda work and take measures to protect the integrity of antiques,” said Mr. Kien.

Mr. Trong said that in this area, thunderstorms in the natural grasslands are divided into 2 types: thunderstorms and thunderstorms. Thunderstorms are larger than thunderstorms, but they hide very deep underground, so they are difficult to hunt. Therefore, thunderstorms hunt more. A thunderstorm has just been hunted After nearly a dozen rains at the beginning of the season, the field was covered with thin grass. Just a few steps, they easily found the cave. With their experience, these people immediately distinguish between cool caves (temporary shelter for thunderstorms) and extrusion caves (where thunderstorms are present). Less than 20 strokes of the pickaxe, tracing the nooks and crannies of the cave through a tree, Trong’s group found a swarm of incense. In less than a morning, Mr. Trong’s group hunted 40 greasy thunderstorms. “After many months of sheltering in a cave, at the beginning of the rainy season, thunderstorms begin to eat young grass, so they are fattest and easiest to catch. The sandy soil in their burrows is also softer thanks to the rain seeping down” – he Trong said. For a long time, thunderstorm has been considered a famous specialty of the sandy land of Binh Thuan because it can process many delicious dishes such as grilling, mixing vegetables or cooking pink melon soup. Thunderstorm meat, especially thunderstorms that live in sandy soil, are tough and fragrant when grilled with moderate charcoal. Currently, due to the trend of urbanization, natural specialties are less and less, so the movement of raising meat in rural areas of Binh Thuan is appearing to meet the needs of diners. The meat must be raised for about 1 year, with a weight of 3-4 heads/kg, usually sold for 600,000 – 700,000 VND. Natural thunderstorm weight is usually smaller, from 20-30 individuals/kg. Natural thunderstorm meat is better than farmed, so it is often kept by local people for food processing, rarely sold. COMPANY UNIT

After that, the group stopped for lunch before wearing seat belts and climbed down to the mouth of Son Doong cave. Although I still had a lot of confusion in handling situations, I finally set foot on the cave floor. With its majestic looks and giant size, the store surprised the whole group. From here, the group continued to cross many underground streams. The water is flowing fast, the porters have to stand in line to reduce the water strength, helping the group pass through safely. However, I boldly swim through this stream. In the afternoon, the delegation arrived at the first campsite of Son Doong cave. From here, you can look to sinkhole 1, also known as “Dinosaur’s Void”. This sinkhole was formed as part of the cave ceiling collapsed thousands of years ago. After dinner, I went to bed early because the day 2 itinerary was quite tiring. Day 3: Garden of Eden – Beach camp 2 Garden of Eden and Hole 2 is the most impressive place in this journey. From the very beginning, the group had to overcome very high and slippery rock slopes, so down quickly. You have to wriggle through many narrow rocky niches to reach sinkhole 1 – “Dinosaur’s Vape”. Continue to go deep and climb the rope over some steep rocks to get to the other side of the sinkhole 1. From here, you can capture the magnificent scenery of Son Doong cave. The group stops for lunch to prepare to conquer “Garden of Eden” at the second sinkhole. Because there is a sinkhole, light can enter the cave, creating a diverse vegetation. After exploring the forest, the group rested at camp No. 2 and continued to go into the dark cave to learn about the unique creatures, admire the masterpieces of stalactites. Finally, the group returned to the campsite, had dinner and rest, ending the third day. Day 4: The Vietnam Wall The last day, the group wore seat belts to conquer the Vietnamese Wall.

