Small, beautiful roads, gently sloping, floating between the immense green of the roadside trees and the blue of the sky. But, that still isn’t enough. Coming to Buon Ma Thuot, do not forget to visit and experience these interesting addresses: Interesting Dak Lak Museum At first, we were quite indifferent when we saw that the design of the museum was not very convenient for visitors. A guest approached the door, turned around and lamented “nothing”. But, it was because the front door was closed, we entered from the back entrance. After buying tickets and having an narrator, the whole group was really impressed and fascinated by the interesting and useful information. Dak Lak Museum has 3 main exhibition spaces, providing a basic and complete introduction to Biodiversity, National Culture and History of the plateau land and people. Dak Lak Museum is designed according to the traditional longhouse architecture of the Ede ethnic group in the Central Highlands (photo of Dak Lak Museum).

In particular, outside the museum yard, there is a pair of camphor over a hundred years old: a shady tree with a giant stump of 3-4 new embraces, a dead tree, the root is kept as a souvenir. In addition, there are two ylang-ylang trees in front of the villa of Bao Dai Palace, several dozen years old, with large and wide canopy, fragrant flowers. In Buon Ma Thuot, there is also the World Coffee Museum, designed to simulate the impressive architecture of a long house, standing out against the blue sky, so it is an ideal place for you to take pictures to check-in. But, the artifacts displayed inside are not enough to attract visitors, if not too faint. Outside the Coffee World Museum, the architecture is very beautiful and the sky is blue, everyone who comes here wants to take pictures to check-in. Lak Lake, so absorbed in forgetting the way back A place that should not be missed is Lak Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake in the Central Highlands located at an altitude of 500m above sea level, connecting with Krong Ana River. Distance from city center. Buon Ma Thuot is about 60-70km, only after nearly 2 hours by car, you can experience and discover the unique beauty of this place.

Not only is it a walk to admire the lake, ride an elephant, go canoeing or kayak, … but it is important to bathe in the depth of the cultural, historical and life space of the M’ ethnic group. Nong, Ede. If you missed it, it would be a pity. According to Ms. Nguyen Nga, a tourist from Hanoi, you can choose to spend the night at Lak Tented Camp, a resort deep in the lake, quiet and separate from the surrounding world. Full of elephant riding around the lake, you should try the elephant dung coffee, only 60,000 VND/cup to feel its different taste. Cycling in the morning to explore village life and waterfall trekking. In the afternoon, you can see and learn about the unique and traditional black pottery craft in Vietnam – the profession is almost lost, only 1-2 people keep it in the village.

In the photo is a statue of an elephant ready to be baked, placed as a souvenir for guests (photo by Nguyen Nga) Unique handmade pottery with glossy black color, fired with wood and rice husks (photo by Nguyen Nga) At night, you will enjoy the dance of M’Nong girls around the campfire and drink it with can wine,… Special experiences that when you leave, you still wonder why you have a place. so enchanting. Many attractions waiting to be discovered On the way back to the city, you should visit Mother elephant rock – also known as Yangtao Elephant Rock – not far from 5km is Rock Elephant Father. The big mother elephant stone block, shaped like an elephant with a huge spine, lies quietly in the middle of the vast green. Although not very high, the rock slopes gently, easily slippery when it rains and the higher the wind, the stronger the wind, so it is also a challenge for those who are afraid of heights and not all visitors are brave enough to climb. But, when you have reached the top, the biggest reward is the scene that appears both majestic and poetic. Ignoring business related factors, Ko Tam tourist area well worth your time to visit. Just like a miniature Buon Ma Thuot, this 17-hectare eco-tourism area has everything from a version of a long house, a small museum with a statue of a tomb, a temple and a prayer tree,… Beautiful landscape design makes you spend a whole day to explore, take pictures to check-in with the lake, flower garden, long and deep bamboo range,… In the evening, there is also a musical performance with the gong display.

