The Swiss love to say: God is especially fond of the Lavaux terraces, so he awarded it three suns.

Thinking of China’s Hou Yi shooting the sun to save sentient beings, does it give rise to the illusion of “Are the Swiss particularly carrying the sun”?

The truth is this.

Lavaux is a wine-producing region in Switzerland. When we start thinking about the best wineries in the world, the first ones that may come to mind are Podol in France, Napa Valley in the United States, Marlborough in New Zealand, etc., but in the latest On the list of the top ten wineries in the world, the first place is to be shared today-Lavaux vineyards in Switzerland.

Lavaux Vineyard is located on the southern slope of the Alps between Lausanne and Vaud in Switzerland. It starts from Chillon Castle in the east and the suburbs of Lausanne in the west. It extends 40 kilometers along Lake Geneva and covers an area of ​​more than 890 hectares. It is the most famous grape producing area in Switzerland.

The winery is located on a small piece of land. Perhaps its efficiency and reputation are not as high as other wineries, but it is the only winery listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site among the top ten wineries in the world.

Lavaux has a long history of growing grapes and making wine.

In the earliest days, it was a barren mountainous land. In the middle of the 12th century, the priests of the Western Metropolis of Switzerland began to cultivate the land here. They built up the stones on the hillside into a series of stone walls, and then moved the fertile soil from other places to cultivate the terraces before planting grapes.

To produce high-quality wine, grapes are the most important thing, and for grape growing: sunlight, temperature, and humidity are all important. The most important of these is light.

Lavaux is good because of the three suns it possesses.

The first sun refers to the sky; the second refers to Lake Geneva, because it reflects/scatters/refracts sunlight;

The third refers to the insulation of the stone walls against the refraction of sunlight.

Under the influence of the priests, the people of Lavaux also gradually participated in the work of reclaiming the land and establishing the irrigation system. Large and small vineyards were gradually built, and finally the famous Chasselas grapes were cultivated.

With the growing of the vineyards and the growing number of wine-making workshops here, Lavaux has naturally developed into a Swiss wine-producing region, and eventually formed 6 famous wine brands, among which Dessares wines The most famous.

In 2007, UNESCO listed the Lavaux terraced fields in the “World Heritage List”. Its comment is: Lavaux terraced vineyards reflect the mutual adjustment between residents and the environment to optimize local resources and produce high-quality wines. And adaptation can be called cultural heritage.

Unlike many remote wineries, Lavaux’s geographical location can be called “noisy”. Almost every self-driving Swiss traveler will pass by here, because it is not only on the shore of Lake Zhiva, but also only a short drive from Geneva, the capital of the universe. 1 hour.

Although the Lavaux grape terraces have existed for nearly a thousand years, they do not seem to be old and exhausted at all, but rather a vibrant scene. This is naturally the result of people’s meticulous care. Just like the human body, the land is full of infinite possibilities, and it also requires recuperation and proper use according to the law to truly achieve sustainability, so that the land can continue to ensure adequate food and clothing for humans.

Starting from Geneva, driving north through the Lavaux Vineyards in the middle. The crescent-shaped Lake Geneva is the outermost on the right. The vineyards follow the trend of the hillside and flow all the way down, all the way to the Walanwa blue lake. in.

The two gleamed together in the sun.

Especially when compared with the endangered Banaue terraced farms in the Philippines, there is a sense of dignity and superiority.

The cascading vineyards are in order, full of fulfillment in autumn.

The train tracks also pass through the middle of the terraces. This section is one of the most beautiful train sightseeing routes in Switzerland. Sitting on the train, drinking wine and seeing the beautiful scenery, it’s wonderful to think about it.

In the life experience of many of us, being a farmer is a very hard job. That’s why the teenagers have a mentality of “We must try our best to jump out of the farm to get good cabbage in the city.” However, they have settled in Las Vegas for generations. The Christoven family, who grows grapes and makes wine in the village of Voreváz, will say:

No job in the world is better than ours, and no place is more beautiful than here.

As a farmer, there is a world of difference in life. This is really worth thinking about.

Regarding Lavaux, there is also a local story: in the vineyards under the railway, you can often pick up train tickets from Lausanne back to northern Switzerland. It was thrown to the tourists who “love at first sight” on the terraces-because they never wanted to leave again, they simply threw away the return ticket.

From farmland to winery, from plantation to cultural tourism, “telling good stories” has always been an unbreakable truth.

Even Lavaux, a world heritage site.