Hunting for barb – like catfish, famous and famous along the majestic Da Giang river – is a hobby and also a profession that brings a good source of income for fishermen living on the lake bed of Da river. Da river barb is increasingly rare, so the price is quite expensive, up to half a million VND per kg. There are fishermen who have pursued fishing on the Da River for many years. Until now, the people of the lake bed caught these fishes by way of night fishing. This method of fighting takes a lot of effort, sometimes hundreds of hooks can be dropped overnight to get a few dozen. The trait of catfish is like barramundi or in caves, they can stay in the cave for months without foraging, so it is not easy to catch these sharp barbs. Meet large ferocious fish, they pull both hooks and kicks into the cave, so fishermen often lose their hooks. Barbs also have a hunting season, not year round. From March, the barbs began to eat out (from the cave) to follow the flock. On the Da River, barfish usually come from the confluence of the river. Prongs mainly hit nets, besides fishing and gabion. Currently, many farmers living on the lake bed of Da River have begun to pay attention to and learn about barren fish farming. Barbs have a smooth, scaleless body, flat head, flattened body and tail, with 4 pairs of antennae, a muzzle. Barbs are not large in size, usually less than 1kg, those weighing 3-4kg are very rare. Barbs have delicious and firm meat so they are preferred by many consumers./.

Participants in the “Deep Time” study emerged from the Lombrives Cave after 40 days underground. Photo: AP. After 40 days of voluntary isolation, on April 24, a group of volunteers consisting of 15 people participating in a scientific experiment called Deep Time came out of the vast Lombrives cave in southwestern France. They consisted of eight men and seven women living in the deep, dark and wet caves to help researchers understand how humans adapt to drastic changes in conditions and habitats. They have no watches, no sunlight, and have no contact with the outside world. With bright smiles on their pale faces, 15 volunteers left the Lombrives cave in cheering applause. They must wear special glasses to protect their eyes after long periods of time in the dark. When returning to the ground, all the volunteers wore special glasses to avoid shock to the light. Photo: AP. Marina Lancon, 33, one of seven female members in the test, said: “This is like being pressed on an emergency pause button.” Ms. Marina still wanted to be able to stay in the cave for a few more days, but she also said she was happy to see the wind blowing in her face again and to hear birds singing in the trees in the French Pyréneés. And she said, in a few days she has no plans to reopen her smartphone to hope to avoid a “too brutal” return to real life. The group of volunteers began to return from the ground. Photo: AP. For 40 days and nights, the team lived and explored the caves as part of the Deep Time project. There is no sunlight inside, the temperature is 10 degrees C and the relative humidity is 100 percent. The cave dwellers had no contact with the outside world, had no pandemic updates, nor any contact information with friends or family. Scientists at the Human Adaptation Institute leading the 1.2 million euros ($ 1.5 million) “Deep Time” project, said this experiment will help them better understand how people adapt to drastic changes in conditions and habitats. Because they don’t have a clock, team members keep an eye on their circadian clock to know when to wake up, go to bed, and eat. They count their days not by hours, but by their sleep cycle. Therefore, Project Director, Mr. Christian Clot was surprised that the time in the cave was over: “We think it’s only been 30 days.” The estimate of one team member is only 23 days. Members participating in the Deep Time project study speak during the press conference after returning from the Lombrives Cave after 40 days underground. Photo: AP. Working with laboratories in France and Switzerland, the scientists tracked the 15 members’ sleep patterns, social interactions, and behavioral responses via sensors. This sensor is designed as a small thermometer inside a capsule that participants swallow like a pill. It measures body temperature and transmits data to a computer until it is naturally cleared out. On April 23, the scientists told the study subjects they would be out soon. After the 40-day challenge, 2/3 of the group still wished to stay in the cave for a little more time. Photo: AP. On April 24, when they were released from the cave, although the participants looked tired, two-thirds of the participants expressed a wish to stay underground a little longer to complete group projects. At the beginning of the expedition, said Benoit Mauvieux, a biologist involved in the study. “Our future as humans on this planet will flourish,” said Clot after exiting the cave. “We have to learn to better understand how our brains are able to find new solutions, in any situation.”

Illustration. The mudskipper is also called a tree climbing fish because they can stay on land for a long time with exceptional respiration.Additionally, the mudskipper is more special than other fish in that it can dive 5 to 5 depths. 10 minutes or so high up out of the water.

