Netizens are feverish with the price of beautiful big orchids being sold for from 50,000 VND to 100,000 VND a bunch of 10 branches. According to the flower world, the price of Tran Mong orchid branches is as cheap as this has never been, so everyone is racing to buy and plug. The long, green and healthy orchids are very durable, and flower pots can be played for a month. Therefore, it is not expensive to spend 100,000 VND to 300,000 VND to play a vase of flowers for the whole month. Especially rarely play precious flowers, “flower regal”. The lovers of Cymbidium also share the story of the origin of the name of Tran Dream Cymbidium. “Legend has it that King Tran dreamed of seeing a strange orchid, very beautiful and very fragrant one night. When he woke up, the king was dumbfounded and dumb. advancing the king a pot of orchids like in a dream. That is since then, the precious orchid has been named Tran Mong orchid, ie the dream of King Tran. The Sapa cymbidium pots with hundreds of branches in previous years are always a commodity hunted by the flower world every New Year to Spring. The enchanting beauty of the human heart with long stretching graceful orchids, luxuriant bunches of leaves, brings a feeling of prosperity, warmth and regal. However, perhaps everyone is disillusioned to know that the real flower they are arranging is not the legendary Tran spread. Flower arranger Do Vy Anh shared: “This is not a dream Tran or a dream of King Tran anywhere. A dream ceiling is a flower that is a cocoon to the player, each pot is about 15/30 stems, but the price per stem ranges from 1-2 million depending on time. It is like LAN. fragrant, sword-shaped leaves, high vertical shower porch. The flowers are brown, tiny – with a gentle scent. And these branches of flowers are Hong Hoang Sapa, which traders call Sapa Tran Dreaming to make a profit. This flower is many times bigger than Tran Dream. The flower branches are bent but not as horizontal as other fragrant LANs “. Close-up photo of Tran dream orchid branches in the legend Three sepals of Tran dream orchid spread wide, two petals slightly upside down, covering the top of the pistil with often curved lips, color spots. Flower branches grow straight from the bottom up, not drooping like Sapa Hong Hoang Cymbidium. The Tran dream orchid is quite durable (from 10 to 30 days to die), the flower cluster looks like the starlight and especially the fragrance is extremely seductive. Tran Mong Cymbidium has a very special scent, anyone who has smelled it cannot forget the deep sweet, gentle fragrance that will remember life. The connoisseurs of playing Lan are attracted to Tran Mong orchid because of the taste of this flower. Many people are surprised by this fact. Because they only know the sellers say these flowers are Tran Mong orchids grown in Sapa, at the end of the season, the gardeners cut branches to nourish the trees, so they sell them at such a low price. On normal days, you can definitely not buy this orchid at that price. Moreover, whether it is Tran Mong orchid or Hong Hoang terraces, these flowers are still very fresh, very durable, commensurate with the money. “On a fine day like today, I suddenly learned that I cannot have a dream like King Tran but at least still have a beautiful vase. That is enough”; “Oh so I have to say for the florists to return the correct name to her, there is also a sharp color that has no fragrance. Do not let the flower lover disillusioned with the idea of ​​playing the regal flower”.

But arriving, the close and friendly natural space, especially the orchid flower, makes visitors quickly forget the feeling of “suffocating” of the way up the mountain. Perhaps that is why, for a long time, Lao Chai 1 village has been named quite nicely by many tourists – “Garden of Eden”.

We divide into 4 groups, take turns cleaning every day. The fresh environment makes not only visitors like it, but also them. I also find my life happier, “said Mr. Xu A Chu. Not far from Lao Chai 1 village is Si Thau Chai village of the Dao ethnic group. Si Thau Chai is only 6km from Tam Duong town (Tam Duong district, Lai Chau province) but located on a mountain at an altitude of 1,400m above sea level. Here, visitors can enjoy the panoramic view of the vast and majestic mountains. With this charming beauty, Si Thau Chai village is the destination that attracts many groups of traveling tourists, caravan tour groups to experience. The village head, Si Thau Chai – Lu A Nghi, said that the village started to work in community tourism in 2017, in the village, there are currently 10 households working as a homestay. Since welcoming tourists, the Dao people in the village are very conscious of preserving the landscape. Besides planting perennial crops such as peaches, pears, and plums, households also plant roses around the house. “We have had a better life when doing tourism. Dao people still try to keep their identity, wear traditional costumes to welcome guests,” said Mr. Lu A Nghi. Si Thau Chai Community-Tourism Village (Lai Chau) planted many trees and roses. Not only in Lai Chau, many Northwest provinces also consider the community based tourism a tourism strength that needs to be developed. Surf village (Ngoc Chien commune, Muong La district, Son La province) is one of the community based tourism villages in the Northwest attracting many tourists. The feature here is that the white Thai community knows how to take advantage of the natural hot springs and culinary quintessence to draw visitors to experience. Mr. Lo Van Phang, the owner of a homestay facility in Surf village, shared that his establishment welcomes tourists from August 2020, in the first stage of difficulties due to the influence of Covid-19, but at the end of the year. , the number of arrivals is large, must book in advance to have a place to stay. “Everything to us was a surprise, but people understand very well, when doing tourism, you need to learn how to do services, work more disciplined”, Mr. Lo Van Phang said. The scenery in Si Thau Chai village is quite charming, the environment is clean and beautiful. Keep identity, increase travel route connection Currently, one of the raised issues is how to keep people cultural identity as well as increase connectivity between destinations in order to develop community tourism in the Northwest in a long term.