Fruit-laden vineyards attract people to visit. Mr. Hung’s vineyard is about 6,000m2, including 2 zones, of which the garden is 2,000m2 for fruit. Mr. Hung grows many varieties of grapes such as: nail grapes, candy grapes, black grapes. These grape varieties were bought by him from Ninh Thuan and planted. After nearly 1 year of care, Hung’s vineyard began to bear fruit. “I didn’t plan to open the door because it wasn’t finished yet, but acquaintances came to the garden to play, take pictures and post them online, so people came in and asked to take pictures. Therefore, I decided to open the door for free to visitors. Since opening, more than 1,000 people in Dong Thap, Vinh Long, Can Tho … have come to visit,” Mr. Hung said. Mr. Hung’s super-fruity and beautiful vineyard. Photo: Thanh Ngan “The other day, I and a group of friends came to visit this vineyard, although the road is a bit far and difficult to find, but when entering the garden, it is very beautiful, the owner is extremely hospitable. When coming to the garden, the cool air makes me relax my mind and reduce stress. Especially, this vineyard takes very beautiful photos, young people can live virtual,” Tinh Lap (living in Sa Dec) said when he returned to the vineyard for the second time. Mr. Hung added that he has now cut all the fruit and closed the garden to take care of the trees. “It is expected that on the occasion of September 2, the new grapes will bloom again. Now the grapes have run out of fruit, but many people do not know, so they still come to visit,” said Mr. Hung. In Dong Thap, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Tuan’s vineyard (Long Binh hamlet, Long Khanh B commune, Hong Ngu district) also attracts many people to visit and take pictures. This is considered the largest 3-color vineyard in the West, with more than 1,000 roots and is producing abundant fruit. Tuan’s vineyard in Hong Ngu, Dong Thap Mr. Tuan said, after renovating 13,000 m2 of farmland, he went to Ninh Thuan to survey, learn about soil, learn farming techniques and bring about 1,400 grape roots to test planting. The initial investment cost for the renovation of grape growing is about 60 million VND/1,000m2. Mr. Tuan said that the NH01-152 grape variety (also known as three-color grapes) has outstanding advantages in terms of fruit quality and weight. This is the largest three-color vineyard in the West Accordingly, this grape variety has good resistance to pests and diseases in Dong Thap land, high fruit setting rate, large fruit, average weight is from 0.5 to 1.5 kg/bundle. Since opening, Mr. Tuan’s vineyard has attracted a lot of visitors to experience taking pictures and hand-harvesting bunches of grapes. Mr. Tuan hires many people to take care of the vineyard. “For the first time in the West, I was able to pick grapes from the tree by myself, it felt very good. In addition, when we went to the vineyard, we couldn’t forget to take a lot of sparkling photos”, said Diem Phuc (living in Thanh Binh district, Dong Thap province).