If customers choose to fly Hanoi – Buon Ma Thuot (Dak Lak), this city can be considered as a transit point when it is easy to go to Dak Nong or Gia Lai, Kon Tum from here. However, the combination of going to Dak Nong is considered the most reasonable, because if going to Gia Lai, there is another choice of direct flight from Hanoi to Pleiku. So, Pleiku and Kon Tum can be reserved for another trip. If you go all the way, you will be in the opposite direction, because Buon Ma Thuot is in the middle of the two ends, unless you have a lot of time or go in the style of “riding a horse to see the flowers”. Especially, you can combine both going to the plateau and going to the sea. From Buon Ma Thuot to Tuy Hoa (Phu Yen) is more than 190km, about 200km to Nha Trang, by road. Thus, we have another option is to fly from Hanoi to Buon Ma Thuot for about 3 days, take a car to Tuy Hoa or Nha Trang to swim for 2-3 more days.

Lak Lake is located on Lien Son town, next to the traffic route between Buon Ma Thuot and Da Lat, about 56 km south of Buon Ma Thuot city along Highway 27. The lake is about 5 square kilometers wide. The lake is surrounded by high mountains, so the lake’s water is always calm and there are large primeval forests with rich flora and fauna. Around the lake, there are also historical architectures such as the palace of Emperor Bao Dai, the long house of the M’Nong people. Many traditional long houses are preserved here, besides, many new modern style houses are also built to serve visitors. Tourists come here not only to visit Lak Lake but also enjoy the cultural features of the Central Highlands such as fire dance, seasonal dance, gong performance, silk silk, k’long put, rock flock, elephant riding or boating. walking alone on the lake or crossing the lake. Currently, there are only about a dozen elephants left on the shores of Lak Lake to serve tourists. The elephants here are all caught from the forest since childhood. Up to now, there is an elephant that is 30-40 years old. The youngest child is also 29-30 years old. In the past, many tourists came to Lak Lake to experience the lakeside elephant riding service, however, recently, with the call for animal protection, many people are not interested in elephant riding anymore. According to the elephant manager in Lak Lake, a male elephant can weigh from 4 to 8 tons. Female elephants are smaller. Male elephants have tusks, female elephants only have fangs, very small. Currently, in Lak Lake, the elephant Y Kham Sen has the longest tusks, but only one side. The name Y Kham Sen means “golden child, gambler”. Normally, elephants are fed grass, sugar cane, vegetables, stems and bananas. Each child can eat tons of vegetables and fruits every day. If serving tourists riding elephants, a trip for two people, about 15 minutes, will cost 300,000 VND. The sun and wind of the Central Highlands this season is also a memorable experience for everyone who comes here. However, recently, not many people are interested in riding elephants, because the campaign calls for animal protection. In addition to activities by Lak lake, visitors can visit Buon Bip waterfall, a wild stone stream next to romantic coffee and rice fields.

This intention was originally Canh Thai’s own. His family in Quanzhou, China, was originally a lawyer. However, from childhood to adulthood, he always dreamed of becoming a knight, traveling everywhere. When he shared the idea with his wife, he received support. Since childhood, Trinh Canh Thai dreamed of becoming a knight, riding a horse to travel. They spent more than 300,000 yuan (about more than 1 billion VND) for this journey of many experiences. Before the trip, Jingtai studied the map and set up a journey of 8,000 km, starting from Xinjiang, passing through Ningxia, Gansu, Shaanxi and other places in the southeast direction and planned to reach Quan Chau to finish the journey. For nearly a year, they were able to admire many famous scenic spots throughout China. Their most memorable memory on the road is when the couple walked through the Gobi desert. They lived in this area for 3 days, without a person, without food or water. “Before the trip, many people thought my idea was crazy. However, since I was a child, I have loved swordplay novels, dreaming of riding a horse, wearing a sword, traveling around the world. This person further shared that during his time working in Tibet, he often interacted with horses. This makes him even more yearning for a life of “riding a horse against the wind”, freedom and freedom. After discussing and receiving support from his wife, they went to Y Le and spent 50,000 yuan to buy two horses, starting the journey. “I also considered starting points, including Tibet and Gansu. In the end, I felt that the horses born in the Yle valley are suitable for conquering the long distance.” Canh Thai says riding a horse is not a cheap way to travel. “In the summer, two horses would normally need 75 liters of water, but we couldn’t carry enough. Due to lack of water, at times, the couple felt helpless in the desert.” Fortunately, on the fourth day, they came across a small lake. Although it was very dirty and full of bugs, they had no choice but to drink the water in the lake. “In those days, our only support was strong will,” recalls Canh Thai. Besides, this man revealed that riding a horse is not an economical way to travel. They spent a lot of money on horses. Along the way, in addition to food, the couple also had to change their nails and have to examine them. Despite many challenges, Trinh Canh Thai and his wife still managed to finish their journey by the end of this year. This man said that in the future, when his daughter is a few years older, he will continue to roam on horseback again.

