Lungfish (Scientific name is Salamanderfish) is a freshwater fish famous for its ability to live on land. They can live for months without swimming around in the water, even years. The reason is that, with normal fish, the bubble is the part that helps the fish keep balance when swimming. But in lungfish, the bubbles develop into lungs to take oxygen directly from the air. Their fins also gradually change into swimmers. In the presence of water, lungfish swim normally, eating fish and small crustaceans. When the dry season comes, these places run out of water, lungfish will burrow into the mud by eating mud with their mouths and then excreting through the gills. When they reach a sufficient depth, they secrete mucus through their mouths to harden the mud, forming a cocoon around it. The mouth of the fish is the only part that is exposed to the air. Electric eel (electric eel) is a dangerous “water monster” in the Amazon River. They have a special ability, which is to generate electric current from cells called electrocyten located on the side. This current can reach 600 volts, enough to knock down a horse. Many electric shocks from this creature can cause heart attack or respiratory failure in humans. When attacked by electric eels, normal people will be stunned and drowned. Electric eels locate their prey by generating 10 volts of electricity before stunning them and killing them with stronger currents. Clownfish (clownfish) has an orange body with three white stripes. Most of them live in shallow waters in the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea and the western Pacific Ocean. According to the Mother Nature Network, clownfish are hermaphrodites with the ability to reproduce like both males and females. An interesting fact is that up to the right size and condition, clownfish will have the ability to change sex. Specifically, in a school, only the two largest clownfish are responsible for the reproductive function, they are the only couple in the school. If the dominant female dies, the male leader will change sex and become a breeding female. The second largest male will quickly develop into an adult male to pair with a new female. Siamese fish is one of the popular fish in Thailand. Possessing a variety of colors and beautiful round fins, Siamese fish are loved and kept as pets by many people. Besides the colorful appearance, Thai Siamese Siamese fish is also impressed by its unique ability to change color. The color of this fish’s body will change according to the environment, even if their mood is not good. Siamese fish is also known as an intelligent fish. They can be taught to swim with their fingers or push the ball into gold. They are also known to be aggressive and are often used in “fish fights”. Barrel eye fish (Scientific name is Macropinna Microstoma) is a strange fish with tubular eyes, located on the inside of the head and protected by a transparent shield filled with liquid. Their eyes are sensitive to light and contain a green pigment, which helps the barreleye fish to survive in the deep sea when hunting and hiding from predators. These eyes are even rotatable, allowing them to look straight ahead or look up to see everything overhead. The barreleye fish lives in the deep seas of temperate and tropical regions of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans. They spend most of the day maintaining a fixed position in the water thanks to their large flat fins. Devil face fish Verrucosa , also known as coral fighting fish, are commonly found in coral reefs under Australian waters. Their bodies can be up to 50 cm long and possess 13 venomous spines on their backs. The venom of the devilfish can cause heart failure if humans accidentally touch its venomous spines. In addition, the devil face fish also has a large body, many fins on the back and rough red-brown patchy skin like rocks. Taking advantage of this advantage, they often hide in coral reefs to hunt. After identifying its prey, it launches a bite in just 0.015 seconds to swallow the opponent.