Inside Krizna jama, a place for tourists traveling by boat. Photo: National Geographic Where the rivers mysteriously disappeared With 20,271 square kilometers and 2 million inhabitants, Slovenia provides the world to more than 20 famous caves out of more than 8,000 karstic formations called jamas. Here, it is easy to see with the naked eye the majestic rivers suddenly mysteriously disappearing into the ground, then forming the system of underground paths through the limestone mountains forming caves. There are also traces of cave dwellers of nearly 5,000 years ago, autographs of an expedition in 1557 left on the cliffs of Krizna cave, and since then cave tourism in Slovenia has flourished. from the seventeenth century. Krizna jama, birthplace of cave exploration. Exploration of karstic limestone caves is very dangerous, even with taking pictures in a world completely different from space under the sun. Robbie Shone, British photographer and cave researcher, spent 10 years taking pictures of Kacna caves. The window entry was 250 feet (250 feet) higher than the ceiling, and an additional 250 feet was added to the underground river, the common pillar with up to 500 free-fall, up and down thanks to ropes and lifters. The key to the Slovenian cave system lies in the rivers, when hidden when present, the most famous of which are the rivers Reka, Rak, and Pivka. River caves are not uncommon, however, there are only some karst landscapes where river caves reach as vast as in Slovenia. The karst plateau forms a special geographical area here, it extends from the Adriatic coast in the south to the Vipava Valley, forming a corridor connecting the limestone regions of northeast Italy. Beneath the village of Škocjan are caves of the same name, a UNESCO heritage site, in which an entire river – the river Reka – seems to be swallowed up by the earth. From the ground, the river suddenly plunged into a straw (siphon) in the rock, continuing to winding along underground currents, then emerged 24 miles away near Italy’s Monfalcone before joining the Timavo River into the sea. Adriatic. Where people live with caves More than anywhere, Slovenia is not only the birthplace of the cave tourism industry, but also a place of symbiosis between people and a special geological structure. The Italians and Slovenes living along the limestone corridors have created a unique Teran grape for the famous iron-rich red wine. Caves have played many roles throughout history. They used them as a source of water, a refrigerator, and even an ammunition storage room during the war. During the Ice Age, Krizna jama was an important bear sanctuary – some 2,000 bear skeletons remain. Today, river caves are important habitats for many species of animals, some of which are endangered. Postojna jama is Slovenia’s largest and most touristy cave, complete with trains that take you through tunnels and fossil-filled labyrinth halls and pristine caves. pretty. Nearby Postojna and Planinska jama are home to the proteus anguinus, an endangered species of underwater cave salamander affectionately known as the “human fish”. During Christmas, a scene of the Child God was erected in Postojna and more than 500 people gathered in a stone hermitage to witness a festival performance staged between stalactites and stalagmites. Postojna jama is completely designed with trains taking tourists through the tunnels … Photo: postojnska-jama.eu Here you can choose the right level of cave travel for you. The Postojna Cave is considered the largest jade, where the cave train will take visitors to magnificent sculptures, stalactites, stalagmites and halls. The beautiful Škocjan Cave is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Here you can see the deepest and largest underground gorges in the world. And more than that, behind the cave doors is a place for travelers who have a lot of courage to explore. Krizna Cave impresses with a series of emerald green underground lakes, on which visitors can sail to magnificent limestone halls under the safety guidance of experienced explorers. The birthplace of cave exploration The history of cave exploration is associated with Krizna jama located in the Cerknica Polje limestone belt near the Loz settlement. The length of the cave is up to 8,273m, of which about 600m is arranged for regular tours of tourists, the rest is for explorers. In fact, Krizna is considered one of the most attractive tourist caves in Slovenia, due to the large underground lakes with clear water formed after dams of quartz stone and decorated in various styles. way by rolling rocks. One of the tourist attractions is the bear cave. Currently, Krizna jama is under the management of the Krizna Cave Caving Society, and is here by guided boat travel. The first inscription of the Krizna expedition engraved on a cliff, in 1557. Krizna’s original name was Loz Cold Cave (Mrzla jama pri Lozu), changed to Cold Cave under Mount Krizna (Mrzla jama pod Krizno goro), and now takes the name of the Cross Church located on the hill given to the cave system. , called Cerkev Svetega kriza. The first inhabitants of Krizna cave were in the metallic era with many relics including pottery, but their ancestors lived in caves belonging to the Paleolithic period, around 2,800 BC. Perhaps this was the reason why the Krizna expeditions were so intriguing, and the expedition’s first autograph inscribed on the cliff 1557. The expeditions continued through the centuries as a kind of discovery tourism. , but it was not until 1832 that an official report was produced by JJ Tobin, and in 1838 J. Cerar provided the first descriptive sketch. The discoveries weren’t really easy, and it wasn’t until 1962 that a group of high school students from Ljubljana Šiška crossed the first lake under the guidance of Professor Prezelj. Explorers from Slovenian and foreign clubs spent decades, from 1970 to 1990 searching, discovering new cave passages and halls, and especially diving to survey pipes. suction of the Kittlow well. Measurements, surveys and expeditions were promoted between the 1990s and 2003 through the Speleological society of Karlovec and the Assotiation of Krizna cave lovers. They began cleaning the caves, photographing it, and discovering new tunnels with deep diving, searching for new straws. And today, cave tourism has become a unique economic activity in Slovenia.

