Some Turkish archaeologists once said that they had found evidence of human activities in the Buddha’s place around 6000 BC. Once the news was released, it immediately caused a sensation in the global archaeological community. Think about it, what era is 6000 BC? “Of course it was the Neolithic Age.” During this period, humans living in Europe were still relying on jungle hunting, and their skin was dark brown. If cultural relics can be found in Ephesus, it means that this area was already the most civilized area in Europe at that time.

The current mainstream evidence shows that the ancient city of Ephesus was built around the 10th century BC, and in its early days was a trading city managed by ancient Greeks. It was later taken over by the ancient Romans, and its status was elevated to the second largest city in Europe after the imperial city of the Roman Empire. By the 1st century AD, this pivotal city had a population of over 250,000. Interestingly, Ephesus has the world’s earliest urbanization facility-public toilets. But the public toilets at the time were not only for people’s physiological needs, but also very important for social occasions! Although the toilets were all built with big stones, they were also an important social place for the nobles and merchants to discuss matters at that time. It is said that in winter, before the rich go to the toilet, they will spend money to let the poor or their entourage sit on the table to warm the countertop before using it by themselves. In addition, there is also a very old commercial pedestrian street-Arcadia Street, as well as the ancient Roman theater that can accommodate 25,000 people at the same time! After more than a thousand years, this ancient city with a heavy history of civilization went through several ups and downs, and finally began to decline gradually from the 15th century. In any case, the past civilization and glory cannot be reproduced, but the existing relics are enough to prove the history of 2000 years ago. How brilliant is Ephesus. Since the train transportation from Selcuk to Izmir is very convenient, we also want to experience the local train journey, so we returned the previously rented car in Selcuk and took only one hour by train. We arrived in downtown Izmir. Although this is the third largest city in Turkey, it is only our transit station. You don’t want to stay in Izmir for too long, so you just wandered along the Aegean coast. Here you can clearly feel the difference between the Aegean Sea and the Mediterranean Sea: most of the water in the Mediterranean Sea is cyan, while the Aegean Sea is blue. I asked a local who was standing by my side watching the sea “Is the Aegean beautiful?” He said that he had watched it for many years, and he didn’t think it was particularly beautiful. If the perfect score is 100, it can only be given to 60 or 70. But I think the Aegean Sea in Izmir is particularly beautiful. After flying back to Istanbul from Izmir, we took advantage of the last afternoon free time to visit the most famous local Bazaar (Kapali Carsi). Almost all Chinese tourists who have been to Istanbul have visited here. It is said that this is one of the largest and oldest trading markets in the world. It has at least 22 entrances, 26 exits, 58 indoor streets, and more than 4,000 shops. Shops. The Grand Bazaar was originally built in 1455 (completed in 1461) by the seventh-generation Sultan of Ottoman Turkey, Sultan Mohammed II. It is known for its Middle Eastern style jewelry, local lamps, Turkish ceramics, Indian spices, and Persian carpets. Yu Shi. When savvy buyers and tourists visit the Grand Bazaar, they will slam their faces when they see the products they like, otherwise the person who is “slaughtered” must be yourself. Even in the Grand Bazaar, each store owner’s price is different for the same product. If you plan to buy some special souvenirs, it’s best to stroll around the more remote Bazaar streets. In order not to buy inferior handicrafts, we even spent an hour and a half in front of a pottery workshop, watching the craftsmen production on spot. In the end, I got a beautiful ceramic bottle. In addition to hand made on the bottom of the bottle, there was also the word “lead”. Someone was staring at it. The craftsman’s craftsmanship is indeed very high, but the price is three times that of ordinary bottles. The city of Istanbul at night is still so charming, taxis passing by noisy neighborhoods, churches and mosques illuminated by spotlights are even more sacred, and the smell of barbecue and roasted chestnuts from time to time outside the car windows makes people move their index fingers. The dessert stalls on the roadside are filled with all kinds of exquisite chocolates. As long as you look at it, you can’t help feeling the silky and fragrant taste. It’s just like Turkey itself, with the mysterious in it. The temptation to resist

“Ronald Reagan” nuclear-powered aircraft carrier (US Navy data map)
According to information released by the US military, in addition to the “Reagan”, the aircraft carrier strike group that entered the South China Sea this time also included the “Ticonderoga”-class guided missile cruiser “Shilo” (CG 67) and “Arleigh Burke”. Class destroyer “Halsey” (DDG 97). Among them, the “Hilo” cruiser visited Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province in May 2013. This is one of the important bases of our army’s South China Sea Fleet.
US military sources said that after the “Reagan” aircraft carrier strike group entered the South China Sea, it was performing various maritime training tasks, including air force flight training, maritime strike training, and coordinated tactical training of surface units and aviation units.
It is reported that the “Reagan” aircraft carrier strike group will hold a routine “spring cruise” as planned. Affected by the new crown epidemic, the “Spring Cruise” of the “Reagan” in 2020 lasted for 5 months, breaking the record for the mission time of the aircraft carrier stationed in Japan since 1999. Last year, the “Reagan” entered the South China Sea many times, and this year, the “Reagan” has just completed a few months of small-scale renovation.
The US military also mentioned in the news that the US military previously dispatched the USS Wilbur (DDG 54) destroyer to coordinate with the Australian Navy ship USS Ballarat. The two navies were also on June 6-11. South China Sea operations.

