Lilies, also known as lilies, lilies, lilies, etc., are popular flowers, grown in many parts of the world. The shape of this flower is true to its name, when it blooms completely like a loudspeaker or trumpet. In addition, this flower also means to wish for all the good, luck and success.

I don’t know since when, under the bright sunshine of May, Hanoi capital is adorned with the purple color of mausoleum flowers, which has become a familiar image every summer. Bang Lang is a strong woody plant, the canopy is high and wide, it has all the elements to become a shaded ornamental plant.

The lily-of-the-valley tree appears all over the streets and streets of Hanoi, wherever you go, you will see that purple color in full bloom, bringing a sense of lightness, relaxation, dispelling the heat of summer. Without a strong fragrance like milk flowers or jasmine flowers, lily-of-the-valley flowers attract all eyes by their own uniqueness and charm – an unforgettable beauty. The lily-of-the-valley flower blooms quickly but also quickly fades, it will be bare again, losing the beauty it once had after the summer ends, we can only look and recall that purple color when it was still brilliant. “In what beautiful dress with lotus Green leaves with white flowers and yellow stamens…” In the summer of May, when the first showers poured down signaling the arrival of summer, the lotus ponds also began to reveal the first shy flowers. The lotus flower gives off a cool fragrance that captivates people. Sen has been associated with Vietnam for many generations. Lotus is the symbol, the national flower of Vietnam, symbolizing integrity, uprightness and justice. The lotus is self-born, self-sustaining, and every summer, the lotus stretches out strongly, showing off its fragrance in the mud swamp. Past and present, traditional or modern, lotus has always had a place in the lives of Vietnamese people. The lotus is perhaps the only flower that converges in both the philosophical meaning, the noble life and the rise of a strong will to live like the Vietnamese people who have also experienced the “mud”, I came out of the water and bloomed. Not only that, with the symbolic meaning of purity and nobility, lotus is also a part of Vietnamese beliefs, where there is a lotus there is a Buddha, serenity and peace. The lotus is also the symbol of Vietnamese women in ao dai, with a conical hat on their head, and blooming lotus flowers in their hands, this image makes many boys fall in love and flutter. Amidst the jade-green leaves, hundreds of lotus flowers bloomed, both rustic and beautiful, and elegantly surreal, brightening up a large area.

Every May degree, every street corner, every street in the capital is filled with the red color of phoenix flowers. The red phoenix is ​​a vibrant color full of vitality that makes people’s hearts flutter before its beauty. Besides the name phoenix, this plant is also known as cylindricula, western scallop. In Hanoi, it is not difficult to see the bright red color of phoenix flowers on roads such as Thanh Nien Street, around West Lake or on the banks of the To Lich River,… Phoenix is ​​not a flower, a branch, phoenix is ​​a red sky. The phoenix flowers bloom in clusters like sparks, adorning the streets of Hanoi. In the middle of the red color, the leaves are green, growing on both sides of the stem like a phoenix’s tail. It is often said that when seeing the phoenix tail showing off its color and the sound of cicadas, it is also the time to signal the arrival of summer.

It is associated with many happy and sad memories of a time when she went to school, so the phoenix is ​​also known as “student flower”.

The two sides of the road are dyed purple with mausoleums, so the heart is forever, the car is hesitant to move. Memories of a time when students dreamed rushing back. The petals are thin and light, holding the gong in the wind. The notebook gently presses the petals who give it, but keeps it forever in the student’s age.

Summer is adorned with colorful flowers marking a separate territory that cannot be mixed. The sky is filled with red phoenix. Recovering, agitated, wistfully calling the student’s name. The more radiant and fresh Phuong becomes, the closer the day of parting comes. As much as the children are eager for the summer vacation, the seniors will be quiet, thinking, and sad all the time.

