In February 1872, a group of monks broke into the royal palace, hoping to see the emperor. As a result, half of the monks were killed by royal soldiers. They understood what was waiting for them in that infiltration but decided to do it anyway. To them, the repeal of the Emperor’s centuries-old ban on meat eating was terrible for Japan. Why did the Japanese never eat meat? According to the Atlas Obscura , for about 12 centuries, the cherry people hardly touched a piece of meat. Especially beef. This type of meat is taboo. Some temples have enacted a law that those who eat must fast for more than 100 days to atone for their sins. Prohibitions can be mentioned as people who eat wild goats, wolves, rabbits, dogs or raccoons must repent for 5 days before going to the temple. People who eat pigs and deer must repent for 60 days. Meanwhile, people who eat cows and horses must repent for up to 150 days. Eating meat of beneficial animals such as buffaloes and cows used to be taboo in Japan. Photo: Atlas Obscura. This seemingly absurd story begins in the 6th century. Buddhism was introduced to Japan from Korea. During this period, the Japanese still ate meat. They like venison, wild boar and many others. Wild meat dishes are indispensable in aristocratic banquets. However, according to the Buddhist concept, humans can be reincarnated into other beings, including animals. Therefore, when we eat meat, we are likely eating our own ancestors. This is truly horrifying for people of faith. In 675, Emperor Tenmu issued a decree banning the eating of beef, horses, dogs, chickens and monkeys in time for the farming season (April-September). Over time, this ban was extended throughout the year to all meats. In fact, even before the ban, meat was not an essential part of the lives of most people. Japan is an island nation. New fish and seafood are the most popular items. “Protein is supplied mainly by rice, not meat or milk,” historian Naomishi Ishiga once wrote. Breeding in the island nation is very difficult. Therefore, eating animals useful for agriculture is also discouraged. Although the ban was issued, not everyone obeyed it, especially the nobility. Many records show that they once sent pork, beef and milk as offerings to the emperor. In the 18th century, the Hikone clan sent a gift of beef soaked in sake to the shoguns. Gifts are packaged in packages labeled “medicine”. According to the Atlas Obscura Although banned, meat is still considered a food with medicinal properties. Even monks sometimes eat meat on prescription. In addition, certain foods such as birds, dolphins or whales are still acceptable. Fish is considered the exception. Photo: Atlas Obscura. “Buddhism has commandments about reincarnation as well as forbidding the eating of mammals. The strong faith makes many people think that if they eat mammals, after they die, they will be reincarnated as them. On the rare occasions of eating meat, the Japanese cook it in an open-air stove. After eating, they must avoid looking at the altar so as not to mistake spiritual contamination,” Ishige wrote. The Change of Emperor Meiji Around the 16th century, Portuguese missionaries set foot in the country of cherry. They tell the people here that drinking milk is like drinking blood and the ban on beef is absurd. Lord Toyotomi Hideyoshi even asked the missionaries a lot about this issue. He wondered why it was possible to eat beef when it was a useful animal for the farm. Emperor Meiji and his reforms changed long-held notions of meat in Japan. Photo: Atlas Obsucra. Change only really came at the end of the 19th century. When Emperor Meiji came to power, he advocated changing the political structure, opening up to the outside, quickly absorbing Western technology. “During this period, many people began to think that the fact that the Japanese were physically inferior to Westerners was because they did not eat meat and dairy foods,” Ishige wrote. The Meiji government began to remove taboos in the ancient diet. Meat and dairy production companies began to appear. The emperor himself also ate meat to welcome the new year (1872) to convince people to give up the concept of not eating meat. This has led to protests from Buddhists and farmers (mostly dependent on animals for farming). Also in 1872, an edict was issued. It reads: “Beef is a nutritious food. However, many people still try to thwart our efforts to Westernize by clinging to ancient beliefs. This is against the wishes of the emperor. “. The Japanese are no longer afraid to eat meat. Photo: The CEO Magazine. After a long time, the emperor’s efforts also succeeded. Japan opened its doors to the world, importing and learning the meat dishes of Korea, China and the West. Before long, Western-style meat restaurants filled the city. Japanese restaurants also started selling medicinal beef stew (which later evolved into the famous sukiyaki). Up to now, meat has become an essential part of Japanese meals, just like sushi.

1. Oak flooring This is the hardwood commonly used for traditional flooring. The wood itself is durable, but the color can fade over time. For this reason, if you use oak flooring, you need to maintain it after a long time of use. 2. Mahogany flooring Classic and elegant mahogany ranks among the best hardwoods for flooring. It is both durable and water resistant. Besides, its bold colors are a great investment for a timeless design. But, all of those benefits definitely come with a hefty price tag, and this can be seen as a downside if you’re on a tight budget. 3. Lyptus wood floor Although lyptus is a less popular choice for hardwood floors, it offers a number of benefits to the room; like exotic appearance and durability. However, its quality and style are underestimated compared to some popular options like Teak or mahogany. 4. Ash wood floor Ash wood floors come in many different types and styles, so you have many options for designing your floor. In it, its colors and patterns have light light shades. This also means that you need more care and cleaning to keep your ash floors in good condition. 5. Hardwood floors Hardwood floors are your best bet when it comes to rustic design and also demanding timeless looks and durability. However, this type of wood is also quite hard and strong, making it more difficult to install. For this reason, the cost of installing pecan floors is often higher than that of other hardwood floors. 6. Pine wood floor Although classified as hardwoods, pine can be classified as softwood or solid wood. In addition to being cheap, pine also offers rich colors, especially this type of wood will fade over time. But also because of the soft wood characteristics, pine wood floors are often dented or easily scratched. 7. Cherry wood floor Cherry wood is less durable than most hardwood floors, so cherry wood floors are more susceptible to scratches. 8. Brazilian Cherry Wood Flooring Similar to all cherry wood species, Brazilian cherries are elegantly grained with a reddish or pinkish color.