As of 2020, 75% of Chinese cities already have high-speed rail. Symbol of economic power quyền China’s ambition is to turn high-speed rail into a model for long-distance travel in the country. However, the birth of the country’s current massive rail network takes on much greater significance. Like Japan’s Shinkansen in the 1960s, China’s high-speed rail network is being viewed as a symbol of economic power, rapid modernization, growing technological prowess, and prosperity. prosperity of the country. Currently, high-speed rail is a powerful instrument of social cohesion, political influence and regional integration between cultures. “The construction of new railway lines is part of President Xi Jinping’s grand plan to promote integration into the vast national market,” said Dr. SOAS) of the University of London said. This move shows that China is repeating the history of promoting high-speed rail networks, before many early railway lines in North America and Europe have done so. The development of railway networks in Russia, France, Great Britain and several other countries has been strongly influenced by political and military needs. “China has created a high-speed rail network on an unprecedented scale in history, which is forecast to be faster and certainly more reliable than China’s domestic flights. New stations and incredible travel routes are the highlight of this program. All tickets must be booked in advance and passengers only need to scan their ID card or passport at the ticket gates,” the travel expert said. railroad Mark Smith emphasized. China initially thought of choosing high-speed technology imported from Europe and Japan to establish a high-speed rail network. “Global railway engineering giants” such as Bombardier, Alstom and Mitsubishi are all keen to promote the cooperation program because of the potential size of the new market and the ambitious plan that China is targeting through the project. this. However, over the past decade, China’s domestic companies have developed into world leaders in high-speed train technology and engineering. Therefore, the mobilization of the available potential is considered a certain success of China in this field. The enormous scale and dramatic changes in topography, geology and climate posed many challenges during the implementation of this project. From Harbin to the Lanzhou-Urumqi route across the Gobi desert, Chinese engineers had to spend a lot of effort to be able to design suitable weather terrain to meet quality standards for the road route. iron across. High-tech simulation efficiency Chinese companies are among the world leaders in introducing new technology such as autonomous (unmanned) train operations and advanced navigation technology. Passengers board the high-speed train. Photo: CNN An unmanned high-speed train connecting Beijing and Zhangjiakou in northern Hebei province capable of reaching speeds of up to 350km/h is now becoming the world’s fastest autonomous train. The new route opened in December 2019 as part of preparations for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games. The fastest trains complete the journey in just 45 minutes. Built in four years, the route includes 10 stations serving two of the major Winter Olympics venues, along with several other stations in Badaling Changcheng allowing tourists to have a journey to their destination. The fastest Great Wall of China. Passenger cars on the self-propelled train have been expanded to store winter sports equipment, seats with 5G touch screen control panels, smart lighting systems, thousands of safety sensors and seats removable for wheelchair passengers… As China seeks to expand its influence across Asia, into Europe and Africa through its ambitious “Belt and Road Initiative”, the construction of a high-speed rail network is under way, according to CNN. contribute a fundamental part to create the “Silk Road” that Beijing is aiming for. “China’s high-speed rail industry has become one of the nation’s main economic pillars, and the high-speed rail network has brought convenience to passengers during travel,” said Jianwei. Zhang, President and Country Representative of Bombardier China said.

The plant is also called apricot tea, apricot tea, tea tree oil, commonly found in many northeastern mountainous areas. The junior tree goes into the poetry with beautiful pictures “Border afternoon, when the peach blossom season blooms, when the base season grows trees”, “The old way of the mountain pass is white on the hill side”, … At first glance, the trees sink into the mountains and forests. Only when winter comes, will the flowers bloom simultaneously in the forest, covering the mountains and hills with a rustic and pure white color. The flowers are white, yellow, pistil, and fragrant. The flower is like a camellia flower but much larger, showing off its fragrance among the green foliage. It can be said that there are rare places that have large and perennial grassroots such as Binh Lieu border district (Quang Ninh). Coming here on these December, far away visitors can not help but be amazed between the vast forests of white flowers. The Department is a native plant here since the 1940s. Since 2014, Binh Lieu has implemented the project “Restoring and developing local trees in the period of 2014-2020”, the area of ​​local forest here is about 400ha. The life of the Dao, Tay, San Chi people here is close to the forest, the roots of the trees are used to treat stomach pain; roots and bark used to treat fractures, sprains; The dried shell is used as fuel, … The most valuable product from the base plant is the oil, which is pressed from the seeds and used as cooking oil. Oil contains omega 3,6,9 and many nutrients good for the body not inferior to olive oil, so it can enhance resistance, fight cancer, lose fat, … The harvested pods are then dried, pressed to break the seeds, roasted hot at high temperature and then pressed for oil. The refined base oil obtained without adding any ingredients, has a characteristic aroma and eye-catching color. The residue after pressing can also be used as fertilizer, cleaning shrimp ponds, … Realizing the economic value from oil, Binh Lieu people began to develop oil processing instead of just harvesting the fruits sold to Chinese traders. However, the number of production facilities is small, small-scale. Currently, oil output is from 2,000-3,000 liters / year, the selling price is quite high, about 400,000 VND / liter. This is a typical agricultural product of Binh Lieu, mainly retail in shops. One product in each commune, ward in Quang Ninh. In addition to the specialty of oil, camellia also becomes a unique tourism product of Binh Lieu. The white forest on the occasion of December attracts many tourists to this remote region. The headquarter is becoming the brand of this new and exciting destination. The beautiful images of the season of flowers in the border forest and mountains leave a beautiful impression on visitors. By 2020, the area of ​​local forest will increase to about 1,700 ha. At the same time, according to the proposal, investors from France will open a base oil factory here, opening up export opportunities to the European market for frontier base plants.