A friend in An Hoa sheep field texted: “You go to Phuoc Trung to take pictures by the mausoleum, lest the flowers die, this year the flowers bloom early”. I was also a bit surprised because at this time the flowers of Nui Tau mausoleum have not yet bloomed, in Phuoc Diem it has just begun, why is it on Phuoc Trung “about to die”? Although the night rain was still light, early in the morning I rode a motorbike to move 8 km from the center of Phan Rang – Thap Cham city (Ninh Thuan province) along National Highway 1A towards Nha Trang to Luong Cach junction in the commune. Ho Hai, Ninh Hai district. Turn left for another 13 km, through quite famous tourist sites that many people know are An Hoa sheep field, Eco-Chi flower garden, to Phuoc Trung. The road connecting National Highway 1A to highland communes, through Phuoc Trung commune to the center of Bac Ai mountainous district is well paved, but it has not been officially identified, called inter-commune or inter-district road. . The sun has also risen, the sky is blue, and a few white clouds are floating across the distant mountains, the scenery is really beautiful. The road here is quite empty of traffic all year round. The feeling of people living in noisy cities, going to the highlands is so wonderful. After the first few rains of the season, the whole area was dry and thirsty as if it was bursting with life. The air is clear, fragrant with the smell of young grass, along the roadside, the burning meadows captivate the young and many photographers who come to check in, have begun to turn green. This is Dong Day village, Phuoc Trung commune, where there is Thanh Son lake with vast grasslands and where many sheep farms are concentrated, the most in Ninh Thuan. This place is still mistakenly called An Hoa sheep field by many people. The road in the direction of Northeast – Southwest slopes gently, bringing us to the end of the far green mountain range, this is Ta Nang mountain with a peak of nearly 1,500 meters. The feeling of going up high when approaching the center of Phuoc Trung commune, crossing a small pass, winding road, going up and down between the hills is also very interesting. Right on the first slope, we saw the bright purple glittering mausoleum beside the road. Climbing up the mound along the road, you will surely burst out when looking at the valley stretching to the side of the mountain full of flowers. Moving through the roads in the center of the commune, around the Song Sat irrigation lake, back to the O Cam bridge, everywhere you go, you will see Bang Lang flowers in full bloom. Bang Lang in Phuoc Trung is also a type of Lau as called by the locals, different from the types of Lang Lang San or Guai. By Thau Lau mausoleum, the body is not straight and has rough thorns. Bang mausoleum here seems to be higher than other places, there are trees growing right on the roadside or trees in the memorial of martyrs of the commune 8-10 meters high. It is possible that because they do not live in populations like in other places, they intercrop with other forest trees, in order to survive and develop, the trees are forced to rise up in a natural way. And like other places, Phuoc Trung Lang Lang does not grow in low-lying plains, but only lives from the foothills up to the mountainside and does not grow too high, passing through the center of the commune towards the district capital. Uncle Ai a few kilometers away, no longer see a living mausoleum. In the dry season, the leaves fall off in the mountains, leaving only the bare branches and branches, but after a few rains, the whole forest suddenly turns yellow as if sprouting young shoots, followed by flower sprouts. It turns out that the flowers bloom sooner or later, depending on how early or late it rains. Bang Lang flowers bloom in clusters, when they first bloom, they are brilliant purple, then the wings gradually turn white. Whether it’s just blooming or at the end of the season, the mausoleum also forms romantic spots. If you climb the hillside to see the flowers, you will also suddenly hear the sound of the bells hanging around the necks of the goats eating the leaves of the forest. Meeting a goat herder asked if anyone had picked this beautiful flower? The Raglai woman calmly said: “Leaving it in the forest for everyone to see is beautiful, it’s not good to take it home as your own. In the village there is also a mausoleum, but it is a tree that has been there since the time of sedentary cultivation and settlement. Anyone who comes here to pluck trees from forest rangers and people will not let them.” Sometimes I see a group of people in the city come up here to see flowers and take pictures. One sister said: “During the epidemic season, crowds are limited in tourist areas, sisters in the family invite each other to come here to see the flowers. The scenery of the mountains and forests in the village is quiet, the ethnic people here are gentle and friendly… the feeling is really interesting…”. In May, go to Phuoc Trung Tomb region, come here to mingle with nature, to see wild flowers and bring back a feeling of relaxation in your heart, your soul seems to be lost in the immense green silence. of the great thousand…

