Na Hang is characterized by a mountainous district of Tuyen Quang province, the terrain is strongly dissected with many craggy high mountains and many valleys. Shan Tuyet tea growing communes are located at high altitude, in which, Hong Thai commune has the highest point above 1,200 m, so the content of tannin and soluble substances in Shan Tuyet Na Hang tea is high. Due to its high altitude, Na Hang district has a cool climate all year round, with an average annual humidity of 85%, a large temperature range of day and night (from 10-15 degrees Celsius).

58. Ancient citadel, the King taught the story

Going a long distance, Van felt like he was walking into a misty area, passing a big road, with some distant mountains blowing cold, blurry. The sky runs very slowly and is murky. Through the dark mist, Van saw a very big goal, as if it were built of black brown brick, the gate of the Citadel was as big and majestic as a hundred times that of the Citadel gate on the Tran. Van brought a younger brother, but he seems to be being reminded of something by a critic, but has not been allowed to enter the Citadel temporarily.

Van went through and saw a large yard, cold and empty, with no one. Then suddenly appeared a tall, majestic attire, hat, belt like a dragon, a black brown shirt, a hat quite similar to that of Emperor Jade Emperor. Looking at him big, beautiful, sitting on a chair shaped like a dragon fighting. Van told me, I do not know which person is in the Ten Hades, or this person is Phong Do Dai.

He both taught, reminded, instructed Van, virtuous, strict, but not harsh, like a place with karmic conditions. The owner of Thanh Bao about building and repairing something, making a three-door gate, decorated in dark color, looking over but modest. Van stood below, looked up to meet the King, but found himself small and small. After the story, in his heart happily, Van turned in the direction of his right hand, penetrating deep inside, a vast and vast area dim. Going forever without seeing anyone, the wind pushes from where it sounds cold. Van thinks about his brother, maybe it has been a long time. Van took a breath, his feet did not touch the ground, glided over the dew and soared.