Father and son Tran Minh Tung together take care of the vineyard. Photo:N.Son It is said that in Tan Hanh Ward there is a Ha Den vineyard planted in a safe way, many curious Bien Hoa people have come to Mr. Tung’s vineyard both to satisfy their curiosity and to save money. images with clusters of grapes laden with fruit. * Work and learn at the same time Introduced by friends, Ha Den grape is a grape variety with outstanding advantages compared to other grape varieties being grown in Vietnam such as: healthy growth, fast to harvest, sweet fruit, mild aroma and especially no taste. There were seeds, so Mr. Tran Minh Tung began to learn about the characteristics and techniques of growing this grape variety. In 2019, seeing that his son had a passion for farming, the family had land available, so Mr. Tung boldly invested in a drip irrigation system, materials for making trellis, tarpaulins, heat sinks and ordered 200 plants. Ha Den grape variety from Bac Giang University of Agriculture and Forestry for trial planting. Mr. Tran Minh Tung shared that in the coming time, he will continue to expand the area of ​​​​Ha Den grapes. In addition to selling grapes, he will develop the vineyard into a tourist attraction and experience. Mr. Tung said that when he brought the grapes to plant, everyone around him told him to take risks because grapes are often grown in the South Central coastal provinces, in Bien Hoa City, only a few families have grown as ornamentals. Planting for shade, few people grow grapes on a large scale (about 700-800m2) like him. When buying materials and equipment to build a truss, receiving grape varieties for planting, he realized that he had taken a risk when he spent 120 million VND to do something without knowing success or failure. Encouraged by his family, especially his son, and expressed his determination to successfully grow the Ha Den grape variety with his father, Mr. Tung felt empowered. However, passion and determination is one thing, the reality of growing and taking care of grapes is another. In addition to instructions from Bac Giang University of Agriculture and Forestry, in order to take care of the vineyard, he had to find books to read, go online to find articles about Ha Den grapes for reference, and even fly from South to North, find gardeners to learn from experience. The vineyard is located next to the house, so the first time he planted it, he was in the vineyard almost every day to monitor the growth of the grapes, as long as the grapes showed signs of abnormality, he would contact a number of gardeners to ask and handle. right. Thanks to that, after only 2 years of growing grapes, Mr. Tung has mastered all techniques of growing and taking care of grapes, handling problems related to Ha Den vine. Knowing the vineyard, many people in Bien Hoa City came to visit and take pictures at the vineyard. Photo: Facebook Nguyen Thuy MC According to Mr. Tung’s share, in addition to buying healthy seedlings, a prerequisite for growing Ha Den grapes is a roof. The roof is made of transparent nylon that has the effect of covering heavy rain to prevent leaf breakage, fruit loss, and pest control. The fertilizing and watering is not the same as for ordinary plants, but must use a drip irrigation system and an automatic fertilizing system on the grapevine, absolutely do not water the leaves. In the period of flowering and fruiting, the care is the most difficult because it is necessary to prune flowers, prune fruit, and cover fruit. The technique of pruning grapes needs to be very skillful so as not to scratch the fruit and cause it to crack when it grows. In the near-harvest stage, watering must be stopped to increase the sweetness of the grapes. * Add a “check-in” place for Bien Hoa people Ha Den Vineyard has only been nearly 2 years old so far, starting to generate income. Mr. Tung said that from the 2nd year onwards until the 8th year is the time when the grapes are at their strongest, so the yield will be higher, about 5kg/plant/crop (2 crops per year). Because this is the first harvest, the family wants to create conditions for customers to try Ha Den grapes, so the family only sells it for 120,000 VND/kg (while in the market, the price ranges from 150 to 170 thousand VND/kg). . Ha Den Vineyard not only brings income to Mr. Tung’s family but also becomes a destination to visit and take pictures of Bien Hoa people. Ms. Trieu Hoa Ngoc Lan, Secretary of Doan P. Tan Hanh said, Bien Hoa city has no fruit garden that can serve the needs of visiting, taking pictures and experiencing, so the grape growing model is quite new. She contributed to introduce the vineyard to friends, colleagues, and youth union members. Therefore, the first grape crop last year, although there were not many fruits, attracted many visitors to visit and take pictures. Having a hobby of traveling experiences, Ms. Nguyen Ngoc Thao An (living in Quang Vinh Ward, Bien Hoa City) has traveled to experience many gardeners inside and outside the province. According to Ms. Thao An, in Da Lat she had been to the garden of cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, lettuce, strawberries…; Coming to Ninh Thuan, she visited the vineyard and dragon fruit. In the province, she visited Tan Trieu pomelo garden, rambutan garden in Long Khanh… Most recently, when friends introduced about Ha Den vineyard in Bien Hoa city, Thao An also came and “checked in” here. Ms. Thao An shared, Ha Den vineyard is the same size as other gardeners she has been to, but has the advantage of being located in the campus of Bien Hoa city. This is a favorable condition for those living in Bien Hoa city who are passionate about garden tourism like her to take advantage of visiting and taking pictures without spending much time traveling. A special feature, besides visiting Ha Den vineyard, visitors can manually cut their favorite bunch of grapes with scissors, taste grapes right at the garden, but only pay the amount equivalent to the purchase amount. grapes.

However, few people know that fruits can also contain parasites, bacteria, if not washed, they can live parasites in the human body and cause many health problems. Here are 3 fruits that are most likely to contain parasites, so wash them thoroughly before eating Grape bunch Grapes are a favorite fruit of many people because it has a sweet, crunchy, aromatic taste, sometimes with a little sour taste, creating an extremely delicious and attractive feeling. However, grapes are usually harvested and sold in bunches. Inside the bunch of grapes there are always gaps, this is the space that creates a suitable habitat for parasites. In addition, because grapes contain high amounts of sugar, they attract the attention of more parasites. Therefore, when buying grapes, it is necessary to wash the grapes under clean running water, draining the water from top to bottom. Then, soak in dilute salt water for about 15 minutes, then eat. Strawberry Illustration. Strawberries grow close to the ground, when ripe, the entire flesh is exposed, the eyes of the strawberry can easily become “paths” for the parasites. to hide. Therefore, to ensure safety, when buying strawberries, you need to gently put the strawberries in a bowl of clean water, add a little flour or salt and soak for about 10 minutes, then gently take the strawberries out into a bowl of clean water. Repeat this 2-3 times so the strawberries can be cleaned. Water chestnuts Because water chestnuts are soaked in water for a long time, they are very susceptible to parasites. When eating, it is necessary to wash it with clean water, then use a knife to peel off the skin, if the inside is damaged, you should throw it away.