That is the area of ​​Dance cave in Ninh Binh. Every year around May and June, when entering the lotus season, the lotus flower blooms, creating an extremely poetic, majestic, overwhelming scene … This clip was posted on Instagram @muacaves and quickly attracted the attention of netizens. In which, many international friends give compliments to the Vietnamese landscape, many people plan to visit here during their trip to Vietnam: – @travel_journal_photo: Too great. Miss Vietnam so much! – @cantalupimartin: I will be coming to Vietnam in March 2022. March is also the lotus season, right? – @daisykim_insta: It looks so peaceful. Before that, the images of this lotus lagoon were “stormed” on the Internet many times. (Photo: @shipped_away, @vietsui)

There is no tree species that can withstand the fierce heat of the land when there are 16 months without a drop of rain (as in 2007). The native vegetation is almost dust. The rare geysers in the ancient mulch forests that I used to know are now gone. The soil flakes off and becomes dust, leaving behind a layer of gravel with no nutrients … Meanwhile, a guy reading books like me does not have much understanding of geology, geography or plants … The dream of flowers like Panduranga pebbles, turns sand and passes slowly through his fingers. But not only me, there are many other people, especially young people who work in science, are constantly thinking and finding ways to combat desertification, covering the barren barren green. of Ninh Thuan land effectively. I was very happy to read from the disaster risk reduction and climate change expert Nguyen Ngoc Huy that: he and his friends in the Living Foundation are researching and experimenting with regeneration. green, proceed to green barren hills, revive forests and vegetation for Ninh Thuan. Holding PhD in disaster risk reduction and climate change at the University of Tokyo (Japan) in 2010, Nguyen Ngoc Huy has more than 15 years specializing in research on natural disasters and climate change in other countries. Asia-Pacific region. Acacia has a strong vitality in dry areas. His FB Huy Nguyen page has become a reputable channel for reporting disaster warning and extreme weather for more than 10 years. Especially during the rainy season – storm – flood in 2020, Nguyen Ngoc Huy’s forecasts proved very accurate and timely, helping people in impending natural disaster areas to foresee, to take steps to prepare and prepare. appropriate room, minimizing the loss of life and property. In addition, he has established and participated in a number of groups to help and improve the environment in the face of the extreme impacts of La Nina or the Solar process in the country … In Ninh Thuan, Huy’s program and the Living Fund have two main activities. One is afforestation with the participation of indigenous peoples and the Provincial Forest Conservation Management Board (MB). Second is a cultural activity combining afforestation with the participation of people outside Ninh Thuan. Their aim is to create vegetation first, and then bring in the trees. But because the people’s goats and sheep graze eating socks, threatening to gnaw everything, they plan to have to plant trees over the canopy and cover the vegetation close to the rice field. In the immediate future, in 2021, the Living Fund group plans to experiment with 10 hectares, planting about 20,000 trees, mainly Neem trees and Thanh That trees. Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Huy said: “Thanh That tree has been tested by the forest protection board, so we can confidently plant it.” Neem, which is an exotic tree, like Sau Dau, has long been proven to be a “champion” tree that can withstand drought, which can grow very well on arid Ninh Thuan. However, this plant, up to now, has been extracted medicinal ingredients for the production of toothpaste, pesticides, cosmetics … but has not brought about significant benefits, except for the creation of green arrays. The Neem tree is quite large, but can not take any wood. Firewood also does not. Its leaves are bitter and poisonous, and goats and sheep do not eat. Moreover, under the Neem canopy, there is no native vegetation or tree species that can symbiotic. Although planting Neem can create green patches, Neem trees can grow on dry land but cannot solve the problem of soil retention and anti-desertification. Sharing with Nguyen Ngoc Huy and the Living Fund team, I think indigenous Tree can be a viable solution. Cay Dep also has many other names such as Keo Dau, Binh Linh, Tran Apple, Apple Nhon, Flea, Keo Worm … It has the scientific name of Leucaena Leucocephala (Lam.) De Wit; Fabaceae, Fabales, grows in the tropics. In Ninh Thuan and many other rural areas, trees are often planted as fences. The canopy is wide, the bark is gray. The leaves are twofold, with potted glands on grade 1 stalks (a typical feature of the virgins subfamily). Flower head to head, white corolla. The fruit forms clusters. When the seeds are green, they can be eaten and are often used as medicine for worms (when I was a child I ate them all the time, each time I boiled the whole pot), when the fruit was ripe, the seeds turned dark brown. Wikipedia notes: “It is also a very efficient plant for nitrogen fixation, with masses greater than 500 kg / ha per year. The fruit and acacia leaves can be used as animal by-feed. Ecology can regenerate seeds very well, so people often use Acacia as a pioneer tree for forest rehabilitation. Easy to live and for wide canopy, Acacia is widely grown as a fence. Acacia seeds will be scattered on land that has lost the properties of forest soil, germinating Acacia and will gradually improve the soil properties here, creating conditions for other trees to grow. […] Acacia grows well in well drained soils, less acidic, and can adapt to salty and coastal soils. Rooster is very drought tolerant but does not tolerate waterlogging, especially when young “. All the characteristics are described in the document proving that D Chop (Keo Dau) is very suitable for being a native tree species creating green patches for the recovery of vegetation in Ninh Thuan. In the years 1980 – 1990, the dried flat beans were collected by Ninh Thuan people and used a lot to make the prices (long, small, chewy stalks) to replace green beans, black beans, which are quite expensive. This proves that Keo Dau is easy to germinate. Acacia Seeds are easy to collect in large quantities so that they can be used as a source of seed bombs to spread on barren hills and wasteland in the early rainy season. Pile roots, deeply ingrained, resistant to drought, can grow in meager holes stuck between rocks, with little rainfall left behind. When growing, it will keep mountains and hills for this meager amount of land and water, enabling other shrubs to grow. Growing Acacia Rooster, certainly goats and sheep will have a favorite dish. However, woody trees regenerate buds and leaves quickly, so if protected well, this is not a concern. In the fences, bushes, when this plant has stood on its feet, vines such as leprechaun, vase, or flowers of five colors … are also very easy to symbiotic and develop. Fortunately, when I transferred the information and hesitantly suggested it, Huy Nguyen and his team were both quite interested. Huy Nguyen texted back: “I have passed your suggestions to the Forest Expert of the Living Fund. He will discuss with the local people and planters to find a way to experiment.” Hopefully, with the suitability and rapid growth of this indigenous tree species, the opportunity to revive the pioneer vegetation for Ninh Thuan will be closer. And from that, the indigenous genetic resources, other suitable plants will also have the opportunity to reproduce, return the green color, the vegetation, the forest … for the Panduranga plain to reduce the burning sun. Who knows, one day not far away, passing Ninh Thuan during the Tet season, my profuse forest is bursting with gold, causing travelers to collapse, passersby and souls …

