These days, the road surface temperature is very high, especially on roads without perennial trees such as Nguyen Chi Thanh, Truong Chinh, Trang Tien streets… the temperature always fluctuates from 40 – 50 degrees Celsius. In order to escape the “burning” heat, many passers-by have chosen the route to go through some streets with shady trees. Walking under these ancient tree-lined streets, it is possible to find some fresh and cool air in a series of horrible suffocating days. The line of beautiful, straight black star trees on Lo Duc Street brings a feeling of closeness to nature and shade for the whole neighborhood on hot summer days. Ly Dao Thanh Street has two rows of old trees that always give shade to the road surface. Phan Dinh Phung Street has rows of ancient green crocodiles. Summer comes, the whole street is immersed in a cool space under thick foliage, making it difficult for the midday sun to penetrate. The temperature recorded at noon time on streets with many old trees was much lower than the temperature measured at the same time on roads without trees. The shady tree line helps pedestrians to somewhat reduce the “burning skin” heat. People with bare heads, walk on Phan Dinh Phung street at noon without fear of the sun. The shade of green trees on Tran Phu street not only creates a beautiful landscape but also becomes a “shield” on hot Hanoi days. The green canopy blocks the sun, helps to regulate the air, and combats the stuffiness of harsh summer weather.

So they are very regretful and… – Wish the city had another more suitable option while still retaining the green area? – Exactly! – So according to you, in order to retain the green area, what kind of park renovation must be done? – Harmony between old and new! – What do you mean? – As a resident has suggested, the park should be designed based on the location of available trees, not cut down or relocated.

It is taking the measurement of the foot to make shoes to fit, not making shoes and then cutting feet to fit. – It can be any type of genus, as long as the old trees are not cut down or removed. – Actually, it’s not a new invention that many other places have made.

Therefore, creating harmony with nature and being very different, no other place is the same! – Maybe the city should move in that direction and… just give it a try!

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

Kim Lien dormitory area (Dong Da, Hanoi) is one of the oldest and oldest dormitories in the capital. Here, dozens of houses have old trees growing through the house, quite unique and fancy. This unique and unique architecture probably exists only here with about a dozen houses with trees growing on the premises. People here have long lived with this image, many families have customized the old trees located on the premises of the house into a place to hang furniture and decorate for living. The big, rough trunks of 2-3 people hug, the canopy spreads like giant umbrellas to protect the houses here. Restaurants and shops take advantage of trees to become an ideal place to do business. Many houses have fenced around the tree, turning the old trees into a familiar “member” of the family. However, when the rainy season comes, the households are afraid of the big tree branches falling down, cracking the wall and damaging the house. On hot sunny days, these green trees are like giant umbrellas creating shade, helping to cool down the old dormitory houses here. When repairing and renovating these houses, people have “depended” on the position of the mother-of-pearl tree, designing the corrugated iron roof to make room for the tree to grow and create shade for the house.

Having to go out on the hottest days is a nightmare. But because of work, many people are forced to move in outdoor temperatures up to more than 40 degrees Celsius.

It is also thanks to the elevated railway project that many people in traffic can enjoy the cool part of the road. In particular, when stopping at a red light, you do not have to suffer from the scorching heat of the summer heat. After officially entering the summer, the shady part is created from the elevated railway works, people take advantage of it to enjoy. If you go out in the summer, surely the “heaven” part of the road has a higher traffic density than “hell”. In some roads, the “heaven” part of the road is usually reserved for cars, but because they want to avoid the sun, many motorcyclists go in. Image of stopping at a red light at an intersection in Hanoi in the middle of a hot summer. A clear line separating “heaven” and “hell”. Standing in the shade waiting to pass the intersection is no longer a strange thing. The roads without the shade from the elevated railway, the “heaven” is created from the old trees in Hanoi. Experiencing but burning moments with the hot road surface, stopping at red lights in shady places is what many people choose. Many motorbikes, when stopping at red lights, have chosen to stand under the shade of a tree, tens of meters from the prescribed line to wait for the red light. In the afternoon and early afternoon, when the outdoor temperature sometimes reaches over 40 degrees Celsius, these images are not too difficult to find at traffic junctions in the city.