Chinese Ministry of National Defense spokesperson Tan Kefei made a statement on May 20 regarding the illegal intrusion of the USS Wilbur into our territorial waters of Xisha, stating that the ship illegally broke into China’s territorial waters of Xisha without the approval of the Chinese government. The Chinese People’s Liberation Army organizes naval and air forces in relevant theaters to track and monitor US ships and warn them to leave. The intrusion of a US warship into our territorial waters in Xisha was a serious provocative action of very bad nature. We strongly oppose and strongly condemn it.

Fresh urban scenery,

Even the air is filled with the refreshing smell of sea salt soda.

The magic is that here is The coastal city closest to Korea in the country.

The most fascinating thing about the corner of good luck is its natural “healing temperament”.

“Treading the waves and chasing the sand” is as common as walking downstairs to digest food for people who grew up on the beach.

The Cape of Good Luck, which is surrounded by the sea on three sides, never lacks high-quality natural bathing beaches, and the Fragrant Sea with the “Oriental Maldives” is one of them.

It has 16 kilometers of coastline and 2.5 kilometers of diamond sand beaches. The sea area is clean and soft with sand.

Glowing golden under the light, comes with Xin Haicheng animation filter, the sea breeze will always gently brush your face,

With the oil painting-like architecture, wherever you walk, you will feel that you are walking in a certain summer festival.

Chengshantou is the easternmost point of the Chinese mainland extending to the ocean, and is the first place to see the sunrise over the sea. Many people travel early to watch the sunrise, waiting for the first ray of sunshine at the end of the sky. The sunrise is accompanied by the healing sound of waves, not the sound of shutters. After watching the sunrise, strolling on the coastal plank road, every step is accompanied by the blue ocean scenery, every frame of the picture in my eyes is so moving and makes people linger.

The seaweed houses in the Jinshiwan Art Park are like walking out of a fairy tale book, which can be loved and dreamy. The seagrass house is a typical representative of the ancient dwellings in Jiaodong. With seagrass as the top, the fluffy grass texture looks like a blanket over the house from a distance, which harmonizes the rigidity of the stone building. It is said that the seaweed house is famous for being warm in winter and cool in summer. It combines beauty and comfort. It makes people want to get close. It seems to have strayed into Hayao Miyazaki’s animation world. Every frame of the picture is not as beautiful as the world. Things.

The delicacies here are all unique, impressive, delicious in the small town, remember to bring an extra stomach when you come here!

Fresh mackerel meat is chopped and stuffed with pork belly, and leeks are made into dumplings.

The skin is thin and there are many fillings, which are delicious and juicy. The flavor is better when dipped in vinegar and garlic.

It is full of “the taste of the sea” after a bite, and it is extremely fragrant, which is simply the “top class” of the dumpling class.

Crayfish is the best time to eat “crayfish” from June to August every year. The flesh is plump and full of meat. I don’t want to stop eating crayfish in summer. Boiled, mashed garlic, thirteen spices, spicy…No matter which flavor, I just want to say “Let go of that shrimp and let me come”!

The sea cucumber is cooked with green onions and has a delicate taste. This dish is not only a very common local dish, but also an excellent tonic. It has the characteristics of high protein and low fat, nourishes the yin and nourishes the kidney, and enhances the body’s immunity. There are many ways to use sea cucumbers to meet the different needs of tourists.

Braised prawns are tender and delicious, and are a common local dish. Put oil in the wok, then put the prawns, fry them until they are five years old and remove them. Leave the oil in the wok, add green onion and ginger to fry it for a fragrant flavor, add sugar, monosodium glutamate and other seasonings, roast for 5 minutes and pour the original juice on the prawns. Serve.

Fish pancakes, boiled fish at the bottom of the pan, pancakes on the side of the pan, golden cornmeal exudes a clear fragrance, soft and sweet, when the pan is opened, a fishy fragrance mixed with the fragrance of corn pancakes comes out, and the light smell makes people feel Can’t help but want to eat it quickly.

I should go to the beach in summer,

Stepping barefoot on the soft sand,

Follow the sunset with slippers,

This summer, you might as well come to this small town to escape the heat.

Good luck corner will not let you down!