However, after establishing his own fashion status, in the following days, he usually walks a show for three years, and he has an indisputable mentality for his career.

At his peak, he chose to travel around the world, indifferent to fame and fortune, and gradually reduced his workload.

Today, he is more devoted to environmental protection. He bought 45 acres of land on a sparsely populated and secluded island, became a landlord, saved an endangered cedar tree in the primeval forest, and devoted himself to ecological research. He also founded a biodiversity research institute called Cedar Coast Field Station.

Simon Nessman has a sense of responsibility to nature, so he decided to use his youth to give back to nature and go to the forest every day to deworm and fertilize this cedar tree.

inOn the small island, he, like all his neighbors, is not drunk or obsessed. He only has nothing to do with his backyard, farming and raising chickens. Everyone enjoys ordinary life in nature.

I support him very much, because it is not enough to have a beautiful appearance and a beautiful body. The unique personality, the continuous improvement of expressiveness, and the amazing works that have been preserved have finally become memorable and missed. reason. Life is always like this, there will always be bleak after the highlights, but the traces left behind are indelible.

I want to be with him, raise chickens and grow vegetables during the day, watch the moon under the sea at night, and return to the garden with him.

Ho Tay embankment, section passing Quang Khanh street, is used by people to grow clean vegetables. Every day, Ms. Nguyen Thi Hoa, a native of Vinh Phuc (a housekeeper for a family on Quang Khanh street) regularly 2 times to water and care for the vegetable garden in the morning and afternoon. The vegetable garden here is very convenient for watering because it is close to the edge of the lake. The soil is poured into concrete holes like the rock-hole cultivation of the Ha Giang people. The guard of a villa on Quang Khanh street also takes advantage of his free time to grow vegetables to improve daily meals. There are all kinds of vegetables such as amaranth, water spinach, spinach, basil, cabbage … depending on the season. Ms. Hoa said that in order to have land to grow vegetables, she had to buy 5,000 VND / bucket, then put it in each concrete hole. Planting right on the edge of the lake, vegetables are always green because water is always enough. Without using plant protection drugs, vegetables here are only fertilized with microbiological fertilizers, so every day, Ms. Hoa has to pull grass by herself and catch worms. Harvest time depends on the growth rate of each vegetable. Water spinach will be harvested after about 1 month from sowing, amaranth after 2 weeks, vegetables usually just over 1 week are already picked … Taking advantage of about 100 meters of the embankment to grow vegetables, Ms. Hoa has enough vegetables for herself and her host family. Sometimes the vegetables grow too fast, she even has to give. Unlike vegetable gardens grown in the style of cultivation on Ha Giang rocky plateau, vegetable gardens on the bank of West Lake embankment, passing Tu Hoa street, are divided into beds like normal vegetable gardens.