Period 1: Nine trees per thousand years at Voi Phuc temple Elephant Phuc is a temple in Thang Long, the four towns of the old Thang Long citadel. Outside the temple gate, there are two elephants kneeling on the ground, so it is called Voi Phuc Temple. In the temple, there are nine trees which are handed down to be planted after the construction of the temple. Up to now, it is over a thousand years old. These are trees recognized by VACNE as the first Vietnamese heritage tree of Hanoi. Mr. Nguyen Van Tung is in the only living “old” man at the Elephant Phuc-Thuy Khue Temple. Photo: Kien Nghia honors When coming to find out about these “tools”, we determined that we need to go to Voi Phuc Temple on Thuy Khue street. Because Hanoi has two Voi Phuc temples, one in Thuy Khue street (the old relic of Thuy Chuong village) and one on Kim Ma street (in the past in Thu Le village). Mr. Nguyen Van Tung, 88 years old, Head of the Management Board of Elephant Phuc – Thuy Khue said that this temple was built to worship Linh Lang Dai Vuong, the fourth prince of King Ly Thanh Tong. Legend has it that in the past, Prince Linh Lang, who had made merits in the resistance war against the Song invaders, died in the 11th century. After the prince died, people set up Linh Lang Dai Vuong temple in many places. on Thang Long land, including Voi Phuc – Thu Le temple and Voi Phuc – Thuy Khue, up to now, they have a lifespan of nearly 10 centuries. “Elephant Phuc-Thuy Khue Temple is ranked as a national architectural and artistic relic in 1986” – Mr. Tung said. Mr. Nguyen Van Tung said that, according to the tradition of our country, when building a communal house, a temple or a pagoda, the elders always plant trees such as banyan, bodhi and mum. At Voi Phuc-Thuy Khue Temple, after building the temple, the elders chose to plant a tree, because it is a kind of tree that is easy to live, shade and suitable for the soil here. “The reason of planting here is 9 trees, because according to the concept of Eastern culture, number 9 is eternal, symbolizing the fullness and fullness of the sacred temple” – Mr. Tung said. Then the Head of the Management Board of Elephant Phuc Temple – Thuy Khue shared that he was born again in this land, so from a young age, he saw the lush green trees, standing tall in the temple. Later, having the opportunity to stand on a high-rise building looking down, Mr. Tung saw the vast canopy of these ancient trees as if they were to adhere to adulthood (nine dragons painting pearls). The gem here is the temple of Linh Lang Dai Vuong. Nearly a thousand years ago, the trees in Voi Phuc not only made majesty but also brought shade and fruit to the ancient temple. In the summer, the temple courtyard has almost no sunlight because of the interlocking canopy, only when it is very sunny, can a little sunlight slip through the leaves. There was a time when the heat was over 40 degrees, everyone sitting in the temple still did not need a fan. In the spring, the flowers bloom white, giving off a faint scent. Whenever there is a strong wind blowing from West Lake, flowers fall white on the roof of the temple, the temple courtyard and the front and back grounds. By the time it is ripe, the fruit is plump, it looks beautiful. Before coming to the Elephant Phuc Thuy Khue Temple, we went to VACNE to work to know about the trees honored as “heritage trees” in the capital area. Mr. Phung Quang Chinh, Vice President of VACNE said: “In 2010, to celebrate 1,000 years of Thang Long- Hanoi, we have examined the old trees in the capital to honor them as heritage trees. Vietnam. VACNE sees that the nine trees in Elephant Phuc temple stand out above all, so it is honored as the first Vietnamese heritage tree of Hanoi ”. Following Mr. Tung, we visited the last tree that was still alive. The tree is currently healthy, with a few people hugging its base, and the leaves are green. “Through testing, this tree does not suffer from pests and diseases like other plants. After eight trees died, we planted new trees in them. New saplings grow well and bear fruit every year ”- shared Mr. Tung. Regret At the meeting with Mr. Nguyen Van Tung that day, just entering the story, he told us that for old trees, the direction to protect trees is very important. Then, sadly, the head of the Management Board with 35 years of supervision of the Elephant Phuc Temple – Thuy Khue shared that they are not knowledgeable about forestry or cultivation, so they do not know how to take care of trees. For many years, the tree still lived in the temple, the men only watched over and prevented outsiders from picking fruit, breaking branches …, not knowing the “health” situation of the tree. Mr. Tung said, after 9 trees were honored, a year later, they began to find out that there were trees that did not grow as well as before. As of 2013, several other trees showed similar symptoms, so Mr. Tung reported the incident to VACNE. VACNE sent people to check, discovered the fungal condition on the trunk, so it took samples to check. After that, VACNE introduced experts from the Vietnam Forest Institute to treat trees. Through the review, the Vietnam Forest Institute proposed to invite an Australian expert to deal with the condition of the tree. Experts have injected drugs directly into the stem to kill pests and provide more nutrients for plants. Initially, the plants were green again, but after a while they wilted and then shed all their leaves. At the same time, some other plants also wilted their leaves and were treated again like the previous plants. But by 2014, eight diseased trees could not be cured, so there is only one tree left alive. Listening to the above story, we asked in 2011, the Elephant Phuc-Thuy Khue temple was greatly restored, will this affect the trees? Hearing that, Mr. Tung answered that the restoration, if any, would also have a negligible impact, and the main reason was due to the old trees, many trees were eaten by worms inside without knowing. “After the tree dies, we ask the responsible authorities to lower the tree to replace the new saplings in that position. When sawing the tree, it was revealed that many of the trunks were hollowed out by worms. We are just the custodians of the temple, have no expertise in taking care of the trees, so when the tree was eaten by worms, we could not detect it. The experience is that it is necessary to have solutions to take care of and detect pests and diseases in order to prolong the life of old trees ”- Mr. Tung said. (There’s more)

Mr. Giap Van Huan (on the right), Chang village, Viet Tien commune, planted Thai jackfruit in a net house with an inert iron frame.