Coral reefs in the sea area of ​​Phan Rang-Thap Cham city. (Photo: Nguyen Thanh/VNA) Ninh Thuan waters have high biodiversity with hundreds of marine species of economic and conservation value. For sustainable development, the preservation of biodiversity and rational exploitation of resources from the sea has been identified by Ninh Thuan province as one of the priority tasks in the socio-economic development strategy. Rich in biodiversity potential Ninh Thuan has a coastline of more than 105km and a territorial sea of ​​over 18,000km2. According to the latest studies on biodiversity by the provincial Department of Natural Resources and Environment, in the waters of Ninh Thuan, coral reefs and the diversity of coral reef organisms are one of the most important components of the environment. Biodiversity most prominent. Scientists have recorded 6 coral reefs with an average coverage of about 42.6%. The coral reef has been identified with over 334 species belonging to 15 families, 59 varieties of reef-forming corals, of which 46 species have been newly recorded and added to the list of coral species in Vietnam. Coral reefs are home to many species of creatures, including coral reef fish with 147 species belonging to 81 genera, 32 families. Seagrass beds were also identified with 5 species distributed on the coastal bottom with an area of ​​about 341ha. Biodiversity of Ninh Thuan sea area is also shown in the record of 538 fish species, including 146 pelagic fish species, 392 benthic fish species, of which 68 fish species have high economic value. In addition, marine species include 45 species of mollusks, 24 species of crustaceans, 13 species of echinoderms, and 22 species of polychaetes. Notably, the waters of Nui Chua National Park – Ninh Thuan are currently one of the few rare areas on the mainland in Vietnam with a population of sea turtles spawning every year, including: green turtles, tortoiseshell turtles. Regeneration of aquatic resources With the potential of valuable ecosystems and biodiversity, the conservation of marine biodiversity has always been of special interest to Ninh Thuan province. Over the past time, functional branches of the province have cooperated with research institutes, universities, domestic and foreign organizations to implement many topics, projects and research programs on biodiversity. such as: upgrade database – GIS about Coral reef and coastal ecosystems; develop a program for periodic monitoring of coral reefs in Ninh Thuan; survey typical marine ecosystems in Ninh Hai and Thuan Nam districts; restore mangrove ecosystems in Nui Chua and Dam Nai sea areas to protect and create a development environment for marine species. In particular, Ninh Thuan province established a marine protected area in Nui Chua National Park with a total area of ​​7,352 hectares. Nui Chua marine conservation area includes strict protection zones, ecological restoration areas and development zones with the function of protecting endemic and rare marine species in order to regenerate aquatic resources, protect and enhance the biodiversity of local marine protected areas. Mr. Tran Van Tiep, Deputy Director of Nui Chua National Park Management Board, said that over the years, the park has coordinated with domestic and foreign scientific research units and organizations to investigate and evaluate the potential, develop data on marine resources and environment within the conservation area to serve as a basis for implementing projects on environmental protection and restoration of marine ecosystems. Currently, the Park is implementing synchronously many plans and solutions to effectively and sustainably protect sea turtle populations and their habitats and other endangered and rare aquatic species. Specifically, the Park builds and maintains strict protection zones for sea turtles at spawning grounds in the area; building a turtle conservation station, establishing volunteer groups to participate in protecting sea turtles; at the same time, build a marine life rescue area to receive, rescue, treat, raise and train turtles in captivity, catch, and ensure sufficient conditions for turtles to live on their own before being released into the environment. nature. Simultaneously, the Nui Chua National Park Management Board has promoted propaganda measures to raise awareness and knowledge of the community about the importance and value of marine biological resources. From there, creating consensus, support and active participation of local people in protecting the marine ecosystem and environment, Mr. Tran Van Tiep added. In order to protect, regenerate and develop aquatic resources, Ninh Thuan province has been implementing many measures to manage, propagate and organize fishing in the right season, using the correct net size as prescribed. exploit the right route, do not use toxic chemicals, explosives, electric pulses to exploit. At the same time, the province deducts a part of the local budget and mobilizes businesses to release millions of tiger shrimp and fingerlings into the sea to regenerate and supplement seafood resources. Particularly in 2021, Ninh Thuan has organized to release 700,000 tiger shrimp seed into the sea to regenerate aquatic resources for local waters. Improve efficiency of management and conservation Through the assessment, the conservation of marine biodiversity has been better protected by all levels and sectors, but like coastal localities in the country, Ninh Thuan’s marine biodiversity is currently under pressure. face many challenges. It is the decline of biodiversity and fishery resources, aquaculture activities, and waste that make some marine areas at risk of pollution, climate change is causing pressures. significant contribution to the conservation and development of local marine biodiversity. Seaweed covers a large coral reef in Phuoc Dinh commune (Thuan Nam district). (Photo: Nguyen Thanh/VNA) According to Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ninh Thuan province, Tran Quoc Nam, identifying biodiversity resources in general, especially marine biodiversity resources, is of great significance to socio-economic development. Every year, Ninh Thuan integrates the task of environmental protection and biodiversity conservation into the province’s general socio-economic development plan. In order to improve the efficiency of biodiversity management and conservation, the Provincial People’s Committee assigned the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to coordinate with agencies and units to periodically observe, analyze and evaluate the current state of the environment. annually and once every 5 years to create initiative for the development of orientations on environmental protection policies in the whole province. Regarding biodiversity conservation in general, marine biodiversity conservation in particular, in the coming time, Ninh Thuan will continue to develop mechanisms and policies to attract resources from the central and local governments. implementation of investment programs and projects in order to improve the operational efficiency of marine protected areas. The province promotes scientific research, basic investigation of marine resources and environment; focus on biodiversity conservation, restoration of Ecosystem , especially coral reefs, seagrass beds, mangroves, coastal protection forests. At the same time, Ninh Thuan improves its capacity to respond to marine environmental incidents, actively propagates people living in coastal areas not to discharge domestic waste and plastic waste into the sea, actively collect clean the marine environment to prevent and minimize risk factors that may affect the development of marine organisms.