Sparkes-Hall in 1851 because she wanted a pair of boots without lace.

Wild mustangs in the US are of Spanish origin. According to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH), mustangs are not wild horses because they come from a domesticated population, and therefore, wild mustangs are considered wild. They can be found freely throughout the western United States but are kept and ridden by humans like other horses. According to Horse Canada, a government-run horse website, the Mustang has a muscular body and hard hooves, which makes them suitable for scouting and horseback riding. Equus horses, evolved in North America about 4 million years ago, before spreading to the rest of the world. The last real American wild horses died about 10,000 years ago, possibly due to climate change and human interactions. Characteristics of Mustang Mustangs, like other horses, are usually measured by hand, typically 14 to 15 arm span tall. This is equivalent to 56 inches to 60 inches (140 to 150 cm). They weigh about 360 kg. Mustangs can be available in a variety of colors. Usually, they are reddish brown, or sorrel, chestnut in color. They can also have multiple patches, spots, and stripes. Mustang lives in the grasslands of the western United States and mainly feeds on grasses and palms. The US Land Administration oversees “wild” horse and burro populations, and allows them to run freely on 10.9 million hectares of public land. The range is divided into 10 herd management zones: Colorado, Nevada, Arizona, California, Idaho, Montana-Dakotas, New Mexico, Oregon-Washington, Utah and Wyoming. According to Smithsonian Magazine, wild horses also live on the Atlantic coast and on islands such as the Sable Islands, Shackleford and Assateague. Mustangs live in herds. According to the Humane Society, a herd consists of a stallion and about eight females and calves, although separate herds have been known to mix when they are in danger. Each herd is led by a mare or mare and a stallion over 6 years old. In dangerous situations, the dominant mare will lead the herd to a safe place, the stallion staying to fight. Like other mammals, the mare is 11 months pregnant and usually born in April, May or early June. This gives foals time to grow before the cold months of the year. Horses typically live for 25 to 30 years in captivity, although some live up to the age of 40. Horses that live in the wild, like wild populations in public lands in the western United States, generally have a shorter lifespan, although they have been reported to live up to 36 years. There are many types of mustangs? Horses originally introduced by the Spanish into North America bred with other domestic horses for many years and, therefore, Mustangs are often a mix of several different breeds. These breeds include draft horses and purebred horses. Mustangs bred between different populations and some more closely resembled their Hispanic ancestors than others. For example, Oregon Kiger mustangs live in small, isolated herds and their bloodline is largely derived from early Spanish horses. Mustangs are known for their wild nature, but they can be domesticated and rode like other horses. However, this process will take longer if they are obtained directly from the wild – rather than in captivity – and they are not used to being handled by villagers. The number of mustangs declined dramatically in the 20th century due to horses being killed and captured for a variety of reasons, including for human and dog food. America in 1900; According to AMNH, by 1971, the number of mustangs had decreased to 17,300. The Mustang was later secured on public lands, along with burros. The US Congress declared the mustang “a living symbol of the historic spirit and pioneer of the West.” This Act also allows them to be regulated and controlled. The US Land Administration controls mustang and burro counts on public lands. The process is controversial and several wildlife protection groups. Without human intervention, mustang populations can rapidly increase because not many predators, such as wolves, can naturally control them, according to AMNH.