Illustration. My hometown was in the midland hills, at that time the grass was green. The message canopy ran across the hillsides. Under the forest canopy is a world of grass, flowers, myrtle, mussels, peonies… four seasons blooming. On the top of the mountain, there are sparse trees and grass that grow in places. Perched by the gray rocks, the thorny bushes stretched out their green arms in the scorching summer sun. We used to climb hills to rake pine needles, find ripe myrtle and pick leaves from those bushes. People call it the palm tree. I was too young at that time, and I don’t remember who drew it for me. I just know that I can go with my brothers and sisters to the mountains, climb like a baby goat, jump on each cliff to pick leaves, pick but not cut even though the tree has sparse thorns and bleeds. And only pick the leaves of the cake, not too old, not too young. My grandmother said to make delicious jelly and let the tree live for everyone to pick. I like the cool scent of the leaves. Sometimes, after picking, we would run around looking for wild fruits or sit on a large rock, while blooming the leaves, we would look at the village and the tiny river in the distance, holding out our little hands. embracing the sweat-drying face, welcoming the fragrant breezes blowing from the vast fields, dreaming… I love that hill! Love the young pine buds that build green towers lined up on the slopes, the fragrant pine like candles in the sky! Love the giants, grasshoppers and big elephants kicking the brakes, dancing and throwing leaves! Love the sound of howling birds, “catching shrimp braised” in the sky and the cuckoo calling from afar… But love the hill most in the ripe fruit season. Juicy red raspberries in the humid valley by the rocky crevice, clusters of sweet red-purple peonies; The sedum vine hangs tiny purple-pink fruit eyes, black alum, black pearl soup mixed with thorns and inviting thorns… The most interesting thing is that sometimes you open your nose to find the faint scent of ripe fruit, then turn the grass and trees, and catch the flowers. tufts of passion fruit charm or sweet chestnut flowers, sniffing to forget the hungry stomach… Sometimes, our children try to pick sour leaves and acrid fruits to eat. Small green cow’s udder oozes milk, small pomelos, pink and pink, transparent, fragrant, spicy… even the whole fruit is bought full of seeds and tasted… Myrtle season is a paradise for children. Just the other day, the eye-catching purple-pink petals swaying in their hands, in the hair of a few children braided in pigtails, now they turn into fruit while hanging on the branches, showing off their sweet and inviting purple belly… purple and purple… The smiles of children in the mountains and forests… The midland hills gave us delicious food, sweet fruits, raised poor children to grow up in body and soul. I often hum the rhymes as I weave my way through the sparse shrubs or bend down to pick up the pine cones rolling on the carpet of fragrant leaves. In order to remember my homeland later, I often call this the singing hill: There are blue winds Fly through the forest of childhood Where is the sweetness and sweetness Mourning purple sim hillside… Only a song left Keep flying in the nostalgia Wings of time once Wet soft clear spring water… There are steep mountain slopes Sweet white gardenia There is a pine forest that screams I lie on a carpet of fragrant leaves… Miss the misty mountain valley There are wings of clouds and the head of the wind Herd of buffaloes grazing on grass Flowers to open eyes purple pink… From the top of the immense mountain Zoom in on all four sides Seeing the small village far away Loving the old bamboo ramparts… Back to the past years Seeing the kite flying enthusiastically Seeing fragrant sweet potato buried in the kitchen Locusts, grasshoppers fly back… I love summer days Wandering in search of the smell of ripe fruit Sweet wild fruit in the mouth Sorrel leaves in the forest… Fascinated white flower rose Chirping birdsong at the top of the mountain Confused yellow butterfly wings Clap the flash of childhood… … Every time I go to the hill to pick leaves, I like it, even making jelly at home is really fun. Before that, the elder brothers or sisters or grandmothers had prepared a large pot of water to cool, a small pot of sugar syrup, sometimes just begging or hiding some sugar from the house because sugar was scarce that day, sometimes a few drops. sugar cane or holding grass roots… Glove leaves are washed many times by us, drained, dried slightly and then put in a large pot or saucepan to crush with our hands. I remember once, we even washed a pair of rubber slippers and used them as a grinding table, rubbing the leaves vigorously. When the leaves have turned into a green powder, they are wrapped in a white coarse cloth and then dipped in a pot of boiling water to cool, thoroughly dried, and squeezed out. Sometimes, we squeeze in a little bit of clear lime juice from the lime pot she eats betel nut, sometimes we don’t, but it only takes a few minutes for the pot to solidify. Sometimes to cool more, the brothers and sisters take a piece of rain cloth to cover the jelly pot and then the line is dropped to the bottom of the well, a few hours later or overnight to pull it up. Wow, it’s delicious when the green jelly pieces are cut out, dropped into a cup or bowl of sugar water, sprinkled with a little banana or grapefruit essential oil! Sometimes it’s not so “advanced”, my brothers and sisters boil some sugarcane juice, stevia roots, sprinkle some sugar obtained on the jelly and then compete to eat… Wherever you eat, cool your guts, cool your liver there, although there is not enough sweetness to mask the strong smell of fresh leaves. So many years have passed, I still remember the afternoons full of flowers and sunshine under the rustling bamboo shade, we slurped the bowls of cool green jelly like jade. Delicious dishes with a hilly flavor but even more delicious by their own hands. It’s even more delicious when receiving the sparkling smiles of grandmothers and mothers when enjoying the jelly that our children prepare… For decades, I have not returned to that ancient hill country. I don’t know if jelly gloves, sims buy… are there any trees left or erased over the years along with the soaring pine forests for a while. But in me, the grassy hills sing with the flavors of wild fruits, fragrant leaves, the first transparent, green jelly slice I ate… still remain forever in the memory and follow through life!