As noted by the reporter of the News, the rows of palanquin trees bloomed “dyed purple” on many routes such as Cong Hoa (Tan Binh district), Le Trong Tan (Binh Tan district connecting Tan Phu district), Hoang Sa. (District 1 connects District 3), Truong Sa (Binh Thanh District connects Phu Nhuan District), Vo Van Kiet (District 5), Mai Chi Tho (Thu Duc City) … make many people excited. The mausoleum is a feature of Hanoi’s streets, but now Ho Chi Minh City has it. The mausoleum “purple dye” many routes in Ho Chi Minh City. Ms. Doan Thu Phuong (living in Tan Phu district) said: “Every morning, I pass Cong Hoa Street, seeing the blooming flowers of the mausoleum is very poetic and beautiful. Taking advantage of the time when stopping the red light, looking at the bright flowers quickly is enough to make the spirit elated and a little bit of peace of mind ”. Below are a bunch of pictures of lilies on the streets of Ho Chi Minh City: Lentil has many different colors, such as purple, pink, light white … The purple color of the mausoleum spreads on Cong Hoa Street (Tan Binh District). Lilies usually grow in clusters at the ends of branches, with a length of 20-30cm. Each flower when blooming spread wide and is made up of 6 thin, light paper petals. Tomb flowers are planted along the two sides of the Nhieu Loc – Thi Nghe canal of Hoang Sa and Truong Sa streets (District 1 and Binh Thanh District). The two sides of Mai Chi Tho street (Thu Duc city) are also planted with many mausoleum trees. Flamboyant flowers on the 16th street, Binh Hung Hoa ward, Binh Tan district. In addition to streets, mausoleum is also planted in front of many schools in Ho Chi Minh City.

The ancient Egyptians turned countless cats into mummies, and even built the world’s first “pet cemetery”. These cemeteries have a history of nearly 2000 years, with most of the cats buried there wearing iron and bead necklaces. So why did cats have such a high status in ancient Egypt? The ancient Greek historian Herodotus has even recorded that the ancient Egyptians shaved their eyebrows to show respect when their cats died. In 2018, the Smithsonian Asian Art Museum in Washington, DC, USA hosted an exhibition on the importance of cats in ancient Egypt. Many exhibitions have revealed to everyone the origin of this veneration – ancient Egyptians believed that gods and rulers should have cat-like qualities. Specifically, the ancient Egyptians believed that cats had some ideal personalities: on the one hand, they would love, nurture their children and be very loyal; on the other hand, they can also be very aggressive, independent, and assertive. To the ancient Egyptians, these traits made cats seem like a special animal and deserved attention, which may explain why they built so many statues involving cats. Sphinx (sphinx) is a statue next to Kafra Pyramid, 73 meters long and looks like the head of a man and the body of a lion. This is possibly the most famous statue in ancient Egypt, although historians do not know why the ancient Egyptians made this giant statue. Similarly, Sakhmet, the goddess of war and powerful medicine in Egyptian mythology, is also depicted as a female lion or a lion-headed girl in a blood-red dress. She is also considered a protector, especially at dawn and dusk. Another goddess, Bastet, is often depicted as a lion or a cat. The ancient Egyptians believed that the cat was their divine relic. She used to be the goddess of war in Lower Egypt, due to her resemblance to the lion goddess Sekhmet in Upper Egypt, she gradually changed from the god of war to the guardian of the family, symbolizing warmth and family fun. The ancient Egyptians were particularly fond of cats, possibly because they were extremely capable of hunting, especially rats and snakes. Researchers at University College London say that ancient Egyptians even named their children after cats or gave them names meaning cats – for example naming girls “Mitt. “(means cat). It is not clear when cats began to be domesticated in Egypt, but archaeologists have uncovered some ancient graves of cats and kittens dating back to 3800 BC. However, many studies have shown that this obsession is not limited to love. There is archaeological evidence that the ancient Egyptians’ passion for cats had a more cruel side. Between 700 BC and 300 AD, ancient Egypt probably formed a cat industry, first breeding large numbers of kittens, then killing them and making mummies for burial. with human mummies. In a study published in Scientific Reports in 2020, scientists performed micro-CT x-rays of animal mummies in ancient Egypt, including cat mummies. Through the scan, the researchers were able to understand the cat’s bone structure in detail and the materials used in its mummification process. When the researchers received the scans, the cat used for the mummification was in much smaller condition than expected. “It was a very young cat, but we didn’t realize that prior to scanning because most of the mummies (about 50%) were made of cloth,” study author at Swansea University, Wang UK, said Professor Richard Johnston. “When we saw it on the screen, we realized it was still very small when it died” – at less than 5 months old, the cat’s neck It was artificially broken. Mary-Ann Pools Wegner, associate professor of Egyptian archeology at the University of Toronto in Canada, said that many animal mummies were actually used as sacrifices to ancient Egyptian gods. This is a way to quench your anger or ask the gods for help in addition to a verbal prayer. But until now, we still don’t know why the ancient Egyptians wanted to buy cats for mummies during funerals.