Traditional Mongolian tent in Orkhon National Park. Photo: Shutterstock The capital Ulan Bator is isolated, located 1,350 meters (4,430 ft) above sea level, slightly eastward in central Mongolia and on the banks of the Tuul River, a tributary of the Selenge River. a valley at the foot of the Bogd Khan mountain. Despite having a large land bank, 45% of Mongolia’s population live in the capital Ulan Bator. Contrary to the belief of many people, that Mongolia has only green deserts and steppes, with people riding horses, Ulan Bator is a very modern city, high-rise buildings, busy cars. This is also the place in the TOP of the coldest capitals in the world, when winter can be cold to – 40 degrees C. This country has a lot of interesting and mysterious things that not everyone knows. The economy is “precarious” Mongolia is a country with many natural resources and is considered the “new navel” of the earth, under the vast deserts are iron mines, copper and uranium mines. In 2011, when the price of copper and iron ore soared, Mongolia’s economic growth was the fastest in the world with an increase of 17.29%, but after only a few years, the country’s economy was “slipping”. Mongolia’s GDP growth rate in 2014 was 7.89%; in 2015 it was 2.38%; in 2016 down to 1.17%; in 2018 it was 6.95%. Mongolia’s public debt stands at $ 30 billion, more than twice the national GDP. Mongolia’s per capita income in terms of purchasing power parity in 2020 is $ 12,970. However, the standard of living of people in this country is still quite disparity, with up to 36% of people living below the poverty line. These poor villagers earn only about $ 2 a day. Meanwhile, there are super rich giants with luxurious and fully equipped lives. One can find skyscrapers, super cars, bars or very modern buildings in Mongolia. Heaven “no rubbish” In the 21st century, it is difficult to find a place where there is no trash, but many people have entered a “paradise” but look tired and do not see a piece of trash – Mong steppe Neck. Just going out of the city, you can see endless, endless green carpets like a giant carpet in the middle of the earth, being let go of free birds, roaming on horseback. live life like the nomads here. The Mongols have a very high sense of environmental protection. They never litter the environment. After each move, trash is collected and brought to the city, moved to the correct collection point. This habit is gradually learned by tourists. It seems, no one has the heart to let the steppe get eyesighted by trash. Many “strange” customs Use less water to bathe: The Mongols have a strange notion that using water to bathe will touch the artery and the gods. For them, someone who smells heavy on body, that person brings more luck. Although at the present time, this concept is no longer as widespread as it used to be, if you accidentally meet someone from Mongolia and find them “smelly” do not be surprised. “White Month Tet”: Mongolia’s traditional New Year is also known as the Tsagaan Sar New Year, coinciding with the Vietnamese New Year. However, due to the cultural intersection between China and Russia, Mongolia’s Lunar New Year is not completely similar to the customs and habits of most other Asian countries. The Mongols see white as a symbol of purity, bringing good luck and good luck. In the first days of the new year, they often wear white or give each other white items. They have the custom of kneeling while drinking wine and drinking tea on New Year’s Eve, the dishes are washed with horse milk. Festival on frozen lakes: Once a year, Mongolians from all over the world flock to the border with Russia, where Khövsgöl is the deepest steppe. In the cold below -40 degrees Celsius and frozen lake surface, they gather to have fun, celebrate the austerity winter, preparing to welcome the bright days. On the frozen lake Khövsgöl up to hundreds of meters deep, people organize all kinds of entertainment from traditional to modern. The more beautiful a woman is, the easier it is to “ditch”: Mongolia is a place where women have better careers than men. Women are more educated than men in terms of education, they are less likely to encounter unemployment. Raising cattle was inherently only for men. In any bar, pub or club, female customers always account for the majority. But also because they are too superior in terms of social status compared to men, Mongolian women with modern lifestyles decide to stay in the city to find work after graduation, so it is extremely hard to found a half of my life. Mongolian Women. Photo: Ayan Travel This situation is common in universities as well as in workplaces. This also leads to the fact that men in Mongolia also have more choices: more than 40% of men over the age of 15 are married, compared with 32% for women. . Monuments everywhere In the capital Ulan Bator, the Genghis Khan statue is everywhere, from solemn locations to idyllic places, in tents and especially present in the living decorations of many nomads. . The country is still poor, but Mongolia dares to spend over 4 million USD to invest in the monumental area combined with the monumental museum. The statue of Genghis Khan about 40m high, with a majestic face, powerful riding on a majestic horse, facing the East, where he was born. That’s enough to see how they idolized Genghis Khan and former kings of the empire. Navy is only in “lake” Mongolia has no sea, but people cannot believe that the Mongolian government still pays money to buy ships and often uses one of them to carry oil through Lake Khövsgöl to Russia. Not only ships, but Mongolia also has a naval force of “7 people”. The job of the Mongolian navy soldiers is very simple, it is to be a tour guide. It was strange that among them there was only one swimmer – the Batbayan sailor. He also plays a rescue role when tourists are in distress. Although the accident and the number of deaths were a lot, he himself saved 2 people./.