Sunshine in a corner of the forest Chu Mom Ray is located in two districts of Sa Thay and Ngoc Hoi. Right next to Chu Mom Ray National Park are Cambodia’s Virachey National Park and Laos’ Southeast Ghong Reserve. This is one of 94 special-use forests of Vietnam, has the largest area of ​​primary forest and contains rare genetic resources. In 2004, Chu Mom Ray National Park was recognized as an ASEAN heritage by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. The flora of Chu Mom Ray national forest is rich and diverse in number of species and status. This place has about 1534 species of plants, including 113 rare species of orchids, gymnosperms, oilseeds, conifers, needles, pine, bamboo, rosemary… This place once marked many fierce battles in the period of “cutting along Truong Son to save the country”. Some places in the forest still have traces of trenches, bomb craters… The way to Chu Mom Ray mountain has to go through a long barren hill, the trees are mostly burned for farming It is still the dry season, the fallen leaves cover the path. The road through the forest is quite dangerous There will come a time when you will encounter a flat area on high, called the mausoleum park (another name for the odd cane, different from the purple mausoleum variety). On the way, you will come across the old single bamboo trees …and many precious old trees If you don’t pay close attention, you will think this is a fallen old tree. But no, this is just a strangely shaped stump. You will encounter a wooden nu, a unique natural phenomenon. “Family” of mushrooms inside a tree cavity. If you are tired, try your luck with a tea table from the bamboo of the green forest. And the fresh cool water of the green forest will fuel you to explore the unspoiled nature of Chu Mo Ray.