According to the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Viet Yen district, from 2016 up to now, the district has been supported and invested more than 24.4 billion VND to build 116 mesh houses, high-tech agricultural production (CNC) film houses, each model is 1,000 m2 wide. In which, the Provincial People’s Committee supported 12,3 billion VND to build 40 models; the district supported people and cooperatives with 12.1 billion dong to build 76 models. Thereby, 100 net houses, membrane houses in Viet Tien commune, only Minh Tam General Agricultural Cooperative (referred to as Minh Tam Cooperative) has 30 houses to be built and put into use.

Despite a large investment, after a period of operation, most of the film houses, especially net houses, are ineffective. Currently, most of the net houses are left empty and torn. Many households voluntarily dismantle the steel frame and change the crop structure, wrong for the original purpose.

After the newspaper stated, the People’s Committee of Viet Yen district instructed the District Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to coordinate with the People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune to review and inspect the reality, invite Minh Tam Cooperative and the households to change the purpose of using net houses by themselves. job.

Mr. Ngo Xuan Trung, Vice Chairman of Viet Tien Commune People’s Committee, said on April 6 and April 14, the functions of the district and the commune People’s Committee invited representatives of Minh Tam Cooperative (the unit assigned by the District People’s Committee to be in charge of net houses, diaphragm houses in the area) and 9 households using net houses against the original commitment (in two villages of Chang and Ha) to the office to clarify the reasons for conversion and production orientation.

The torn net house area of ​​Minh Tam Cooperative has yet to be repaired.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Tu, Director of Minh Tam Cooperative, said that the reason for the rapid failure of the net is that the net house is not suitable for the sub-region here. Because this area often occurs strong winds that make the net quickly torn and torn. Minh Tam Cooperative as well as other households have invested in repairing, replacing but still ineffective. Due to the loss of intensive farming of vegetables (low selling price, crop failure …), farmers and cooperatives have changed crops.

At the working sessions, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Viet Yen district and the People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune requested Minh Tam Cooperative and the households to self-overcome, remove perennial trees, replant vegetables, tubers and fruits according to the original commitment. . The time to complete the remedy is before May 30, 2021.

The People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune also informs households participating in the project of building plastic houses and net houses in the area: If any household does not do this, they will be recorded in writing and sanctioned according to regulations. Households whose contracts have expired will be liquidated by the District Department of Agriculture and Rural Development and the People’s Committee of Viet Tien Commune.

Requesting Minh Tam Cooperative to remove torn, damaged nets and cover new nets before April 10; cleaning roads, canals and ditches in the net house area before April 24, 2021; directing staff to regularly check, grasp and guide member households and associate with the cooperative to grow vegetables, tubers and fruits in net houses, not to leave empty land.

Up to this point, Minh Tam Cooperative has not recovered the torn nets, covered with new nets as directed. Because according to Ms. Tu: “If we cover the net, we have to spend about 900 million dong so the cooperative doesn’t have the money to do it”. Households also reported that they do not have the budget to stretch new nets and apply for changing land use purposes because they have invested a lot of money to plant perennial trees.

Households participating in the project voluntarily converting crops for the wrong purpose were invited to the office of the People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune to work in the afternoon of April 14.

Talking about this issue, Mr. Than Van Thuan, Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Viet Yen district, said that the main reason leading to Minh Tam Cooperative and households participating in the net house project, the ineffective production is due to The cooperative has not yet built a preliminary processing area, cold storage for agricultural products, so the cooperative cannot sign production contracts with households and businesses (DN) for consumption.

To overcome this, the locality will soon request the Provincial People’s Committee to approve the planning of the preliminary processing zone, so that the district will have grounds to support the construction of this area. This is the basis for Minh Tam Cooperative to be eligible to sign production contracts with households and purchasing enterprises. Regarding net houses whose frame has been removed and the purpose of use changed, Mr. Thuan affirmed that he will give statistics, make records and strictly deal with it, requiring net owners to restore the status quo and grow vegetables and crops according to project. “We are determined to restore the efficiency of the greenhouse and net houses as soon as possible,” said Thuan.

The investment in building high-tech agricultural production zone is the right policy. However, the net houses and plastic houses are ineffective, some of them have changed their use purpose for a long time due to lack of management. Hopefully, local rights, cooperatives and people participating in the project will soon join hands to overcome, avoid wasting investment capital.