The handsome brother used a sports camera to record that he was in between filming and took 2 daysCycling from Quanzhou to XiamenTravel alone.

The cycling route from Quanzhou to Xiamen,About 90 kilometers, it takes 9 hours to ride,It takes 1 to 2 days.

Wu Lei set off from Quanzhou after finishing work in the afternoon of the first day, and completed the entire ride in the evening of the second day.

The two-day itinerary was cut into two vlogs by my brother, which were posted on @吴磊LEO’s Weibo on 3.24 and 4.11 respectively. The two videos have received more than one million likes.

The owner strongly recommends the bee bee who likes riding and likes Wu Lei’s brother to watch the original film~

In addition to cycling along the way, Wu Lei also ate beef hot pot, photographed the moment before the plane landed, saw the beautiful streets of Xiamen and the sunset, and met interesting passers-by.

The most interesting thing is the little brother who helped him take pictures on the road. This little brother didn’t recognize Wu Lei, but he became very interested in his road bike. The younger brother has been boasting that this little brother is very good.

There is also a conversation between Wu Lei’s brother and his fishing friends. Many small clips make people can’t help but smile.

In the vlog, Wu Lei also taught you a lot of riding tips, including pre-trip preparation, physical strength replenishment, driving safety, sun protection, sunglasses, riding shooting, etc., which are really useful.

People are so handsome and so good at playing, they are really very popular~I can see that the owners want to ride the same route very much!

But when we watched this route, we found that we missed the secret realm of a treasure in the whole journey.

It is not appropriate to say that I missed it, because Wu Lei actually lived near here on the first nightIt’s only one street away from the most famous local scenery, but time is limited and I can’t feel its charm.

This is Jinjiang, Quanzhou, FujianAnhai~

From a Mafengwo user @老大 casually stroll around

Anhai Town was called “Wanhai”, “Quan’an”, “Anping”, “Shijing”, and “Hongjiang” in ancient times. It is a town under the jurisdiction of Jinjiang City, Quanzhou City, Fujian Province.

This little-known town has actually been established for more than 800 years.

From Mafengwo user @戴燕平

In ancient times, Anhai was the Nangang of the ancient port of Quanzhou. It was formerly named “Wanhai” because of the Jiuqu Bay in its territory.

During the Kaibao reign of the Northern Song Dynasty, An Lianji, a descendant of An Jinzang, a famous Tang Dynasty minister, migrated to Wanhai. The “wan” was changed to “An”, and it was originally named “Anhai” here.

From Mafengwo user@Quanzhou Prefecture

Anhai has developed into a major commercial town and material distribution center in southern Fujian because of its geographical advantages on land and water.

During the Qing Dynasty, Anhai was divided into “Thirty-six Lanes, Nine Wais, Eighteen Pos, Twenty-four Borders”, and these ancient names are still retained today.

From a Mafengwo user @老大 casually stroll around

Nowadays, this small town is regarded as a treasure by the whole country, especially the southern visitors to ancient times.

From Mafengwo user@Is it necessary?