About 200 km from Saigon, Bu Gia Map National Park is located at the end of the South Truong Son range. This place has a rather special geographical position, which is a transitional place from the Central Highlands to the Southern Delta. To the east of Bu Gia Map is Dak Nong province, to the northwest, it borders Cambodia. I have been to many forests and climbing mountains in Europe and America, but the tropical forests of Southeast Asia (including Vietnam) always have their own charm that is hard to resist. Nature at Bu Gia Map attracts visitors by the rusticity, of the wildest things such as fresh, cool air and clear streams. In particular, this place is also characterized by the primeval forest when there are many rare species of trees such as rosewood, red oak, and cedarwood. Visitors coming here are easily caught up in the rolling, fanciful foliage of ancient trees up to 40-50 m high. Visitors coming here are easily caught up in the rolling, fanciful foliage of the 40-50 m tall old trees. I silently watched the clouds fly alternately in the forest foliage, in the high blue sky. Stepping into the wilderness always gives you a feeling of being nourished, peaceful and elated at the same time. Here, I also learn how to exploit my senses more, feel the natural world more and more attractive. Going through the primeval forests, breathe in the fresh air created by the trees. The air given by nature will make your soul light and relaxed. Nature also always heals our troubles, doesn’t it? The habitat of the humid tropical forest is diverse. There are plants that are used by indigenous people as medicinal herbs, or used in daily life such as giant umbrella tree, mausoleum. The forest also has cool, clear streams that are filtered completely naturally through layers, layers of forest trees and rocks. With low mountainous terrain, the trails here have a moderate slope, quite easy to go. The plants intertwine with the stream create a diversity of landscapes, as well as the habitat of many animals. The biodiversity makes the forest scenery more pure and fresh. I could smell the damp vegetation and the rotten leaves slowly blending into the forest soil, giving off a pungent odor. The deeper you go into the forest, the more strange and curious you will feel. The most interesting thing is probably when being immersed in the rapids and natural lakes in the middle of the forest with the flow originating from Dak Nong province. The clear sound of the stream, the murmuring water helps your soul to be strangely peaceful. This is the time when I let myself float on the pure, blue water. Lakes and streams intertwine with the forest canopy, blending in and out, creating a feeling of friendliness and immersion as if returning to the primitive period. Not only watching the majestic scenery, I also learned about the culinary culture and traditional dishes of the S’tieng and M’nong people such as lam rice, Thuc soup, grilled chicken, stream fish, wild vegetables… Going to pick wild vegetables, collect firewood, catch fish from streams… then set up a kitchen, boil water for tree roots with a mausoleum and cook in the middle of the forest with bamboo tubes. Traditional Thuc Soup (Trau Pung) of the S’tieng includes rattan buds, bitter eggplant, spinach, wild mushrooms and stream fish. Com lam, a traditional dish typical of the cultural identity of the S’tieng people. In the S’tieng language, lam rice is called “Bien man don ka”, which means that sticky rice is cooked into rice in a bamboo tube. This is also an indispensable dish in their holidays and Tet. The S’tieng and M’nong people have a long tradition of association with the mountains and forests. Since ancient times, these ethnic groups have lived along primeval forests and depended on hunting, gathering, and shifting cultivation. Coming here, I also had the opportunity to travel on the beautiful border route. There are 2 main roads to go through Bu Gia Map, DT 741 road and Binh Phuoc province border. The difference is that these two roads can connect to form a circle embracing the forest. Bu Gia Map National Park – the green lung of the Southeast region, is definitely a great experience for anyone who loves nature. There is no phone signal or internet, where you are completely immersed in nature, listening and enjoying the sounds of the mountains. You will feel the breeze on your skin, hear the harmonious singing of birds, smell the fragrance of plants, taste the sweetness of the air… Note before the journey You must contact the managers of Bu Gia Map in advance. They will assign a guide to lead you to the desired location. Without a guide, rangers and border guards will not allow you to enter the forest. In addition, you need to prepare all the basic items when entering the forest: – Shoes with good adhesion, climbing ability, bring slippers (when not going to the forest), long socks that can be draped over pants to avoid squeezing, insects – Comfortable jungle clothes, good elasticity, swimwear for bathing – Snacks and drinks – Common medical drugs, insect repellents, extractors

In the early days of May, Lang Lang flowers begin to bloom all over the streets of Hanoi. The flowers of the mausoleum make people feel fluttered by the immense purple color. Lang Lang flower originated in South Asia but is now present throughout Southeast Asia, including in many major cities of Vietnam.

In which, some streets such as Kim Ma, Dao Tan, Nguyen Thai Hoc, Hoang Quoc Viet, Tho Nhuom, Dinh Tien Hoang… are the places where the most trees are planted.

Flowers in this area have light purple color, small flowers, spacing of clusters are sparse Along the sidewalk of Dao Tan area (Ba Dinh) is also shaded by mausoleum flowers The lily of the valley flowers on this road impress with their deep purple-pink color The density of blooming flowers is also thicker than that of Lang Lang on other roads Meanwhile, the flowers of the mausoleum at the edge of Sword Lake bloom quite a bit It’s almost mid-May, but many trees next to the lake have only a few colorful flowers Nguyen Phong Sac Street (Cau Giay) in the summer becomes more lively because of the lilac trees in bloom Tall trees, wide foliage, purple flowers have brought the road a nostalgic beauty Dandelion flowers love sunlight, so the hotter the weather, the more brilliant the flowers will bloom However, the lily flowers quickly fade, just a few days after blooming, the flowers will fade and start to fall Although it only blooms for a short time, the gentle flower color of the mausoleum has brought a poetic beauty in the early days of summer.