Taking advantage of the 30/4 holiday, many people take their children to play at the Saigon Zoo and Botanical Garden (District 1). Recorded by reporters of News Newspaper on April 30, famous entertainment and tourist spots in the city such as Reunification Palace, Notre Dame Cathedral, Ho Chi Minh City Central Post Office, Nguyen Van Binh Book Street The Saigon Zoo and the War Remnants Museum were all deserted, only a few visitors took pictures and quickly left. Ms. Nguyen Thi Anh Hoa, Deputy Director of the Department of Tourism of Ho Chi Minh City, said that the new normal period from the beginning of the year until now, the city has about 40-50% of tourism businesses operating again. Currently, the tourism industry of Ho Chi Minh City has also entered a recovery phase, promoting domestic tourism demand stimulus programs, especially promoting demand stimulus programs during the peak travel season on April 30 and 1/5 to attract tourists to Ho Chi Minh City. However, when the COVID-19 epidemic reappeared, the tourism industry in Ho Chi Minh City faced more difficulties. Specifically, the number of visitors to tourist attractions and entertainment in the city will decrease, summer tours are also moved by customers … Currently, all travel and entertainment establishments Services, restaurants, hotels … have re-enabled the epidemic prevention system according to the general rules of the Ministry of Health and the tourism industry, ensuring safety for visitors when visiting and traveling in Ho Chi Minh City. Ho Chi Minh. News Newspaper would like to send pictures of sparse tourists in Ho Chi Minh City on the first day of holidays, April 30 and May 1: The ticket booth at the Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens had no buyers because people were concerned about the COVID-19 epidemic. War Remnants Museum has very few visitors on April 30. Many tourists took pictures in the central post office area of ​​Ho Chi Minh City and quickly left because of concerns about the COVID-19 epidemic. The sights of Notre Dame Cathedral in the COVID-19 epidemic season are also few people and tourists visiting. On April 30, the two-story buses in Ho Chi Minh City “lying dormant” waiting for guests because Ho Chi Minh City had a suspected case of COVID-19 infection in the community. Ho Chi Minh City’s book street is also unusually quiet on the first day of the holidays April 30 and May 1. Banners and slogans recommending the COVID-19 epidemic prevention guide have been erected quite a lot at tourist attractions in Ho Chi Minh City to remind visitors to raise awareness of epidemic prevention. Tourists visiting and traveling in Ho Chi Minh City are also serious about wearing anti-epidemic masks. The central area of ​​Ho Chi Minh City is also empty of traffic on April 30.