The melon garden on the terrace is 50m2 wide, Ms. Vo Thi Ngoc Anh (born 1990, in District 6, Ho Chi Minh City). Her family designed a hanging system that automatically watered and provided nutrients to the plants. Crispy, sweet melons not only serve the needs of the family, but also give them to relatives and friends. Similarly, Mr. and Mrs. Nguyen Cong Bang (SN 1990, in Tan Phu district, Ho Chi Minh City) also made many people fascinated with the melon garden on the terrace. He and his wife take advantage of the terrace of the house with an area of ​​​​70m2 to plant trees. In addition to vegetables, roses, orchids, they spend 30m2 to grow melons. Big melon, juicy fruit and very sweet to eat. Every day, Ms. To Thuy Hoan (50 years old, in Do Son, Hai Phong) also spends a lot of time taking care of her 50m2 garden. In the season, the garden is ripe and red, and the terrace is very beautiful. When the Covid-19 epidemic appeared, taking advantage of her free time, Ms. Hoan asked for land, Styrofoam boxes and bought seeds … started planting. The amount of land moved up was too much, she had to tie a rope to pull it from the first floor to the terrace. She also makes full use of Styrofoam boxes or plastic buckets as a place to sow seeds. With the crates, she does not punch the bottom, but the edge, about 20 cm from the bottom. Then, she punched a hole in the plastic can and put it on the bottom of the barrel. The mouth of the can is towards the edge of the opaque barrel, making the outlet for water, helping the roots to open, and saving soil. This woman also takes advantage of leftover vegetables, tubers, fruits, and shells of tubers and fruits to put them in the bucket, pour soil on top, then water rice … to form a green manure mixture. Mr. Phan Van Liem’s ​​garden (46 years old, in Tan Phu district, Ho Chi Minh City) is impressed by the “terrible” squash. The area of ​​​​the balconies and terraces on the 4th floor is about 60m2, which he makes full use of planting trees. The largest fruit in his garden weighs more than 34 kg. Previously, he planted ornamental plants to decorate the balcony. After that, when participating in online tree planting associations and groups and visiting some friends’ gardens, he decided to buy pots and land to plant to have clean vegetables and tubers to provide for family meals. The garden is full of fruit. He also grew American figs, kale… Mr. Pham Dang Khoa (Lai Chau City) also makes many people admire with a clean vineyard that he planted and fertilized with his own hands. Although the vines are only grown in boxes less than 1m2 wide, the garden is estimated at 2 quintals. In order to have this vineyard on the 3rd floor terrace, he built a few squares of bricks less than 1m2 wide, pouring soil to plant trees. However, to want the grapes to bear fruit, he worked very hard to fertilize chicken manure and potash fertilizers for the vines. Le Phuong (synthetic)