Recently, the beaches in Turkey appeared a patch of mucus (sea snot), which is increasingly spreading over the water. The widespread mucus layer on the Turkish coast causes serious damage to the country’s marine life and fishermen. (Source: Reuters) Sea snot is a green mud that is formed naturally when algae are over-nutriented due to hot weather and polluted water environment. The phenomenon was first detected in Turkey in 2007 and then in the Aegean Sea near Greece. The latest outbreak in the Sea of ​​Marmara near Istanbul is believed to be the largest in history. (Source: Reuters) Experts believe that the large amount of mucus that has appeared recently is due to a combination of environmental pollution and global warming, which accelerates the growth of algae that cause the slime. Meanwhile, President Erdogan said that the problem of untreated sewage being discharged directly into the sea was the cause of this outbreak of marine mucus. (Source: Reuters) When algae grow out of control in the spring, as we’ve seen this year, they block sunlight and cause declines, says biology professor at Istanbul University Muharrem Balci. oxygen for fish and marine life. (Source: Reuters) This mucous membrane covers the sea surface like a canvas. After a while, they sink, covering the seabed ecosystem and harming many species of creatures. When this process is over, they will appear to smell like a spoiled egg. This phenomenon can cause poisoning to sea clams and creatures such as crabs. (Source: Reuters) Professor Bayram Ozturk of the Turkish Marine Research Agency said that due to the overgrowth of the mucus layer, several species are endangered, including oysters, mussels and starfish. “This is a real disaster,” he said. (Source: Reuters) According to environmental engineer Cevahir Efe Akcelik, mucus could cover the sea during the summer if authorities do not take urgent measures. Studies show that mucus stays not only on the surface but also at depths between 25-30 meters. (Source: Reuters) Divers report that large numbers of fish and other species in the affected area are being wiped out by suffocation. This phenomenon has a significant impact on the lives of fishermen. Boats passing through the Sea of ​​Marmara had to navigate through the gray mud, while some fishermen were unable to fish because the mud clogs their engines and nets. (Source: Reuters) Mehmet Soyolcu (43 years old), a fourth generation fisherman in the Sea of ​​Marmara, said that in the past, it took two hours to pull a fishing net at sea, but now it takes ten hours, not counting the cost of fuel. materials and other operating costs. Every day, the operating costs are getting higher and higher, and the fish are less and less. (Source: Reuters) Some fishermen will raise prices to cover their losses, but that won’t help either because people fear the seawater might contaminate the fish in Marmara. At the fish market, more and more customers avoid buying fish and seafood since information about the mucus layer appeared. This makes the fishermen lose income from fishing, life becomes more difficult. (Source: Reuters) Istanbul, Turkey’s largest city with about 16 million inhabitants, and five other provinces, factories and industrial centers border the sea. As a result, this outbreak has had a severe impact on the ecosystem and fisheries in the region. (Source: Reuters) The Sea of ​​Marmara is a sea that stretches 281 km from the Northeast to the Southwest and is 80 km wide at its widest. This sea is connected to the Black Sea through the Bosphorus, also known as the Istanbul Strait in the Northeast. President Erdogan fears the problem will be very serious if the mucus spreads to the Black Sea. (Source: Reuters) The Turkish government has deployed a team of experts to examine the source of pollution in the sea. Workers are now trying to use nets to remove mucus, but their efforts have so far been largely ineffective. (Source: Reuters) Not only around the Sea of ​​Marmara, but the adjacent Black Sea and Aegean Sea regions were also affected by this mucus outbreak. (according to Reuters)

The sea boundary of Ha Long – Cam Pha has a length of 18.7km, started in September 2019 and passes through the wards of Hong Ha, Ha Tu, Ha Phong (Ha Long City) and Quang Hanh (Cam Pha City). The section through Cam Pha city with a length of nearly 10km has basically completed the construction of the foundation, asphalt carpeting, lighting, etc. The contractor is expanding the roadbed to adjust 6 lanes. The section through Ha Long City has been implemented since March 2020, but the road foundation has been basically completed. Bridge 2 over Lo Phong stream (Ha Phong ward, Ha Long city) with a length of 80m has completed the main items, the contractor is preparing to construct the bridge deck. In the mountain tunnel category, the contractor is conducting 4 consecutive excavations in both directions at the same time. Up to now, both tunnels have dug 135/470m, it is expected to open the tunnel until July 15. Tunnel door through the mountain side of Ha Long city. For 4km at sea, the contractor is actively constructing the roadbed, it is expected that in August 2021, the foundation will be completed to move to the finishing stage and asphalt pavement.