Walnut wood flooring Walnut is considered to be the best laminate flooring for any home. It is durable and never goes out of style. You can also find a wide range of walnut floor patterns, from simple light to exotic dark. The only problem with using walnut flooring is probably its high price which can affect your construction budget. 10. Rosewood flooring In general, rosewood is appreciated for its unique grain, wide color range and distinctive aroma. However, because this type of wood has properties that are more suitable for furniture than flooring, finding and installing this type of wood flooring will be quite difficult. 11. Maple flooring The delicate wood grain of maple makes it easy for homeowners to install floors in both small and large areas. Not only that, but maple is also highly durable, so it is one of the most chosen woods for installing hardwood floors. Even so, you will find it difficult to change the color of the hardwood floor. 12. Bamboo flooring Bamboo is a great choice for those who want to bring a natural, traditional atmosphere into the room. Once installed, bamboo floors can be sanded and refinished to retain quality over time. However, because of its soft and termite properties, this type of floor is not suitable for humid areas. 13.

Cork floor Cork flooring provides a pleasant surface to walk on due to its natural warmth. This is a high-quality wood that can resist fire and mold for a long time. Even so, cork is not a good choice for kitchen floors as it can be easily stained by oil or liquid spills. 18. Eucalyptus wood floor In addition to being affordable, eucalyptus flooring is easy to install and requires only a little maintenance. This type of flooring is also safe and resistant to all types of moisture. However, in some countries like the US, eucalyptus is not widely grown, so they may have a harder time finding this type of flooring than Vietnam. 19.

Japanese cherry blossoms in full bloom, setting the record for the earliest blooming time of 1,200 years Cherry blossoms, also known as ‘sakura’, the symbol of Japan in bloom, the country is experiencing one of the best times of the year. White and pink flowers bloom throughout the cities and mountainous regions, and thousands of petals cover the ground. For more than a thousand years, Japanese people who have maintained the tradition of seeing cherry blossoms often experience a period of ‘peak full bloom’ only a few days. People often flock to popular places to take photos, camping right below the beautiful blooming trees. But this year, the cherry blossom season comes early and fades quickly. In downtown Kyoto, cherry blossoms are recorded in full bloom for the first time in the history of 1,200 years. Besides the joy of seeing cherry blossoms early, scientists also warn it is a sign of the ‘climate crisis’ that is threatening ecosystems everywhere. Yasuyuki Aono, a researcher at Osaka Prefecture University, collected records from Kyoto city, from historical documents, diaries that the cherry blossom season in downtown Kyoto this year is the year. as early as 1,200 years. In Tokyo, this is the second recorded early blooming time. The last time cherry blossoms peaked at this time of year was 1953, almost 70 years ago. Dr. Lewis Ziska, from Columbia University’s environmental health science, said: “As global temperatures warm, the last frosts of spring appear earlier and flowering occurs early. than”. The timing of peak blooms varies from year to year depending on many factors including weather and precipitation but the recent trend has been ‘earlier and earlier’. “Cherry blossoms are very sensitive to temperature,” said Yasuyuki Aono. Flowering and blooming may be earlier or later depending on the temperature. The winter is very cold, but spring comes surprisingly fast and warm. Young shoots wake up after a period of full rest. ” However, early blooming cherry blossoms are just the tip of the iceberg, a worldwide phenomenon that can destabilize the natural systems and economies of nations. There are two sources of increased heat that are the main drivers of earlier blooms, urbanization and climate change. With increasing urbanization, cities tend to become warmer than surrounding rural areas, known as the heat island effect. But there’s a bigger reason why climate change is causing temperatures in the region and around the world to soar. The day when cherry blossoms bloom early not only appear in Japan, but also occur in some other areas such as Washington, USA. And these earlier blooming days are not only a matter of tourists scrambling to see the flowers in full bloom before their petals fall, but they also have a long-term impact on the entire ecosystem and threaten the existence of many species. The effects of climate change are not limited to cherry blossoms. Many other plant species also experience changes in their lifecycle, which can even drastically affect the stability of their ecosystems. In some areas, farmers may have to change the type of crop. Some climates become too hot for what the tree can tolerate to thrive. Meanwhile, other climates experience more floods, more snow, and increased humidity in the air, which limits the plants that can be planted.

Compared with older women, don’t blindly follow the trend, but beat the opponent in the details, otherwise it will only give people a sense of sight. Recently, a group of photos of Li Ruotong’s sister is enough to illustrate that details are especially important. With the cherry blossom pink skirt, the effect of age reduction is full. Let’s take a look.

Ruo Tong’s age-reducing look

Does Li Ruotong, who was born in the 1960s, really do not know how old he is? The whole set of styles chooses a clear tulle skirt in style, and the figure is also looming. It is also the feature of this tulle that solves the dull feeling of the original shape, but adds a touch of mystery; coupled with the rendering of cherry blossom pink, it is easy to get the age-reducing effect.

Modeling analysis:

①The color is fresh and tender

The lightly saturated cherry blossom pink creates a fresh and clean visual effect, mainly because there is no sense of cheapness in the market, and it is a good choice for older friends. At the same time, color is used to establish the character of the character-sweet atmosphere; the details of the exposed skin are also well grasped, avoiding the tacky feeling of large areas of light tones, but adding a touch of hazy beauty, and also weakening the public’s attention to the color of the clothes.