American beef that floods the US market is a type of beef raised by CAFO (Concentrated Livestock Production), which Americans call “urban cattle”. This form of farming forces 100 million herbivores for meat to eat all ground corn. About 60% of commercial US corn is used for livestock, mostly for cattle. The cow turns into a “machine” that converts corn into steak. This beef, accordingly, cheap, quality compared to beef grazing, imported from Argentina, a sky apart. The price is of course “any money”. New Zealand beef is included in the delicacy category. The Australian beef on the market is the best beef due to its scientific farming practices. The climate in Australia is diverse, so they breed both large breed groups including temperate groups and tropical groups. People often distinguish beef from tropical beef with humpback and beef temperate without. The Australian humpback is now over 150,000 VND / kg. Westerners do not know how to eat humpback beef, in Vietnam, many restaurants sell mixed hump dishes. Beef hump is delicious thanks to the thin fatty tissue located between the layers of lean, very sweet food. The back of this neck is also ideal for cooking five fruits. Vietnamese beef is not raised on a large scale. The price is not competitive with imported beef. Especially the US CAFO beef. When the owner of the Bistro restaurant on Le Thi Rieng Street (District 1) told me: “Westerners come here like to eat Vietnamese beef”. Vietnamese beef is fragrant with milk, he explained. I also do not understand much. Until the process of raising CAFO cows is known, it will be broken. That is not to mention bovine meat imported from India. India specializes in exporting buffalo meat. Production into Vietnam is large, but consumption is not much. Because the international customs regulations that both buffalo and beef meat are collectively bovine, most of them “go from buffalo to cow” back home. Two types of meat are delicious, gourmets believe that buffalo meat is better, but buffalo meat becomes a higher “pocket money” cow. When the delicious beef is locked. We start to cook it with five fruits. Beef cooked with grapes, the dish is often on the menu of wedding parties. Photo: LANGUAGE Popular in restaurants is the beef / buffalo dish cooked with grapes. Green grapes, red grapes, black grapes are okay, as long as they are both sour and sweet. Grapes are divided into two groups, large and small. Group of small fruits peeled, seeded and minced. The large group cut in half is more decorative. If you want a fatty beef, choose rump meat – the meat has a lot of fat, slice it and marinate it with spices and a little bit of MSG to enhance the sweetness of the meat. Approximately half an hour. Stew the beef to soften with coconut water, a small glass of white wine; red wine the better. Nearly ripe for the grapes on. Now the water has a certain consistency, becoming a sauce like beef stock. Served with vermicelli or bread are both delicious. Please borrow the word Tien Dien is “tót great”. Grape flavor is stronger when eating a piece of meat with half a grape. Usually these dishes are served with 6 or more people. Luong Vi, a Chinese chef, once said: “The apprentices asked me what is culinary culmination? Are those the freshest ingredients, the most complex flavors? Is it raw, or sophisticated? All of them are not. The culmination is not about eating or cooking, but giving and sharing food. “Great” food is never eaten alone, but must be eaten with close friends … ” Beef cooked with oranges is more aromatic than beef cooked with grapes, because the essential oil in the orange peel adds minced lemongrass. These two flavors are similar, so the resonance is eternal. As long as you squeeze the orange, turn the pieces upside down to take advantage of the essential oils in the peel. Many people choose beef corn to cook oranges. Corn, also known as calendula, is like humpback, with fatty tissues mixed in the corn meat to create interesting patterns. With this dish, beef broth must be available to cook for tender meat to taste. Beef cooked with red apple is selected as brisket. It is a piece of meat on the forelegs from the legs to the mouth, half lean and half fat. This meat is fragrant and crunchy, and when cooked, the fire must be adjusted to achieve a moderate softness without being chewy because of the dense connective tissue. The meat is also stewed with beef broth. The apple must be a red apple, also known as a jujube. Middle-aged people love this dried jujube in a traditional herbal remedy. It is a remedy for insomnia. Pineapple cooked beef is also known as fragrant braised beef. Beef for this dish also chooses beef dandruff because the meat has tendons so when the meat warehouse will not dry out. Since the aroma softens the meat quickly, this dish only needs to cook on low heat for 15 minutes. This dish has a salty and sour taste and the aroma of lemongrass ginger so you can taste it (mouthfeel), the whole family is fine with rice. Beef cooked with strawberries is just a suggestion I want to give to my friend Buu Viet, the owner of a riverside restaurant in Can Tho, who always likes to invent new, unique, tried and wrong dishes a few times, to become menu items in the restaurant. When it comes to mulberry season, you can also try it. This strawberry is very sweet, so it is necessary to adjust the balance with some sour ingredients, but in Vietnam, there are so many things, there is a sour food in every season. Every locality has sour food. If you are “localvore”, Phong Dien, Can Tho, where the strawberry is the native fruit, the sour substance will be the cork fruit.

The Buddha statues at Trung Son Tu (Photo: Phuong Anh / Vietnam +) Less than 5km from the center of Phan Rang-Thap Cham city to the northeast, Trung Son pagoda is an architectural work with majestic and poetic beauty, located on the slopes of Da Chong Mountain. This is one of the most famous sights in Ninh Thuan today. Initially, the pagoda was just a simple temple worshiping Buddha in the mountains. After 1975, the monk and the Buddhists from near and far raised money and effort to build. Over the years, the pagoda was planned and added a number of new works.

Apricot flowers are still the choice of the majority of people in Ho Chi Minh City Popular items of flowers and ornamental plants are still traditional types such as yellow apricot, peach, chrysanthemum, ornamental kumquat, orchids of all kinds, chickens, sunflowers … Apricot flowers are still chosen by the majority for Tet. According to many garden owners, this year, due to the sudden climate change, the apricot blossom bloom sooner, the price of Tet apricot blossom is only equal to that of last year without much change. According to many garden owners, this year, due to the influence of weather, apricot blossom bloom early, the price does not change However, due to the mentality of not knowing how to take care of apricot blossom in the wrong time for Tet, the tendency to hire apricots to play a few days in Tet is more concerned and safer. Accordingly, mid-sized apricot trees will have a rent of 1-2 million VND / pot (depending on age), perennial apricot trees will have a rent of 2-3 million VND / pot. In general, the closer Tet, the more fluctuating apricot prices will be due to factors such as flower quality, market demand … Hometown in Ninh Binh province, Nguyen Van Chien has spent many years working with clean agriculture in Ninh Thuan.