Considering that there was not much fresh water and food left on the Faust, the people on the shore had no hope of saving the poor sailors on this ship. The rescue team has changed the search and rescue objective to finding the wreckage of the ship – because given the current situation, there is a high probability that the ship has sunk. Three days after the disappearance, the situation suddenly changed. It was also what happened that day that made the mystery surrounding Faust even more difficult to explain. At midnight on July 25, Spanish maritime authorities received an urgent radio message that a British ship Duquesa had just returned from South America found a small fishing boat in the middle of the ocean. sea. Sailors on board were waving flashlights and begging for help. The sailors on board the Duquesa determined that at that time the ship that sent out the help signal was located at 28º15´ North latitude, 19 kinh45 West longitude, 190km west of La Palma’s position. Duquesa. The rescue team immediately contacted Duquesa via radio and confirmed that the four people they rescued were Ramón, Eliberto Hernández, Miguel and Julio aboard the Faust. According to the captain of the Duquesa, when the Faust was discovered, the people on board were dehydrated, hungry, red in the face and full of anxiety. After drinking soft drinks, food and cigars provided by the Duquesa, the crew almost regained their energy and strength. The captain of Duquesa offered to tow them back to La Palma, but the crew refused. They said that their ship is in good working order, there are no mechanical failures, power problems, as long as they provide enough fuel, food and water, they can continue to return. The place where Faust was found after the first disappearance, about 190 km from the original destination. Hearing what the crew of the Faust said, the captain of the Duquesa felt a little strange, but he did not investigate carefully, because the four crew members in front of him no longer seemed to have any health problems. healthy and they are very alert. After discussing with the crew of his ship, the captain of Duquesa agreed to the request of the other party. They had been in similar distress before and in their experience, with sufficient water and food supplies, these experienced sailors were often able to save themselves and return. Faust was then refueled for the 18-hour voyage, as well as enough food and fresh water for their return journey. Crew members on board the Duquesa observed them heading east and were expected to arrive at La Palma at 19 o’clock that evening. At this time, the people on the island felt very happy because of that, so they rushed to celebrate, preparing a grand banquet for the returning crew members, the wives and children of four members on the ship. is no exception. Crowds wait at the pier. But when the clock reached 19 o’clock, the people on the island still did not see any trace of the ship, but they still encouraged and comforted each other, believing that the Faust ship would soon return to port in this time. Until midnight, many people were still standing on the pier to wait, all that night, the family members of the members on the ship did not sleep but still tried to wait, intense anxiety and fear began to take over. everyone’s heart. The Faust was saved, but never returned, so where did they go? The name Faust is also a very popular story in Europe. The story goes that Faust was a scholar, an astronomer, a doctor, and an alchemist. He was so hungry for knowledge, that he began to study magic to satisfy his curiosity about all things. Realizing this, one day, Mephistopheles – the demon of hell – appeared before Faust and made a deal: Mephistopheles would serve Faust on earth for a while, doing everything Faust asked. Until Faust comes to a moment where he wants to live forever in that moment, he will die, and Faust’s soul will have to serve Mephistopheles in hell. Mephistopheles’ first job with Faust was to impress Gretchen, the neighbor Faust loved. With the help of Mephistopheles, Faust used his treasures and possessions to win the hearts of the whole Gretchen family. Later, Mephistopheles also caused the deaths of members of Gretchen’s family, to bring Gretchen closer to Faust. Eventually Gretchen became pregnant with Faust. Gretchen’s brother knew about it, and challenged Faust to a duel. With Mephisto’s aid, Faust kills Gretchen’s brother. Knowing this, Gretchen threw the infant into the river. She was later sent to prison for murder. When Faust arrives at the prison and uses Mephisto’s powers to save Gretchen, she refuses. When Faust left the prison, a voice came down from heaven, that the girl’s soul would be saved. Faust continued to use Mephisto’s service to travel the world, possessing all the riches, knowledge, and power of the world. However, the ending of the story is very unclear. There are several versions, Faust is saved by God, the soul goes to Heaven. There are also places where it is said that Faust must obey the agreement and go to hell to serve Mephistopheles

Digitalization empowers food safety risk management and control. Since 2020, Nanhai District has been continuously optimizing and accelerating the layout. The construction of the food safety risk detection and early warning system has progressed as scheduled, and the detection data has been uploaded and monitored in real time.

Since the launch of the food safety risk detection and early warning system on September 23, 2020, as of March 28, 2021, a total of 450,694 batches of rapid inspection data have been generated and collected, of which 4834 batches of positive suspicious samples were detected, with a suspicious rate of 1.1 %. 19.7 tons of edible agricultural products involving positive batches have all been initiated follow-up disposal mechanisms for harmless treatment and traceability, effectively ensuring the safety of the people’s tongue.

Big data empowers to realize food safety risk management and control in advance

“Food safety” is a core topic of concern to the whole society, and governments at all levels are under “pressure”. The quality and safety of agricultural products and food still have problems such as “difficult supervision, difficult law enforcement, and disorderly competition in the market”.