②Simple style

In terms of clothing styles, try to choose some simpler styles to prevent exaggerated dressing due to excessive pursuit of cuteness; secondly, for older women, it is also the most comfortable to embellish some other materials in a generous and decent way. Just like this set of pink and white tie-dye treatment, it is full of clarity, but it also adds a little sense of design. A touch of printing treatment on the chest also makes the whole look more unique, coupled with the sweet and light makeup of “Little Dragon Girl”, a lovely lady!

③Add cute elements appropriately

For some simple basic items, you can consider using some prints to add a sense of age reduction, such as exhaustion, tulle, polka dots, animal and plant prints, etc. can be used as sweet elements for embellishment. Some just the right details can also be exquisite and eye-catching.

Li Ruotong’s original outfits have always been online, and the editor chose a few sets of age-reducing styles to share with everyone.

OOTD 1: Fresh small sling + half-length trailing skirt

This group of styling combinations show Li Ruotong’s shoulder and neck lines and clavicle generously. The small sling on the upper body also shows the individual’s slim waist. The trailing skirt of the lower body may have a strong three-dimensional effect with petals embellishing the whole skirt, and it is also embellished with colorful details, which is as beautiful as a flower fairy.

OOTD 2: Shirt skirt

Among the countless outfits I have seen, more sisters wear shirt skirts as the basic inner wear. However, Li Ruotong’s landscape-style shirt skirt is also well controlled for outer wear. The waist seal is embellished as a dazzling detail, neat and capable without losing elegance, without a sense of monotony, while reducing the age, the good figure is also at a glance.

That’s all for today’s dressing introduction, have you learned it?

Under the swamp, cauliflower and mountain lilies bloom brightly and create a breathtaking sight. The road passes through the Azuma Mountains with breathtaking majestic landscapes in autumn foliage. Drive slowly through this road, visitors will have a panoramic view. This place was selected as one of the 100 most beautiful streets in Japan. This route stops working in winter. Shingu Kumano Shrine is considered as an important cultural property of Japan. Built in the Heian period, the temple’s architecture changes over time. Today, visitors can visit the cultural heritage of Fukushima and Japan preserved here. In addition, in the temple precinct there is an 800-year-old ginkgo tree, each autumn comes, the leaves change color and dye the surrounding space. Lake Goshikinuma, also known as Lake of Five Colors, is one of the most majestic landscapes in Fukushima. Each lake has its own color, from dark brown to cobalt green. Each season, the scenery of the lake has its own unique features, inspiring many photographers in Japan and around the world. Although it is the main venue for sports activities in Fukushima Prefecture, Azuma Sports Park has a very poetic natural landscape. In autumn, the ginkgo trees in the park change clothes with brilliant yellow colors, creating a very romantic street and attracts visitors. Ouchijuku ancient village is also a beautiful place every autumn and winter. Ouchijuku Snow Festival is a popular event, held in mid-February, with lots of exciting events such as parades, snow lanterns and fireworks. In winter, Tsuruga Castle is covered with a beautiful white snow carpet. In mid-February, the Aizu Erosoku Candle Festival is held, to showcase candles made by the skillful hands of local artisans. The image of the castle illuminated by thousands of candles is extremely magnificent, making visitors especially impressed. Mount Bandai and Lake Inawashiro: Mount Aizu Bandai is selected as one of the 100 most beautiful mountains in Japan. This is also an ideal place for visitors to enjoy hiking and mountain climbing. Inawashiro Lake is one of the 10 largest lakes in Japan, making it an ideal spot where swans can be seen in winter. Skiing is also a “specialty” in Fukushima. There is the Ski Park and Resort Alts – one of the largest ski resorts in the Tohoku region, with 29 ski courses divided according to different slope and challenge levels. There are many hot springs in Fukushima that have a long history of operation; such as Lizaka hot spring with 1,000 years old, Higashiyama hot spring with 1,300 years old. Soaking in hot mineral water is very beneficial for health, so this is an experience visitors should not miss when coming to Fukushima. Fukushima is a place where visitors can experience the training and life of a true samurai. This land is the home of the Bushido martial spirit, loyalty to the lord, ignoring death and defying defeat. For this reason, the culture and spirit of the samurai in the region are still deeply imprinted today. The Aizu Buke Yashiki Samurai residence is a museum vividly depicting the Samurai. The living rooms display models and artifacts that recreate scenes of ancient life. Through artifacts such as weapons, costumes and other objects used by the samurai, visitors will gain a clearer picture of their life./.

Try it once in your life, travel slowly and feel every single frame outside the train window to see how beautiful Vietnam really is … 1. Railways pass through Hai Van pass (Da Nang and Hue) Many people have experienced and confidently said that: The North – South railway line passing through Lang Co – Hai Van Pass is the most beautiful railway in Vietnam! Because this is the most unique route when one side leaned on the towering mountain, the other faced the deep blue sea, creating a very unique and rare scene. You can sit on the train and watch the sea scenery from Hai Van pass, along with the green patches of green forest. In the summer, the wild flower hills on either side of the train track are also in full bloom and paint a brilliant picture. The trains passing through the Lang Co – Hai Van pass railway often move at a very slow speed, about 15km / h, due to many bends and dangerous terrain. But also because of this, passengers on board can easily enjoy and watch the natural scenery around the legendary Hai Van pass. 2. Phung Hung train route In Asia, when it comes to “Chinatown”, people will immediately think of three very famous names that have appeared in the international newspaper. These are all places that give visitors a thrilling, but no less exciting, experience. The story of this Hanoi railway neighborhood once appeared in many foreign newspapers. In April 2014, the British newspaper Dailymail published an impressive series of photos of trains running across the crowded residential area in Hanoi. During the railway run through the city of Hanoi through many streets such as Phung Hung, Dien Bien Phu, Le Duan … visitors can visit and experience the food service, but only the section across Phung Hung Street is the most crowded. Railways over a hundred years old running through the old town of Hanoi have recently become an attractive tourist destination for tourists, especially foreigners. The dreamy images seem to be only in the movie There are still simple, intimate and rustic features of Hanoi people. 3. Tran Quy Cap train route in Da Lat Dalat city always has beautiful little corners and the train track on Tran Quy Cap Street is such a place. This place is especially beautiful and romantic when cherry blossoms bloom with sparkling pink colors in the season. In addition to cherry apricot, this place is also adorned by the bright yellow color of many wild flower bushes characteristic of the land of fog. Also because of the cherry blossom season, many corners of this train line make people think of the romantic atmosphere of the Japanese cherry blossom season. The train trips between these beautiful and peaceful natural scenery are unique sceneries that you have the opportunity to experience. Because of this beautiful scenery, many people have come here to take excellent check-in photos of Dalat. To get beautiful photos, the photographer needs to wait for the train schedule to reach Trai Mat station and the shooting time is only a few seconds. Therefore, to see these beautiful images sometimes you also need a little more luck.