A section of West Lake embankment on Quang Khanh Street has been used by people living around this area to grow clean vegetables for about 2 years.

The vegetable garden here is plentiful and diverse in varieties from leafy vegetables, short-term vegetables to spice vegetables. Because it is close to the edge of the lake, the watering problem is always solved.

Mr. Luu (security guard at an apartment in Quang Khanh, Tay Ho) said that there are several families here growing vegetables together. Every day, in the early morning and late afternoon, people will water and take care of vegetables.

The soil is poured into concrete holes like the rock-hole cultivation of the Ha Giang people.

Vegetables here are grown according to the season, depending on the type of vegetables that will be harvested after a few weeks.

Leafy vegetables such as spinach, spinach, amaranth … give quick harvest but quickly run out. Therefore, people here like to intercrop spices because they produce more and last longer.

In addition to watering, people here have to constantly catch worms, and snails destroy every day.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Hoa, from Vinh Phuc (as a housekeeper for a family on Quang Khanh street) regularly watered and cared for the vegetable garden twice in the morning and afternoon.

Ms. Hoa said that people had to buy land for 5,000 VND / bucket and then pour it into the rocks to grow vegetables.

“Growing vegetables like this is very difficult because the amount of soil is less, the nutrients are also low, so the vegetables grow slowly but not too large. But when growing by themselves like this, we are more assured because the vegetables are self-grown” – Ms. Hoa adds.

Taking advantage of about 100 meters of the embankment to grow vegetables, Ms. Hoa has enough vegetables for herself and her host family. Sometimes the vegetables grew too fast, she even had to give them away.

Without using chemical fertilizers or plant protection drugs, vegetable growers here have to take care of themselves from weeding, catching deep to applying microbiological fertilizers to ensure absolute clean vegetables.

This impressive cave and chapel is located in Sedlec, about an hour from Prague (Czech Republic) by train. This is a peaceful and beautiful town.

Sedlec caves are located under the All Saints cemetery church.

The cave itself is a Roman Catholic chapel.

In 1870, the Schwarzenberg family of the aristocracy hired a famous carpenter, František Rint, to turn the skeletons in the chapel into works of art.

This is the Schwarzenberg family crest.

The entire chapel is decorated with motifs made of human bones.

Before rearranging, Rint and the workers cleaned up the bones.

Then he turned them into things like ceiling lights.

The huge ceiling lamp is one of the most impressive parts of the chapel, which is said to have every bone in the human body.

Sometimes pieces of bone are used for decoration …

Or form artifacts commonly found in a chapel.

They sometimes tell legends, such as a Turk whose eyes were gouged out by a crow.

Human bones form the framework for the traditional statues.

They can also be combined with other materials.

They always bring an element of obsession for the scene.

Each corner of the chapel has giant skeletons.

They seem mysterious and intimidating when you get up close.

People often leave coins for good luck.

Rint left an impression on his signature – in human bones.

Reaching off the epidemic season

Tens of thousands of ships along the coast of Vietnam are still stretching day and night to exploit seafood in traditional fishing grounds. The fishermen who go out to sea to stick to the sea not only make a living but also make living milestones, affirming the sovereignty over the sacred islands of the country.

At 5:00 a.m. on the first day of March, 2021, from Nam Du fishing port (An Son island commune, Kien Hai district, Kien Giang province), captain Le Quang Anh’s ship (Hai Anh) pulled anchors out to sea, heading straight to the fisherman. Ca Mau school – Kien Giang. This is considered one of the largest fishing grounds in our country because this area has currents carrying many plankton, along with a rich and abundant source of seafood. At the same time, this area also has a shallow continental shelf, many estuaries and tidal flats that are favorable for fishing.