Here, in addition to enjoying ripe green strawberries and attractive dishes made from many species of fish, visitors can also experience and relax with country life. In particular, visitors are also delighted to “check in” in the cool atmosphere of the fruit garden and immense green melaleuca forests. Mr. Duong Van Chau (living in Ca Mau province), said that when visiting the strawberry garden, he and his family members feel happy and comfortable. “This will be one of the unforgettable memories of my family during this holiday”, Mr. Chau shared Here are some pictures at the green strawberry garden with fruit that many people enjoy “check in”: Mr. Liem’s ​​green and fruit-filled strawberry garden is chosen by many people as his holiday destination Ripe and wrong strawberries are one of the attractions for tourists Guests enjoy the cool country air beside the bamboo beds under the strawberry root Young visitors enjoy when “check in” at the strawberry garden

The wood stove in the corner of the 5th floor of Ms. Mai Vuong’s family. In the photo, Ms. Vuong’s mother is wrapping banh chung for Tet. At first, the idea of ​​building a wood stove on the 5th floor of Ms. Vuong was opposed by her husband for fear of fire and explosion, causing heat to pour downstairs … But after hearing her persuasion, Ms. Vuong’s husband – an architect, Find out reasonable solutions for the wood stove on the 5th floor of the house. The kitchen was built with refractory bricks by the family, built away from the wall, creating an open slot to reduce the heat of the oven. Kitchen smoke is led up to the roof through a chimney 1m away from the roof. The stove is in a fixed area, the firewood is kept in a separate area to avoid the ashes scattered on flammable items. At the same time, the whole house is equipped with a smoke alarm system, each floor is equipped with a fire extinguisher. The 5th floor area of ​​Ms. Vuong’s family is also a space with an open side, instead of being enclosed in 4 walls. Here, in addition to the wood stove, she also sets a dining table, grows flowers for family and friends to eat, drink tea, and chat with. On the Facebook group, the AHN account said: “My family is okay, but it’s too dangerous for the surrounding houses if anything happens. My house cooks from itself, the electric system switches itself off and cooks at night. After that, you have to unplug all the wires from the socket “. “The front of the house is empty space, there is no house behind the house with 5 floors”, Ms. Vuong explained before the ideas that the kitchen could endanger the surrounding community. The wood stove is located on the 5th floor with open space. After building a kitchen, she returned to her hometown to buy galangal, rice husks, peanut shells, and collect longan firewood from her garden for fuel. The old cast iron pots in the past were also “spared” to Hanoi to cook rice. “I really like the kitchen up here, so every time I have time I go to the 5th floor to cook for family and friends to come and play. I make all the dishes every day from the kitchen, from cooking rice to fish storage, boiling meat, baking dishes … There are rustic dishes that only wood cookers can do, also my friends come to play at home. For example, burnt rice from a cast iron pot, ”shared Ms. Vuong. Thanks to the wood stove, last Tet, her family was able to cook 4 pots of banh chung. From fried beef … … until fried beans are cooked on a wood stove. The kitchen is built of flame retardant material. The wood stove of Ms. Vuong after sharing on Facebook received many compliments and expressed her excitement. There are also many opinions that the wood stove only satisfies the taste of the country for a moment, but it entails many other inconveniences in cleaning the pots, smoke in the eyes, hot when cooking in the summer, especially. especially the risk of fire and explosion. However, for someone who likes country feeling like Vuong, those shortcomings can be completely overcome. “To me, cooking with wood stove is very relaxing and enjoyable” – Ms. Vuong said.

In the midst of modern life with bustling streets, somewhere in the heart of the capital, we still encounter images that are echoing from a time in the past …

… as reminding people to slow down, to glimpse nostalgia and reflect on a Hanoi with so many changes over the years.

The time to imprint on the roofs covered with moss, where the tumultuous lane has many changes.

Nostalgic features appear on the folds of houses in the old town, on the faces of people with thousands of years old.

Hanoi is a bit serious but equally charming as Hanoi girls.

The peaceful moments of Hanoi during the Christmas season make people feel like they feel relieved.

Transient in the deep gaze of the Hanoians, there are still many things that have not changed despite the years passing.

Rainy streets have become a very unique specialty of Hanoi and each person has a different way of enjoying it.

Every year, Hanoi goes through many flower seasons, each season is beautiful and poetic. If you are a Hanoian, someone has never embraced a bunch of Chrysanthemums in your hand – a delicate and delicate flower.

A feeling of peace in the chaos of modern urban life when we suddenly encounter a very simple and dear image.