However, the owner found that there are very few travel strategies for this small city on the Internet.

But if you want to ride from Quanzhou to Xiamen like Wu Lei’s brother, or if you want to find some truly niche destinations in the near future, then this article must be collected~

Anhai Longshan Temple

Anhai Longshan Temple is also Jinjiang Longshan Temple. Because Anhai was called Quan’an in ancient times, it was also called Quan’an Longshan Temple. Anhai Longshan Temple was built in the Sui Dynasty, and most of the existing buildings are the remains of the late Qing Dynasty.

From Mafengwo user @林下清风

In the Qing Dynasty, a large number of immigrants from Quanzhou Prefecture brought Longshan Temple to Taiwan, leaving behind a series of famous temples such as Changhua Lukang Longshan Temple and Taipei Wanhua Longshan Temple.

Therefore, Anhai Longshan Temple is considered to be the ancestor of Longshan Temple on both sides of the strait, and its status is lofty.

From Mafengwo user@Quanzhou Prefecture

Now Anhai Longshan Temple has been listed as a cultural relic protection unit in Fujian Province, and the building itself is very interesting. In the temple there is a calligraphy by Master Hongyi Li Shuping.

What is even more amazing is the wood carving Thousand-Hand Guanyin of the Ming Dynasty in the temple. The artistic level is amazing.

Anping Bridge

Across the street from the hotel where Wu Lei spent the night is Anping Bridge, where Jinjiang and the whole of Fujian have a lofty status.

This ancient bridge is among the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units, which shows the importance of its historical significance.

Before this bridge was built, people in the two towns could only go back and forth by boat, which was extremely dangerous.

In the eighth year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty (1138), a monk from Anhai presided over the construction of the bridge on both sides of the strait.

Quoted from Baidu Encyclopedia

It was rebuilt many times in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The middle end of the bridge is the Water Heart Pavilion, and the famous couplets are engraved on the gate pillars of the pavilion, “There is Buddha in the world, and there is no bridge in the world as long as this bridge”.

While waiting for the Vostok-1 to be launched, the famous saying “Поехали!” Gagarin’s (“Let’s go!”) Shows his daring personality. This personality has also become a brief motto in the human travels later on.

Over the years, the space exploration community has made great strides, including the first crewed flight flight, the first female astronaut’s space walk, and a pairing experiment. to examine the impact of the environment in space on humans. Of the twin astronauts Scott and Mark Kelly, Mark will be on Earth and Scott will fly into space.

April 12 was officially recognized as the United Nations’ International Astronaut Day. Many space lovers take part in a global space party known as “Yuri’s Night” to mark a big occasion.

“Endless exploration is deeply entrenched in each of us, and space travel is a practical way to realize this extraordinary cosmic mission,” said Clément Fortin, Professor of Practice at the Center. Space under the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech) in Moscow, Russia, writes in an email.

According to him, the achievement of Yuri Gagarin opens up other great possibilities, though it is difficult to achieve in particular.

Yuri Gagarin and the first voyage into space

The first crewed trip was a milestone for all of humanity, but the day astronaut Yuri Gagarin first flew into space was a special resonance for Russians, who saw Gagarin as a taste. Valuable national hero. His name is given to many monuments, buildings and locations across the country.

“In Russia there are a lot of events being held on this day. We will participate in events that explain how space technology works and how the future of space exploration,” said Anton Ivanov. , Director of Skoltech’s Space Center, replied in an email.

The Vostok-1 is launching at the Baikonur Cosmodrome station, Kazakhstan.

Human space travel is an effort that has been successful in the past 60 years, but also leaves a lot of regret for many young people. Teenagers under the age of 20 have never experienced an undiscovered space, when there are no humans in orbit, as the space station (ISS) has been occupied since day 2. 11/2000.

Earlier, Russia’s Mir space station flew into Earth orbit from 1986-2001, pioneering multi-day crew trips. Russian astronauts Mir still holds the record for the 3rd longest in the history of mankind’s longest journeys.