Japanese people flock to the viewing spots for flowers. Photo: Getty. Each year, cherry blossoms only reach “peak in full bloom” for a few days. This is the law of nature that has existed for more than a thousand years. When it comes to cherry blossom season, Japanese people often flock to flower viewing spots for picnics or commemorative photos. But this year, the cherry blossom season comes and goes quickly. Scientists call this the earliest blooming season in history, and point out the cause: a climate crisis is threatening the ecosystem. The flowers bloom early The timing of cherry blossoms in full bloom can vary from year to year, depending on factors such as weather or rainfall. But in general, the cherry blossom season tends to come sooner. Researcher Yasuyuki Aono from Osaka Prefecture University gathered historical data in the city of Kyoto. According to Aono, this year’s flower season in Kyoto starts on March 26, the earliest in more than 1,200 years. Aono expert data shows that the city of Kyoto welcomes the cherry blossom season around mid-April for many centuries. From the 1800s, the flowering season shifts to around early April, during which a few years the flowering season takes place at the end of March. “Sakura flowers are very sensitive to temperature”, Mr. Aono analyzed. “The temperature can determine when the flowers bloom. Compared with the 1820s, the current temperature in Japan has increased by about 3.5 degrees C “. He also said that this year’s flower season clearly reflects the change in temperature. Specifically, this year’s winter in Japan is very cold while spring comes incredibly fast and warm. Therefore, cherry blossoms have “awakened with enough rest”. Cherry blossoms in Washington, USA, also bloom early. Photo: Getty. In Tokyo, the cherry blossoms bloom from March 22, the second earliest time in history. “As global temperatures warm, spring frosts occur early, leading to early blooming of cherry blossoms,” said Dr. Lewis Ziska of Columbia University of Environmental Health Sciences. Not only in Japan, the cherry blossoms in Washington, USA, also bloom early. According to the management of the National Park, this year’s cherry blossom season lasts only nearly a week, from March 31 to April 5. Ecosystem randomization However, early blooming is only the “tip of the iceberg”. Associate Professor Amos Tai from the University of Hong Kong warned of the global climate crisis that could destabilize the ecosystem and threaten the life of all species. In fact, plants and insects depend on each other. Both groups need to interact, influence each other, and at the same time need signals from the environment to “adjust their own life cycle”, according to Mr. Tai. Plants, for example, sense the temperature around them. If the temperature is warm enough for a certain amount of time, they will start to leaf, shoot and flower. Likewise, insects and many other animals are temperature dependent throughout their life cycle. Rising temperatures can accelerate growth in animals. “The relationship between plants and insects and other organisms has evolved over the years, that is, thousands to millions of years,” said Mr. Tai. But in recent centuries, climate change is destroying everything and disturbing these relationships ”. Plants and insects can react to increases in temperature at different rates, leaving their lifecycle out of sync. This means plants and insects may not grow together in the spring. Now, flowers can bloom before the insect is ready, or vice versa. “Insects will not find nutrients from plants and plants do not have enough nutrients to pollinate,” Mr. Tai concluded. In Tokyo, the cherry blossoms bloom from March 22. Photo: Getty. According to a 2009 study in the journal Biological Conservation , over the past few decades, a number of flora and fauna have transformed themselves to escape the effects of climate change. But the ecosystem is increasingly difficult to adapt, as the climate becomes unpredictable. “Ecosystems are not used to such large fluctuations,” said Tai. “The productivity of ecosystems can be degraded, even collapsed in the future.” The effects of climate change are not limited to cherry blossom season. Mr. Tai said that life cycle changes occurred in many crops of economic value, posing challenges to food security and farmers’ livelihoods. At the same time, food supplies in some vulnerable areas are also directly affected by drought and grasshoppers. “Farmers will find it difficult to predict crop yields,” said Mr. Tai. “Farming is now like gambling. Climate change is randomizing every factor in our ecosystems ”.

For a long time, BLINK is a genius in determining the background of the items that BLACKPINK wears on their body. From magazine shoots to stage clothes, casual clothes or outings, what brand BLACKPINK wears, fans can see it all. Yet in the series of pictures Jennie went to see the cherry blossoms, the owl fans quickly identified the background of the shirt, hat, backpack, even hair tie that Jennie used. Only the colored jeans are netizens looking at all the brands from domestic to international but have not found it yet. A lot of people are interested in the trendy color streaked shorts, but looking at it forever, they have not discovered that the design is exactly like the one Jennie wore, but only found similar models. BLINKs give up in front of Jennie’s jeans, as this is a product of the collection that has not been officially opened for sale by the fashion brand Nieeh. For a long time, people still doubted that Nieeh was founded by Jennie and close friends, but Jennie never mentioned it. Only the fact that Jennie regularly wears a brand new brand like Nieeh, gives products to BLACKPINK members or many other artists, and recently wears Nieeh’s unopened clothes, netizens are more confident that Jennie is. The brand’s “mystery factor”.