Chairman of the Hanoi Travel Association, Director of Hanoitourist Travel Company Phung Quang Thang, said that when translating Covid-19 affects the tourism industry, Hanoi visitors experience Northwest tourism quite a lot, contributing to the market. The tourist school has a certain bustle. “However, the development of tourism in the highlands still needs a methodical orientation and a closer connection with the travel agencies to introduce visitors to the experience,” said Mr. Phung Quang Thang. Over the years, Hanoi and the Northwest provinces have closely linked to making tourism products, in which the community based tourism is a highlight.

Illustrations: LE ANH. The road from the Tay village to Khuoi My, the village of the Ao Dai Dao is not very far, nor is it entangled with a steep and steep pass. The charming curves tighten the waist, slowly slack like an indigo lap. At times, the ears also buzzed, the neck was cold, but the clouds were able to calm them. The clouds here are warm like kitchen smoke in my friend’s house, wrapped around the body, hugging the mountain. Thanks to the altitude and humidity, which is different from other localities in the region, the roofs on stilts in Khuoi My are mostly green and mossy. The moss from year to year is good, and when you go inside, it feels warm like a blanket of heaven and earth, the mountains and forests are already warmed, covering the roofs of the four seasons hidden in the smoke, wind and clouds. Khuoi My is small, dreamy as the name itself, like the embodiment of the mountain girl. There are a few dozen households in the whole village, taking a short walk is the end of the day, everyone whose voice is strong, speaking at the beginning of the village, the end of the village is clear. Many people still say that the green on the roofs here often evokes feelings of sadness and regret. Those who come, go and return to this place will see a different moss color in each season. The moss green was darker, deeper, the blanket felt on the roofs heavier by the pain and attachment. I personally do not have that feeling. I find love, tolerance and protection very close, warm, peaceful, and peaceful. In the green color of young moss, the yellow color of the old moss is wilting and peeling, there is the warmth of mountains, clouds and the air radiating from each roof. The house where the whole village has joined hands to support each other since childhood. Nobody rented, bought or sold anything. Every house built a house, carved the whole village to make the roof. The tighter the roof, the more durable the sentiment. People cut palm leaves to dry, someone sharpens something, someone knocked on that, for a while they should have a home. The visitors arrived, the man of Dao Ao Dai ethnic group still kept his hands on a big cast iron pan. He looked back excitedly pointing to the seat for the guests, mourning: “Try to wait for this batch, we will invite tea!”. His family has made tea for many generations, harvested from the old Shan Tuyet tea tree, the body is as big as two embracing adult arms. People who want to pick tea have to wear the baskets on their backs, and take half a day to climb the mountain. The drinking table made from a forest log has dozens of different pots in size, style, and material. It seems that enjoying tea in mountainous regions is also very meticulous, no less next to other regions. This white tea is as white as snow, still with curved leaves, plump buds. This tea bar is thinner, the background is radiating in the warm terracotta. In addition to the “tea tools” made of wood, bamboo, and all kinds of terracotta pots, porcelain, and china, there are also pots of cymbidium, mountain ginseng covered with purple and turquoise cotton buds. I do not know if it is thanks to “rewarding” the delicate, pure tea flavor every day, but coming to Cymbidium, mountain ginseng, the plants that only like to stick deeply rooted in the source are still healthy, green but flowering, buds. Only at the tea table, we saw the harmony of yin and yang, the people who enjoyed the tea were more serene and more relieved. Tea infused, the host slowly raised a small cup with both hands to invite guests, the guests called to the kitchen to invite his wife to enjoy tea. The woman rubbed her wet eyes from the smoke of the kitchen. Women in this region have very beautiful skin, are always tense, red, with slightly freckled cheeks, sting marks, but also adorn their beauty to become salty, deep. On the head of the Ao Dai woman, her hair is neatly buned at the nape of her neck, above her forehead is skillfully wrapped around like a brim of a crimson hat, blue fringes are hanging above. The beauty is like a small portrait, with wild banana petals holding green stamens waiting for the day to come, gently covering her silky black hair, and above that, green moss-like roofs like the echoes of mountains and forests.