Focus on Nanhai District. At present, Nanhai District invests millions of financial funds for food sampling inspection every year. A large amount of result data is obtained in daily work. If these data can be used reasonably, centralized evaluation and analysis and unified forecasting and judgment can be carried out. Realize the early warning of food safety risks, and then realize the risk management and control in advance.

Therefore, in order to enhance the effectiveness of food safety supervision, maximize supervision efficiency, optimize supervision costs, and improve the level of food safety in Nanhai District, the Nanhai District Market Supervision Administration has innovated work ideas, proposed big data development concepts, and introduced food safety risk detection in Nanhai District. The early warning system does practical things for the masses.

It is understood that the system conducts centralized evaluation, analysis and unified prediction and judgment on a large amount of random inspection data generated in daily edible agricultural products quick inspection and food supervision and random inspection, establishes a risk assessment management system, and realizes risk early warning and forecasting and pre-control functions.

Currently, the system collects about 4,000 test data every day. The data comes from the 618 edible agricultural products rapid testing points that have been established in Nanhai District, covering farmer’s markets, primary and secondary schools, government agencies, catering centers, hospitals, supermarkets, etc. The detection points are equipped with new pesticide residue detectors, and all pesticide residue fast detectors realize the direct upload of detection results and process data.

The intelligent system uses big data analysis technology to issue early warnings to companies that fail to conduct pesticide residue detection on time and in accordance with the amount, and issue risk warnings to high-risk vegetable varieties and vegetable supply companies.

It is worth mentioning that the system’s early warning and hierarchical disposal mechanism automatically pushes risk warning information to the corresponding supervisors through mobile phone WeChat, SMS and computer terminals, and supervisors activate the corresponding disposal mechanism according to the actual situation. For edible agricultural products that fail to pass the inspection at each inspection point, they shall be removed from the shelves and destroyed in strict accordance with the requirements of relevant laws and regulations. Depending on the discovery of unqualified products, it will initiate traceability joint law enforcement, promptly issue consumer warnings, and list the product or supplier as a key subject of supervision, and carry out relevant investigations to prevent risks.

Continuously optimize and upgrade to ensure the safety of the people’s tongue

Now, when you walk into all the farmer’s markets in Nanhai District, you can see that the market has a testing room. The staff will conduct a quick inspection of the agricultural products on sale in the testing room every morning.

The testing room is also equipped with a pesticide residue rapid detector, which can detect the result data of pesticide residues in just 15 minutes. The detection data has been seamlessly connected to the Nanhai District Food Safety Risk Detection and Early Warning System in real time, and the data will be uploaded to the District Data Coordination Bureau. Through in-depth analysis of food inspection data in the whole district, the regulatory authorities can intuitively understand the high and frequent risks of food safety in different regions and various fields, and formulate relevant policies in a timely manner to make supervision more targeted and efficient, thereby establishing a region The long-term food safety supervision mechanism effectively guarantees “safety on the tip of the tongue.”

Specifically, the first is to promote comprehensively around the “four bases (machines)”. That is, fund + base + institution + mechanism: one is the fund. The source of input is “district and town government + unit + enterprise”, which ensures the normal operation of the project. The second is the base, which is 1+1000, “1” is the regional bureau headquarters system, and “1000” is the construction of 1,000 inspection points. At present, there are 618 rapid inspection points in use, and the target number is 1,000 by the end of this year. The third is the organization, the establishment of district and town leadership structures and work teams, and the establishment of inspection teams, training and guidance teams, and supervision teams respectively. The fourth is the mechanism to establish a series of working mechanisms, such as the positive handling mechanism of the district and township market supervision and management system, the inspector training and education reward mechanism, and the district bureau’s supervision mechanism (verification and spot check mechanism) over the supervision offices, construction sites, and institutions. )Wait.

The second is to improve the level of data analysis. In terms of the implementation of quick inspection and quick processing, the system generates about 3,600 batches of quick inspection data for edible agricultural products every day. Since the new system was launched on September 23, 2020 to March 28, 2021, a total of 450,694 batches of quick inspection data have been generated and collected. Among them, 4834 batches of positive suspicious samples were detected, with a suspicious rate of 1.1%, and 19.7 tons of edible agricultural products involving positive batches. The follow-up disposal mechanism has been activated for harmless treatment and traceability.

In terms of building the legal inspection database, the current legal inspection data import module in the system has been tested, and the data import is in progress. For the newly generated legal inspection data, it is planned to update once a month; for the past data, it will be gradually collected from near to far in time. At the same time, the legal inspection data will be classified and summarized and the analysis module debugging and analysis will be carried out to extract high risks. Industry, high-risk product information.