Aquarium or aquatic shrimp is a common term for many types of shrimp. With a size slightly larger than the tip of a toothpick, the shrimp have many different names such as red cherry, bee, tiger, Kinh kong, red nose, white dot, green, yellow pumpkin … depending on the type.

This ornamental creature has a colorful appearance, eats vegetables in a glass tank, cleans the environment, so it easily “attracts” many players. Most of the common types of shrimp in Vietnam are originated from Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia …

Although ornamental shrimp is popular, it is quite “picky” for farmers because the life expectancy of this species is very low, susceptible to disease and highly contagious. At the same time, breeding shrimps requires farmers to have high technical skills.

.

Mr. Le Tuan Anh (Ha Huy Tap ward, Ha Tinh city) revealed: Shrimps are sensitive to weather, food, water and light so players need to be very clear about their pathology, closely monitor abnormalities to avoid them falling ill.

The most important factor for the beautiful color and healthy life of the shrimp is the water quality.

If you see shrimps swimming weak, lethargic need to change the water immediately. If there is discoloration or fading in the aquarium shrimp, the water quality is deteriorating. (In the photo are kinds of shrimp that are quite easy to live like: RC red shrimp, Chocolate shrimp, Blue Dream …)

In the summer, players of ornamental shrimp in Ha Tinh also struggle to maintain the ideal temperature because most of the ornamental shrimp lines prefer cool temperatures. At temperatures higher than 28 degrees Celsius, shrimp will not be able to lay eggs, even fading.

In order to maintain the ideal living environment for shrimp, players also have to invest in some additional tools such as filtration system, projector lamp, background distribution, cooling fan, PH meter, thermometer …

Shrimps are omnivores that do not require special food. In addition to algae, harmful algae, and plant foods, players can also add some specialized foods.

The cost of shrimp depends on the type, pattern, color of the shell and its rarity. The most popular and affordable one is the Red cherry (cherry shrimp) about 20 to 50,000 VND / pair. More expensive, there are types of yellow shrimp, black shrimp, Kingkong, Panda, Red Ruby … from 100,000 VND to several million / animal. In particular, there are types of hybrids, mutant shrimp that are offered for tens of millions of dong.

Although the hobby of playing shrimp is a bit fussy, with many people taking care and cherishing each small shrimp becomes a hobby. Mr. Nguyen Cao Cuong (Bac Ha ward, Ha Tinh city) shared: “After a long and hard day, the time I spent watching the shrimps brought me a feeling of comfort. Taking care of shrimp also trains me to be patient, because it is difficult to be impatient and impatient to control the care of the tank and keep the shrimp ”.

This is not the first time I have come to Tonglu, but every time, I will fall in love with this place again.

Tonglu is really a place with good mountains, rivers, and a good life. For many people who want to temporarily escape the pressure of the city, they can live a fresh and leisurely mountain life by driving for a few hours, and the Tianzidi Ecological Scenic Area This is the treasure destination I found.

The folklore of the young emperor is circulated here, which originated from the birthplace of Liu Yu, Emperor Wu of Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty 1600 years ago. It is a paradise where the strange cave landscape and the forest ecological environment are integrated.

In the spring of Tianzidi, the cherry blossoms are dyed with a delicate pink color. Just on the road at the entrance of the scenic spot, there is a large pink cherry blossom forest over one kilometer.

Wearing Hanfu under the most beautiful cherry blossom forest is a tribute to the most beautiful spring.

At the entrance of Tianzidi, there was a sea of ​​wisteria flowers, which attracted my attention. It was originally just a promenade, but the vines were planted with wisteria flowers, which instantly turned it into a romantic sea of ​​wisteria flowers. In this weather, the wisteria flowers are growing just right, the romantic purple and the green of nature, it can be said to be very small and fresh.

The main planted in Tianzidi is Guanshan Sakura, also known as Evening Sakura. The flower color is very pink and it is said to be pink from blooming to withering. The Guanshan cherry blossoms all over the hills and plains are clustered together, dressing Tianzidi into a pink cherry blossom world.

The path of the cherry blossom forest is one of the most beautiful sceneries in Tianzidi. Walking on the path, the cherry blossoms sticking out branches, the petals of the cherry blossoms are sprinkled on my body, the falling leaves are colorful, and I am surrounded by the cherry blossoms, and I feel the most vibrant atmosphere of spring.

In order to enrich the fun of playing in the mountains and the wild, the Dinosaur Valley in Tonglu Tianzidi was also grandly opened in the splendid spring day. On the trail down the mountain, dozens of “dinosaurs” of various shapes were gathered, as if walking into the Jurassic world. These dinosaurs were hidden in the cherry blossoms, and they matched particularly well. People couldn’t help but find out.

In fact, Tianzidi Dinosaur Valley is not a real dinosaur. They are all kinds of dinosaur shapes made of props, which are vividly displayed in front of you. They open their mouths and have a frightening aura. When passing by, they will make wailing sounds, as if the dinosaur is really by their side.

There are many kinds of dinosaurs in the Tianzidi Dinosaur Valley. These prehistoric behemoths descended in the quiet and ethereal nature of Tianzidi, stepped into the Dinosaur Valley, returned to the Jurassic dinosaur era, and took a journey of exploration hundreds of millions of years ago. . Stegosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, Brachiosaurus, pterodactyl, and sickle dragon are dazzling.