The achievement of the sea after the tough nets.

On this trip, Mr. Hai Anh’s boat used ruffled nets. This form of fishing makes little disturbance to the benthic biota. Catched products are aquatic species with high economic value such as mackerel, tuna, herring … After 3 hours of breaking and reaching the sea, the boat has reached the traditional fishing ground and began to float the nets. Waiting time to pull the first batch of fish takes 4-6 hours. Captain Hai Anh and the crew on the boat took advantage of the nets to take a nap at night.

Seafaring in the South season is relatively mild, the wind is gentle, but thunderstorms are always sudden. Therefore, even though it is a “gentle” sea, the danger is unpredictable.

For nearly 2 years, the COVID-19 epidemic has been raging, affecting seriously consumption volume and price. Hai Anh ship’s seafood specializes in supplying 3 large restaurants in Phu Quoc. Influence of the disease, few tourists, and the restaurant was in a bad state, it forced prices down very low. There was a return sea trip, the price hit the bottom but the restaurant still could not consume it, the rest Hai Anh had to bring the termites to the fish sauce company at the “afternoon market” price.

The master “hears the fish”

Nguyen Xuan Thang (Tu Thang, 45 years old) has been a fisherman since the time his hair was still cropped, over 30 years up to now. Mr. Thang is a good “listening fish” hand that any ship wants to pull him away. After a sea trip of more than 20 days from Hai Anh ship, Mr. Tu Thang just returned home to throw the children fresh fish from the sea, took a few more clothes, then rushed to the dock to board the captain’s boat to scratch. Year of Singing. This time the rafting ship is expected to stay at sea for 30 days to return to shore, with crew of 8 people on board. The number of rake net is too small, the ship should have 3 more excellent fishermen, but they are stuck at Truong Sa fishing ground in Khanh Hoa sea.

Sewing nets, arranging nets to prepare for a night of fish hunting.

Scratching rake (also known as drag net) is a key fishing method of the fishery. The output of aquatic products caught by the drag net is estimated at over 50% of the total production. The fishing trawl fishery lives in the bottom layer, the seabed is relatively flat, the depth is usually 20-100m. The most important step of pounding depends on your ability to guess the flow of the fish. This is based entirely on a “listening to fish” player like Tu Thang.

The first quality of a person who “listens to fish” is to swim well and dive like a fish. With these two abilities, Tu Thang has been a “valedictorian” since the age of 20. On this voyage, Tu Thang’s boat prioritizes grouper and squid fishing. Grouper is known as a rare and high-priced seafood species. To hunt grouper flow, Tu Thang first had to dive into the sea, to find coral reefs and caves to explore. The grouper is an aggressive and very clever species, so it is difficult for humans to approach even from a distance.

Instead of looking directly at the flow of fish, Tu Thang will check the food carcasses of the fish left on the seabed and the smoothness of the rock cavities. Wherever the reef is cloudy, there is a lot of flora and small animals, there are grouper. Then, the diver pressed his ears to the rock niches to hear the water flowing around him. If the water is gurgling, then there must be grouper flocks around.

These signs, only experienced fish listeners like Tu Thang can feel. After correctly determining the flow of fish, the rake net will surround and sweep. The grouper, no matter how cunning and cunning, are still caught by “fangs” of pounding.

Mr. Tu prepares for the diving phase to find fish.

After each batch of grouper, the rake net is greatly torn by the sharp teeth and puncture of the fish’s fins. The mesh stitching takes a lot of time, requires meticulousness and patience. When night fell, all the sailors on board began to scratch the bottom floor squid. Like that, they worked until dawn the next day.

Every half a month, cargo ships will go to the fishing grounds to buy seafood. Trading on the sea is not like any other market, because both sellers and traders are fishermen for a long time, they understand the sea too well. They did not pay the price, what the price was, the seller just smiled and happily transferred the fish to the ship. The fish shipments are full, the ship is ready to donate to the collectors a few kilograms each, on the contrary, every time a failure, the boat buys happily “tip” more money tea.