Food safety affects thousands of households. In the future, Nanhai District plans to add 382 quick inspection points based on the original 618 quick inspection points for edible agricultural products. By the end of 2021, the total will increase to 1,000, covering all the agricultural markets in the district, most schools, nurseries, and institutions. Unit canteens, some key catering companies, food material distribution associations and supermarkets, etc., continue to optimize the food safety risk detection and early warning system. Through in-depth analysis of the quality detection data of edible agricultural products in the whole district, we can understand the high incidence and frequency of food safety in different regions and various fields. Where the risks are, timely formulation of relevant policies to make supervision more targeted and efficient, so as to establish a long-term monitoring mechanism for regional food safety, open up a new situation in the food safety supervision work in the South China Sea, and effectively guarantee the safety of the people’s tongue.

Protection of the world’s oceans Hope for the “Blue Economy”

As of: 06/08/2021 12:59 p.m.

The seas are at risk from climate change, pollution and overfishing. But gradually a rethink is also beginning in the economy – the protection of the oceans is recognized as a business. From Notker Blechner, tagesschau.de Sometimes an accident can lead to a complete change in life. For example with Emily Penn. The architect and passionate sailor had her aha experience on a boat trip from Great Britain to Australia. “One night all the passengers woke up to a loud bang,” she says. “Our ship had rammed a plastic mountain – in the middle of the ocean, away from any civilization.” Since then, Penn has been committed to protecting the oceans, giving lectures, organizing events and doing research expeditions to find solutions to the fight against the plastic flood in the oceans. Penn is known as the “advocate for the seas”.

Shoes, sunglasses and backpacks made from ocean trash

The marine activist is encouraged by increasing business initiatives against plastic waste pollution in the oceans. Several companies and start-ups have developed methods of making new products from marine litter. Adidas offers shoes and jerseys made from recycled “ocean plastic”. Other manufacturers are making new sunglasses, backpacks and skateboards out of marine plastic waste. Even the Dutchman Boyen Slat, founder of the start-up “Ocean Cleanup”, now sells sunglasses with frames made from recycled ocean plastic. “Ocean Cleanup” collects plastic waste on the open sea with ships. The Italian Giulio Bonazzi has managed to make a special fiber – Econyl – from old fishing nets, which is used for tights and bikinis. Bonazzi calculates that every ton of Econyl saves six tons of carbon dioxide.

Marketing gimmick?

Environmentalists warn against being misled. Products made from ocean plastic are often a marketing gimmick and misleading. In some of them there is hardly any plastic waste from the oceans, according to the WWF. Nevertheless: The fight against the mountains of plastic has now begun in business and politics. The G20 states have announced that they will ban plastic waste from the world’s oceans by 2050. It is currently estimated that around 13 million tons of plastic waste end up in the oceans every year.

14 coastal countries are leading the way in marine protection

The pictures of polluted beaches after tankers leaked like now back in Sri Lanka show how important global marine protection is. A total of 14 countries, including Australia, Canada, Japan, Indonesia, Mexico and Norway, have come together in a kind of “Ocean Panel” and have committed to sustainably managing their national waters in the future. “For too long we have made the wrong choice between marine protection and production,” admits Norway’s Prime Minister Erna Solberg, co-head of the Ocean Panel.

Danger to the species: A sea turtle that has become entangled in a drifting net. Image: picture alliance / AP Photo According to a study that was published in the journal “Nature” at the end of March, hundreds of millions of CO2 could be saved through marine protection. So far, not even three percent of the world’s oceans have been strictly protected. The study’s authors see the greatest potential in restricting bottom trawling. This controversial fishing method involves ships pulling a net across the ocean floor. The living beings on the ground are destroyed, plants are uprooted and spawning grounds for fish are destroyed. In addition, the agitation of the seabed releases organic carbon compounds and converts them into climate-damaging CO2.

Great potential for CO2 savings

The Ocean Panel has proposed several measures to promote marine and climate protection: In addition to carbon storage in the seabed, the panel recommends sustainable fishing and aquaculture, the expansion of offshore energy in the sea and ocean-compatible transport. According to calculations, this could reduce carbon dioxide emissions by a fifth, trigger investments of over 15 trillion dollars and create 12 million new jobs. Indeed, there is a gradual rethinking of the maritime economy. The International Maritime Organization has mandated stricter sulfur emissions values ​​in 2020. Instead of using heavy fuel oil, the ships now have to run on marine diesel. The only exception: ships with so-called scrubber exhaust gas cleaning systems are still allowed to use heavy fuel oil. Over 350 container and cruise ships as well as tankers have switched to liquefied natural gas (LNG). LNG contains no sulfur, hardly any nitrogen oxides and 20 percent less CO2. However, the greenhouse gas methane allegedly escapes. “The liquefied natural gas turns out to be a harmful wrong path,” says Nabu in the meantime. Shore power systems have been put into operation in Rostock-Warnemünde and Hamburg so that cruise ships do not need the ship’s diesel for power supply while they are in port.

“Blue Economy” becomes a billion dollar business

Investors such as the DWS fund company from Deutsche Bank have long been interested in the “blue economy”. According to the WWF, the ocean’s annual “gross sea product” is $ 2.5 trillion. This would make the “blue economy” the eighth largest economy in the world. DWS fund manager Paul Buchwitz predicts that the “blue economy” will grow twice as fast as the established economy by 2030. The “blue economy” includes companies that help to reduce marine pollution and curb ocean acidification – as well as those that deal with the sustainable use of marine resources, ecosystems and sustainable fisheries.