If I guess right, this one should be Tyrannosaurus rex. It lived at the end of the Cretaceous period. It was one of the most ferocious carnivores in history. It has deadly serrations. Look at its strong hind limbs, a mouth, and sharp teeth. The man’s cold hair stood upright, and his eyes looked like he had just walked out of the depths of a bamboo forest looking for prey. There were wailing roars passing by, and it was so realistic that people couldn’t help trembling.

The long and tall brachiosaurus lived in the late Jurassic period. It was a herbivorous dinosaur with a huge body, a long neck, a stubby tail, straight and sharp teeth, and it could swallow a whole piece of food when eating. But fortunately, the herbivorous type looks a little dull. When you walk under it, you are always worried about whether it will bend its neck.

There are other types of dinosaurs, such as Sickleclaw and Dilophosaurus, that have not been heard before. It is really scary to see them with blood basins and mouths, but after watching it for a long time, I dare to touch it a little. The sharp teeth are not as scary as imagined, but I have to sigh, they are really realistic.

Tianzidi Dinosaur Valley is more like a Jurassic museum. Using these dinosaur models to better tell children some popular science knowledge about prehistoric dinosaurs is also very educational. So if the parents bring their children to play, they will definitely get a lot of posture.

Tonglu itself is a relatively mountainous place. The karst caves under the mountain have underground rivers, and the largest shaft-shaped karst cave in Asia is the Tianzi Cave of Tianzidi, also known as the Xianren Cave.

Walking into the cave, the colorful colors are very fresh for me who explored the cave in this way for the first time, and the fluorescent lights flash back. The Tianzi Cave was originally dark, but now with the lighting, coupled with the blessing of music, it has become a very dreamy place.

Walking into the depths of the cave, you can see a gorilla hanging in the air.

After entering the cave, the scenery inside the cave was so amazing that I was very surprised. The colorful lights illuminate the stalactites, as if they are in a fairyland. These variously shaped stones have been endowed with legendary colors and stories. This This is the first time that I have seen such a cave view. Walking in the cave is like a dream.

What is it like drifting in the forest? After coming out of the Tianzi Cave, I came to the classic project, the rafting path, to experience the fun of crossing on the rafting path, and to drift through the forest together to explore the world of primitive vegetation.

There is also a dry slide on the side of the rafting track. Sit down on the slide and enjoy the unseen forest next to you. Birds walk on the rocks and look at the forest from a different angle, allowing you to broaden your vision.

The total length of dry skiing is very long, and it has been sliding from Tianzi Cave to the foot of the mountain. You can control the brake acceleration and other things by yourself. When the acceleration is falling, you can feel what speed and passion are.

The heaven in spring is accompanied by cherry blossoms, and there are various fun projects.

Come here to spend a leisurely and pleasant spring life

20 degrees warm spring pink cherry, you deserve it.

I first met rhododendrons in the northern mountains when I was a child. When spring came up to pick wild vegetables, I saw the crevices of the cliffs and mountains, and there were pink flowers swaying in the wind. They were particularly eye-catching among the green hills and green trees. , But I wanted to walk in but couldn’t climb up.

The adults told me that the azaleas bloom so beautifully, for fear of being damaged by people, that’s why they like to grow in the crevices of the cliffs. From then on, I also planted a dream of getting close to the rhododendron. I imagined that one day I could see a sea of ​​rhododendrons in the mountains that I could walk into.

Yunwu Mountain, located in the Mulan Cultural and Ecological Tourism Zone of Huangpi District in Wuhan’s “Back Garden”, is 60 kilometers away from the central city of Wuhan. It is a natural scenic area dominated by mountains and a national 5A-level tourist attraction.

When I came here at the beginning of April, it coincided with the blooming of more than 40,000 acres of azaleas in the mountains. I was fortunate to have a glimpse of the beauty. From then on, I realized my dream about the sea of ​​azaleas when I was young.

A local friend said that the time when you came was just right, and the azaleas in Yunwu Mountain were blooming. And another voice said that if you come to Huangpi to see the rhododendrons in Yunwu Mountain, you will come to Huangpi for nothing.

As a result, on a rainy day, I took the rain into the mountain and encountered the sea of ​​azaleas in the depths of Yunwu Mountain.

Yunwu Mountain is located in the northern mountainous area of ​​Wuhan. It has a mild climate and humid rain. It has an ecological environment suitable for the survival and reproduction of wild rhododendrons. As a result, there are 10,000 acres of wild rhododendrons and it is also a famous rhododendron research base in the country. Every late March, the rhododendrons in the mountains and plains begin to bloom, which is famous at home and abroad.

The Yunwu Mountain in the rain highlights the three characteristics of its name “Yunwu Mountain”. Take a scenic tour bus up the mountain to see the azaleas. The mountain road is winding, and as the mountain rises all the way, the mists and clouds appear and disappear. As the altitude increased, the azaleas on the roadside gradually increased, so that the passengers on the car could not help but cheer.

The tourist bus driver said, don’t worry, the most beautiful is still on the mountain.

Yunwu Mountain is famous for its majestic and majestic mountains. The main peak is 709 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Wuhan. On this highest peak is the world’s longest “cantilevered glass viewing platform” certified by the Guinness Book of Records. I visited Yunwu Mountain before in December, and at that time I also experienced the power of a Yunwu Mountain tourist bus driver.

On a vertical mountain road with a slope of almost 60 degrees and elbows turning on the way, tourists screamed in fright, but the tourist bus driver was calm and calm, admiring the driver’s superb driving skills.

When heading to the sea of ​​rhododendrons in the rain, the mountain roads rained continuously. The driver master said, “Here, the mountain roads are steep and rainy. We are already familiar with the road conditions. Don’t worry.”