After each transaction, the crew on the ship is immediately divided the remuneration. Their work is calculated according to the output in the form of “let’s eat together, lose together”. They can send money to buy to bring home or keep with them, have the opportunity to visit the island to refuel or shelter from storms will use the money to spend ashore.

The sea still sings the song on the waves

In recent years, the Kien Giang – Ca Mau fishing ground has been “poor” gradually. The fishing boats are more and more, so there is competition for channels and fishing grounds. The income of the sailors decreased gradually, so they went to search for a new land. Part of life is about life, but much of it wants to freely waving around in the vast sea and sky of the country.

Truong Sa, ever since has become a call of love tightly squeezed into the heart of every fisherman. Mr. Tu Thang said that at the beginning of 2021, he also had a trip to Truong Sa with his colleagues in the fishing village of Bich Dam (Khanh Hoa).

The trip in the fish-up season (the fish species migrating in the Southern waters began moving to the North), although hard and high-risk, made Mr. Tu Thang more excited. Because, the ship’s captain is the benefactor who saved his life 11 years ago in Truong Sa, when his ship crashed at sea. Remembering that night, Mr. Thang still choked. In those days, the boats went to the net, the fishing tools were rudimentary, but not modernly improved as now. The sea in June is relatively peaceful, on the mainland it is in the hot summer season, so no one thinks the night sea is windswept, such a terrible tornado.

The small ship is still standing in front of the ocean winds.

The ship was swept directly by a tornado, in a split second the deck burst into many pieces, the river-lamp fell into the sea, the side of the ship burst out, water flooded into the compartment. Only about 5 minutes, the ship rolled and turned upside down. Six sailors hugged plastic cans, tires plunged into the dark one-color sea. The cry for help faded away, weakened, then only the very light breathing of the exhausted people remained. Luckily Tu Thang was able to hold the tire, then he was too tired to fit into a small circle, trying to hold his arms and legs. The other brothers, holding onto plastic cans that could not stand the wind, let go of their hands, then sank into the seabed.

After eight famous floating uncertainties in the middle of the sea, at the dawn of the next day, Mr. Thang was now exhausted, and suddenly felt a strong hand grasp his body. When he woke up, he found himself lying in a warm blanket on a dry cabin, and turning his head sideways to find a familiar colleague on board the old train. Mr. Thang hugged you and cried.

So only 2 people were saved during that fateful trip. Returning to the shore, Tu Thang was taken care of by the family of captain Le Tan Cuong until the day he was well.

Tu Thang wanted to accept Captain Cuong as his brother, but Mr. Cuong just laughed, saying that Vietnamese fishermen from all ages are brothers and sisters. Mr. Cuong told Tu Thang not to be too fussy about the past, but to stick to the sea, love the sea and ready to help anyone in distress at sea. Because of that teaching, the love of the sea in Tu Thang’s heart is always deep, and in hardship remains intact.

Because of the deep love, but only Captain Cuong called out an hour, Mr. Thang was ready to go, leaving without a moment of hesitation. A year, Mr. Thang goes to Truong Sa beach at least 1 trip, each year at most 5 trips. The rest of the time, he returned to his hometown in Kien Giang, following a friend’s ship here and there, wandering in the sea.

The seafarers live by the pride and dignity of the man. Human love at sea is no longer a matter of debate. Because of that, many fishermen with heavy debt cannot leave the sea. Captain Nam Hat, despite turning 60 years old with nearly 50 years of fighting the ocean, is still firmly on the steering wheel before many seasons of rough seas. All his life, Mr. Nam Hat traveled throughout the seas from Hoang Sa, Truong Sa to the Southwest. Many times life was fragile in front of the ship, due to natural disasters and human ears, but he never wavered. To him, if he had to die on the sacred sea and sky of the Fatherland, he still stubbornly accepted it.