Before the Gagarin flight 60 years ago, no one had set foot in space. The Soviet space program put many animals into space, such as the famous Laika, the first animal to fly around the Earth. Even so, Gagarin still faces a completely new challenge with great principles that will change the entire history of space travel, regardless of the mission.

“In the early 1960s, the missile technology was still incomplete, despite many tests, the missile was blown up,” Mr. Ivanov said.

According to him, before Gagarin’s ship was launched, there were several failed launches. Gagarin sat on the train as if riding a bomb. Since the astronauts knew the statistics well, they had the courage to board the Vostok-1 and carry out their mission.

Fortunately, Gagarin and his crew’s courage paid off. After hours inside the Vostok-1 on the launch pad, Gagarin was finally launched into the air at the Baikonur Cosmodrome launch station, Kazakhstan, at 6:07 Coordinated International (UTC).

Gagarin entered orbit a few minutes later, maintaining a calm and positive attitude throughout the 108-minute flight.

Lessons from the first flight

The cockpit of the Vostok-1 has a spherical shape made mainly of aluminum alloy and covered with abrasive material. Unlike today’s capsule cocktails, the ship carrying the Gagarin was not designed to reach the ground safely.

The small metal ball was equipped with only one escape option that Gagarin had to manipulate in order to be dropped from a great distance from the ground, so that he could parachute into a safe place while the Vostok-1 landed separately. .

After completing a round-trip around the Earth, the Vostok-1 is sent back into space. At that time, Gagarin successfully escaped an open door and fell into the countryside in Kazakhstan.

The ship carrying Gagarin was not designed to land safely, so he had to parachute to escape the ship while it landed somewhere else.

Even though the mission was a success, this was still a hair-raising risk on the back of the neck. In an email, Ms. Anastasia Ilina, founder of the Russian space diffusion community Space Flight and project coordinator of the Skoltech Space Center, described the Vostok-1 as “flight into space, one the flight has no guarantees “.

“During Yuri Gagarin’s flight, we had difficulty closing the spacecraft lid, and after launching, the ship moved in orbit faster than planned,” she said.

When she returned, she said, the push-and-brake system produced unsafe braking impulses, making the ship twisted and landed with difficulty.

“But even though there were technical difficulties, we all got over it,” added Ms. Ilina.

According to her, it was important that the first flight taught the crew (astronauts, guides, engineers) a lesson on how to coordinate work and manage space equipment.

In fact, Yuri Gagarin proved that one can step inside a metal sphere and change the trajectory of human discovery forever. Within a decade of his first flight, many astronauts in the Apollo program had landed on the Moon.

This is an American achievement born of the Cold War due to the successes of the Soviet Union that sparked the space race.

While possibly strong interstate geopolitical tensions over space travel still exist, mankind’s travels have evolved into a collaborative endeavor.

Astronauts from 18 different countries and new international collaborations such as the Artemis program led by NASA aim to bring people back to the Moon.

The advent of commercial crews also reshaped human spacecraft, heralding a new era of space travel that is imminent in the near future.

Many elephant camps in Thailand were once the top destination for international tourists, but are now forced to close or scale down due to the March 2020 ban. return to their original habitat.

An estimated 3,800 house elephants have been moved out of the tourist spots scattered in Surin province (southeastern Thailand) to the coastal towns of Pattaya or Phuket and the mountains around Chiang Mai.

Several individuals were brought back to Huay Pakkot, a village 180 km southeast of Chiang Mai city where the Karen ethnic minorities have traditionally raised elephants for generations.

“After two days, the elephants are gradually adapting to new habitats,” said Theerapat Trungprakan, president of the Thai Elephant Association.

Huay Pakkot and several surrounding villages used to be the largest concentration of elephants in Northern Thailand. Here, elephants are used in the logging industry. After Thailand’s ban on logging in 1989, elephants and mahout left and joined the tourism industry that grew “like mushrooms after rain”.

“The elephants have been returned home, where they were born, but that place is not the same place anymore,” Mr. Theerapat said.