How many azaleas are there in Yunwu Mountain? “Come to Yunwu Mountain, you can see a live azalea encyclopedia,” the person in charge of Mulan Yunwu Mountain Scenic Spot told everyone.

Rhododendron has a long history of cultivation in our country. There is a record of planting rhododendron as early as the Tang Dynasty in my country, and it has a history of more than 1,000 years.

It is reported that there are more than 900 varieties of azaleas in the world, more than 500 in my country, and more than 400 varieties of azaleas in Yunwu Mountain. The 10,000 acres of wild azaleas here are a wonder of China.

Mulan Yunwu Mountain Rhododendron blooms from March to May every year, and the wild rhododendrons are mainly spring and alpine rhododendrons. There are four core viewing spots in the scenic area: Huashan, Huahai, Huayang and Flower Avenue.

Huashan has the lowest elevation and the earliest flowers bloom; the sea of ​​flowers is continuous; Huayang has the highest topography and is a concentrated growth area of ​​alpine rhododendrons. The best spot for viewing flowers is the “Flower Viewing Avenue”, also known as the Rhododendron Valley. This is a well-preserved natural and primitive azalea forest belt with a length of about 5 kilometers. There are both wild azaleas and new artificially cultivated species along the way.

Rhododendrons in Yunwu Mountain are divided into early, middle and late blooming. From March to May, the azaleas at the three major flower viewing spots of Huashan, Huahai and Huayang will continue to bloom. The flowering period is as long as 3 months. Therefore, we missed March 4 to You can still see it in May.

In previous years, the scenic spot will hold the Rhododendron Festival during the blooming period of the azaleas. This year it was not held due to the epidemic, but it did not affect the enthusiasm of tourists to come to view the flowers, especially loved by flower lovers and photography enthusiasts.

Although it was raining, I sometimes saw young ladies in Hanfu come here to take pictures.

An oiled paper umbrella in the rain is more versatile with the weather, and the slim figure of the ladies in Hanfu makes the entire sea of ​​flowers more beautiful and moving, and others can’t help but take a few pictures.

It is said that there is a “hundred-year-old flower king” on the top of Yunwu Mountain. It is estimated that the tree is about 100 years old and the crown diameter can reach 5-6 meters after flowering. Due to the rush of time in the rain, I did not look for this century-old Kao, but in the Huahai Plank Road, there are azalea trees that grow into big trees everywhere. The whole branches are tilted above people’s heads like waterfalls, which is spectacular. .

It can only be described in two words: beautiful.

It turned out that the rhododendron I imagined is not more than half a meter tall like a grass. I never thought that it could be covered with mountains like this, and I have never seen a rhododendron that grows into a big tree.

This is why it is better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles, and to travel thousands of miles is not as good as being on the scene and witnessing it with your own eyes.

Rhododendrons, branches and clusters, bloom in spring, graceful and luxurious, especially the wild rhododendrons in the rain, appear more and more delicate and beautiful.

In April, the azaleas in the Mulan Yunwu Mountain Scenic Area in Huangpi District were in full bloom, ushering in the best flowering period, while the colorful azaleas all over the mountains and the wild, at the same time, ushered in a flower viewing boom. It is said that it was only one day on April 4th. More than 20,000 tourists came to enjoy the flowers.

From March to May, I missed the cherry blossoms in Wuhan, and don’t miss the azalea sea of ​​Yunwu Mountain when you come to Wuhan. It’s really your regret not to take a look.

“Trees soaked in water for 20 days cannot survive,” said landscape planner Ngo Anh Dao, who has planted dull forests along the 650m long shore of Triem Tay and neighboring Cam Kim commune since 2018. Sad is sad, she said, but this is the law of nature.

The cork tree is the body

According to TS. Ngo Anh Dao is “a pioneer tree and a sacrifice for the posterior generation behind.” As a result, although the number of poor trees is only 1/3, the riverbank of Trem Tay village does not erode like in the previous years when floods came.

This poor forest is the outermost layer of an ecological soft embankment coping with landslide. Anh Dao put it to the test at her farm An Nhien after the historic flood in 2017 seeped 12ha of the riverbank area. Before the embankment was constructed, each time the flood came, the banks of the Trem Tay River would recede more than ten meters deep and many villagers determined that they would have to leave sooner or later.

The ecological soft embankment model is the result of many years of observation and research by TS. Anh Dao goes downstream of Thu Bon river. She does not consider this as a new invention but simply a process of restoring indigenous ecosystems.

“This is a very sensitive and fragile area,” said the female landscape planner, when she was under pressure from the water pouring in from the Truong Son mountain range, and the pressure from waves and storms. Just comparing the map of Thu Bon river basin from 1984 with the present, anyone can recognize the appearance, swelling and disappearance of floating dunes. If more than 30 years ago, there were four large and small sand dunes in front of Trem Tay, over time, the side of the mudslide, now they have formed a large dune deviating to the north, causing the flow from upstream to crash into the bank of Trem Tay village and the neighboring Cam Kim commune. Therefore, every time the flood comes, the Trem Tay bank will slide and the other sand dune bank accretes.

The villagers of Trem Tay seem to be too familiar with this harsh law of nature. At the age of 54, Pham Duoc had to move his house twice despite being born and raised in this village. His first home was at the head of the village but by the age of twenty, he was forced to move to the middle of the village. In 2009, the commune authorities urged him to continue to move, but because of “comfortable housing, a garden, a chicken”, he decided to stay. However, after the historic flood in 2017, when the water flooded to 1.6 meters deep, he got scared and decided to demolish the house, sell the land and move to his current home at the end of the village.