Lilac flowers are typical of the tropics. In Hanoi, the color of mausoleum flowers is a sign that summer is coming. In the early days of May, mausoleum blooms in many corners of the capital streets.

Rows of mausoleum trees on Ring Road 3.5, Ha Dong.

Under the sun… In May, the sun shines brightly on all roads. Early in the morning, the sun was already rising. Like this morning, the golden sun shines brightly, shining brighter than the blue patches of the sky and white clouds floating in the air. The streets I still go through every day to go to work, the cicadas have played the low-pitched music, the phoenix has sporadic flowering branches and the purple color of the mausoleum. The street suddenly seemed strangely different every day for the summer to the season. Sunny. Very sunny, especially at noon, everyone seems to be rushing on the road to “hide” from the sun. And I, in the depths of my heart, suddenly realized something real, and very real. It was early summer, on my way home from work in the midday sun, and strangely, I missed the sun. Seeing the sun suddenly miss the sun, the nostalgia seems to burst with the silence of worries with myself, with daily joys and sorrows… My birthday is on a day in May. I remember being busy when my mother told me that I must have been born in the sun, so I was black. And I innocently told myself to be like plants and flowers in the garden, growing up in the sun every day. It’s funny to remember the “young and buffalo” time in my hometown, because the sun gave me black skin through many sunny seasons, to forever remember the verses “Homeland is a bunch of sweet star fruit …”, or “Who told the blanket to be a blanket?” buffalo is suffering / I dreamily listen to birds singing high above…”. Yes, it’s like the earth, like the grass, but it’s good, struggling with the sun to cherish in my heart a pure and pure life, reaching up to the vast space, enjoying the sunshine and singing the song of fertility four Seasons… But think back, look at yourself. I used to be in the sun in the field on the beach, I used to rush on the village road with the blazing sun to go to school. Then just like that, I grew up and I went, saying goodbye to my hometown with the village’s bamboo ramparts disappearing to go to the city to study and find work and make a living. I “escaped” gardens, rice fields, rivers, boats and even kites full of wind in the clear blue sky, running away from the sun. And now, every day, I “hide” in working and living rooms with air conditioning or other amenities in the hot season in each passing day. But when I return to my hometown, in the early morning, I see the pure rays of sunshine and the dew drops of last night still wet in my mother’s vegetable garden, or the sunset sun shining in the dark purple horizon in the field. village. Sunshine for the green of the leaves, sunshine on the cheerful faces of children, on the smiles of the people in my hometown in the harvest season… She is innocent, she can see sunshine and sunshine everywhere. Suddenly, I found that, even though it was sunny, I was cool in the midst of the lovely countryside. Therefore, there are times when I miss the sun, an unrelenting nostalgia… In the early summer months of this year, I miss home, miss my hometown with immense sunshine in the distant fields. Homeland is harvesting rice. The people in my hometown are working hard in the fields from early morning until hot noon, or do not finish work until late at night. Sunshine is still sincere and transparent “participating” in their lives, a natural thing. The people of my hometown are still as sincere as the salty soil of the alluvial soil, like the plants and trees that work diligently in the sun to look forward to the bountiful seasons, so that life is full and peaceful for each passing day. Then, every time a meal, whether at home or in the field on the beach, the fatigue disappears, and the joy mingles with the sweet aroma in the pure white rice grains. I see more sunshine again… In the early summer days of May, the sun is still steadily starting each morning this morning. I wrote for me on my birthday, just like the melody of Trinh’s love song “Sunshine” is still earnestly “The color of the sun or the color of your eyes”, “The grass suddenly turns sunny”… Sunny fading into the vast memory. And I’m having a nostalgia. The sun gives me the desire to write something, after I finish writing it, I feel like it’s never been enough. Summer sun!…