The once fertile forests, where elephants could roam around and find plentiful food, have “disappeared”, replaced by bare slopes planted with corn for fodder. . The amount of herbicides, pesticides and chemical fertilizers used are now in the soil and will most likely cause the elephant’s death.

“Elephants now have to share their living space with modern agriculture,” said Satit Trachookwamdee, a man who used to raise five elephants. “The natural forests now meet only 10% of the elephant herd’s daily diet. The rest must be shipped from remote towns, which are very expensive.”

An elephant can consume up to 300kg of fodder per day, most of the house elephants are now chained to prevent them from destroying crops, and to prevent unknown elephants from colliding with each other.

“This is like gathering aggressive kids in a nursery,” said Theerapat.

If you lose your elephant, the consequences are very unpredictable. An 8-year-old female elephant named Nana suffered chemical burns on her tongue and palate after eating food containing herbicides.

In order to promptly cure dangerous cases, Chiang Mai University collaborated with the Thai Elephant Association and the government to create a mobile multi-purpose clinic: a truck that can be converted in minutes into a field clinic, or used to transport severe cases to one of Thailand’s four elephant hospitals.

However, getting the health force to reach remote areas may still take days. This is considered one of the limitations of elephant farming in rural areas instead of in tourist sites where care services are available.

In these villages, the majority of people often live in poverty, lacking the necessary resources to sustain these “giant” animals.

“I prefer to live here. It’s much more free here,” said Pongkavi Kwansaodaeng as he stroked Dumbo, one of his four elephants. “The elephants are happier here too. You can see it through their eyes and expressions. Here they have more time to mingle with nature.”

However, Pongkavi also admits that this paradise life may not last long. Before the pandemic broke out, Pongkavi worked in a tourist area and could earn 24,000 Baht (more than 17 million VND) in rent for an elephant a month.

Most of the money he saves is used to buy elephant food. But it is likely that this amount will be depleted in less than a year, although there are many opinions that Thailand will reopen international visitors in October to help revive the country’s tourism industry.

Theerapat, owner of Patara elephant farm near Chiang Mai city, said it currently receives only about 10 visitors a week, compared with 45 times per day before the pandemic. Despite being prized for how to raise and breed elephants, his farm is currently struggling to keep the remaining 40 elephants, compared with 81 pre-pandemic herds.

This elephant rancher had to use up his savings, borrow money, sell property and vehicles to continue his business. “During my heyday, I used to drive a modern sports car. Right now, I can only afford a 40-year old Range Rover,” Theerapat said.

Elephant tourism previously brought Thailand nearly 6 billion Baht per year, although difficulties still surround, but Mr. Theerapat believes that this is also an opportunity for elephant tourism to create some new reforms.

“We should not think of elephant tourism as a business, but see this as a way to help preserve and conserve this species. Therefore, it is necessary to establish an appropriate standard for the industry. This “, Mr. Theerapat stressed.

In its early days, elephant tourism was often “Disneylanded” with elephants kicking soccer balls, playing basketball, and performing circus-like games to attract tourists. Many farms also train elephants to learn to draw or play musical instruments. Several farms have been accused of exploiting elephant labor.

In response to criticism and calls for boycotts from animalists at home and abroad, some farm owners prevented visitors from riding elephants, restricting visitors from participating in activities such as elephant feeding. and shower.

But according to Mr. Theerapat, this is a misconception. Elephant riding is seen as daily exercise for this species, if this activity is not maintained, it is easy to cause overweight for elephants, or cause them to digestive problems and make them worse. Females become difficult to give birth, even die during childbirth.

Theerapat said that the elephant tourism industry is a solution to help prevent the extinction of the elephant population in Thailand, which owns the second largest number of elephants in Asia after Myanmar.

Releasing large numbers of elephants to no longer invested or relatively sensitive natural areas in Thailand would be difficult. Although they are able to return to the place where they were born, when falling into unemployment and lack of caregivers, house elephants find it difficult to survive on their own.

“Before, there were some people who wanted to quit elephant tourism. Now, maybe they have achieved their wish. But then what?”, Shrugged Mr. Theerapat. “Who will be responsible for the future of these elephants?”