“I wanted to build a house to leave for the children, so I accepted it,” he was told. Each time like that, he “is not sad” because “has to accept it.”

Also because of the desire to keep the village and have a passion for planting trees, this builder began to work as TS’s farm housekeeper. Anh Dao from 2016 on a piece of land at the end of the village abandoned because some people have retreated inland like Mr. Can. Others, especially the young, have quit farming because their rice land is either no longer available or salty, and go to work on tourism in Hoi An or Da Nang.

On this wasteland, Mr. Can and other workers have built wooden houses with modern designs, combining the high structure of stilt houses with indigenous materials such as bamboo and grass. The houses are mixed with nursery gardens and research of diversity of plants.

Standing from the house overlooking the river bank is a bamboo forest that villagers planted in the 1980s to prevent floods. “Thanks to this bamboo forest, when the flood comes, the flow will decrease”, he is explained. “Like when water runs through that basket.”

In front of the bamboo forest, along the riverbank is the ecological embankment.

Use “soft” against “hard”

Different from the commonly applied concrete hard revetment in Vietnam, the soft revetment does not resist the destruction of waves and floods but backs and accepts it – more similar to the village motto of living with floods. This 200 years old.

“The current popular philosophy is that people are fighting against nature, conquering nature with hard solutions and ignoring the understanding of coastal ecosystems, the access between water and land”, PhD. Mr. Dao analyzed. “Thinking like conquering nature, using it hard against the power of nature will be terrible because its destructive power will be even greater.”

Principle TS. Cherry mentioned that the law is immutable in physics: punching a wall with your hand will always hurt more if you punch the mattress with the same force. And given the increasing intensity and destructive power of storms and floods due to the effects of climate change, new coping measures are becoming more and more imperative to minimize damage from dike breaks.

In the design of the ecological embankment, the cork tree is TS. Cherry brought back to plant from Quang Tri, is the outer layer of the buffer protecting the village shore. The roots of this plant are of two types. The main root is poked straight down, possibly up to ten meters deep. The secondary roots, also known as lung roots, are precipitated when immature, soft and swaying with the waves. When the tree grows, this lung root hardens, protrudes from the mud about 60-80cm, very hard. Therefore, cork trees have the ability to accumulate mud, hold soil, and reduce the destructive power of underground waves.

Next to the cork layer is a layer of grass, including native grasses such as hammer grass, grass with bald roots that can be up to 3m deep below the ground, next to the pangasius is a two-leafed tree, the roots are even deeper. tens of meters. These are easy-to-live, fast-growing plants with good soil holding capacity.

The last layer is a row of casuarina trees planted from 2017 that are 8m high. In addition to the ability to hold soil, the height and softness of the conifers help to both block waves and windbreak.

These three layers together create a green vegetation reinforced with bamboo biological “lock” layers to support soil retention in the early years when the layers are young, the roots are not deep enough.

With the initial results achieved, TS. Anh Dao is confident that the philosophy behind this model is the right direction for the sensitive downstream areas that are suffering from both natural disasters and natural disasters. The flood discharge of dozens of hydroelectricity upstream; exploitation of sand in the river bed; monoculture agriculture, improper exploitation of groundwater, causing subsidence; along with tourism development, regardless of the fragility of the ground here, all contribute to increasing the risk of landslides in the area, he explained.

Natural balance

Realizing the initial efficiency of the project, in addition to the affordable price – the construction cost of 1 meter of ecological embankment is only 1/5 of the cost of building the concrete embankment – Hoi An government plans to extend 900m of longitudinal embankment. According to the territory of Phuoc Thang village in the neighboring Cam Kim commune, where after the flood in 2017, the bank fell 50 meters deep into the mainland.

However, the ecological embankment is not without its risks. “An embankment requires a tree to develop to a certain extent to be effective,” said Nguyen The Hung, vice president of Hoi An city. This is a fact to consider when choosing the time to start planting trees for ecological embankments because according to the experience of the Hoi An people, every three to five years a big flood will repeat and the poor forest also needs that many years. to be able to cope with floods.

The most obvious evidence is the initial failures in the construction of ecological embankments by TS. Cherry. In fact, the horticultural forest she planted in 2018 was the second test after the failure of 2017, when the historic flood hit and killed the immature cork trees that were only one year old.

Therefore, each ecological embankment requires a deep understanding of the local soil and climate. Invited by the authorities of Dak Nong and Dak Lak to study the replication of an ecological embankment model for the Krong No riverbank, which is suffering from severe landslides, PhD. Anh Dao cannot carry the whole model from An Nhien. The key thing that does not change is the principle of using measures of “soft, back and forth” instead of “forward and conquer”.

Post-flood cleaning in An Nhien continues after Tet. Meanwhile, the poor forest has begun to show signs of revitalization. “Maybe I will leave it alone, the cork tree will grow back on its own, or I will plant more, depending on the budget”. Anh Dao said.

What is important according to the doctor is the long-term perspective. Once the embankment ecosystem is returned to its natural equilibrium, other social and economic benefits will follow.

Since the ecological embankment, shrimp, fish, birds, wild ducks, many insects have created a new source of livelihood for the village. Each spring, “so many birds can not sleep at night,” he shared. The green embankment on the transparent river also contributes to attracting more tourists to visit this ancient village.

If before 2015, Trem Tay land was sold for 1 million / m2, not many people bought, now, the land price has increased 15 times thanks to community tourism projects, resorts and the belief that village land will is kept. Walking around the road surrounded by the tea tree fence of the village, you can see that people are taking advantage of repairing and repainting their houses to make them more stable and spacious. From the past two years, young people working away from home have come back with plans to do tourism and open shops. All just wait for the disease to pass to be ready to revive.