Friends come and go. It is a fact of life. There are friends who were once very close and did not hesitate to express all their sincere thoughts and feelings in front of each other, but now they are no longer in contact. Some people have naturally disappeared from each other’s lives and some have left for personal reasons, individual changes in the process of growing up. When they leave, they take a part of us with them. Most of us often mistake “friends” for friends and set our expectations too high in that relationship. On the contrary, we also meet new people and see them as soulmates, ready to open up to them about everything in life. However, if that’s really the case, that’s great, but most of us often mistake “friends” for friends and set too high expectations in that relationship, but forget to observe their desire to be friends really, or just socializing. Identify who you want to build true friendships with Friends may be different in personality and opinion, but there must be similarity in thinking and ability. Not everyone is suitable for building a genuine, high-quality friendship. Different people will vibrate at different levels of consciousness and that will help you filter out who you can connect with. For example: A person with low self-esteem would not be suitable to be friends with an overconfident or ostentatious person; A courageous, experimental person would not be suitable to play too closely with someone who only speaks loudly but dares not to act. Because this will cause a situation where one person restrains/depends on the other, or one person is influenced/disadvantaged by the other. It’s almost a parasite-host, not a true friendship. Friends can be different in personality and opinion, but there must be similarity in thinking and ability (maybe in 2 different aspects, but cannot be too big of a difference). More importantly, the two words match. What true friendships have in common Sticky bonded friendships often have things in common. Analyzing the admirably attached types of friendship, we can see the common points: – They are always there for each other in difficult times or down times in life and help lift spirits. – They have never evaluated and criticized each other for the mistakes of the opponent, They are also not negative with the mistakes, the moves that go into the ground of their friends. – More successful people always support and encourage their friends in all aspects of life. The less successful people, instead of envious and secretly pulling each other down, they admire and appreciate the support of their best friend. – Their friendship usually evolves from a common environment, such as school, workplace, business project, etc.. There they started with win-win and mutual support, so When friendship sprouts it will grow into a very sturdy old tree. Be a best friend before looking for best friends Before I expect to find a good friend, I have to become a good friend myself! Before I expect to find a good friend, I have to become a good friend myself. We must learn to listen and share, build trust with friends by supporting and helping them when they need it. Support your friend’s positive decisions as well as encourage them to practice good habits, experience interesting, interesting things… We also need to learn to put the needs of others before our own. myself. And care about what others are going through in their lives. Things that make a friendship stronger and stronger Without the following, the friendship will break at any time. The starting point for true, true friendships is unconditional kindness, non-judgment, support, and mutual respect. In particular, it must be coming from 2 sides. Without these things, the friendship will “break” at any time.

Photographed in Xiangshan, Ningbo, Zhejiang in May 2021. During the May Day holiday this year, the 17th Film and Television Carnival in the scenic area of ​​Xiangshan Film and Television City came as scheduled. Compared with previous years, this year’s activities are more diverse and rich in forms. Whether in the scenic area or outside the scenic area, visitors can feel a strong festive atmosphere, which is also the key to the popularity of the entire scenic area. As soon as I arrived at the gate of the scenic spot, in the Shendiao Square, one of the highlights of this year’s film and television carnival was “Inheriting the Quintessence of the Country, and Ode to the Party by Hundred Zheng”. The Guzheng performance team composed of more than 200 children and teachers put on the words “100”, the melodious sound of the zither and the shocking scene attracted a large number of tourists to stop and watch. Such a scene is really rare. After watching the Guzheng performance and entering the scenic spot, the lively parade of costume floats is waiting for everyone here. In the grand parade of floats, a few beauties in ancient costumes became the focus. All men, women and children, young and old, were deeply attracted by their beautiful makeup. Everyone could not help but take out their mobile phones to take photos. The scene was a lively scene. Following the floats all the way forward, the program is getting richer and richer, and there are more and more tourists. This is outside Xiangyang City (built by Zhang Jizhong in the filming of “The Legend of Condor Heroes”), and the scene of Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv fighting against the Golden Wheel Fa King is being staged. The actors are randomly invited live audiences. Although the make-up is a bit crude and the actors’ acting skills are a bit clumsy, they can bring a lot of joy to everyone. This is enough. Come out to play for fun. Entering the lively city of Xiangyang, only then did you really feel what a sea of ​​people is. The bustling streets give people a feeling of crossing the Song Dynasty. All kinds of things from ancient times are not enough to see and not enough to shoot. Occasionally, various traditional Chinese folk acrobatics will appear on the street, and the performances are wonderful. Whether you can find a suitable viewing position depends on your personal ability. Of course, your absolute height is the same everywhere. The most lively show in the entire Xiangyang city is the number of the richest man Wang Wanjia recruiting his son-in-law, it is a gift from the emperor, with imperial decree. Who can snatch the hydrangea thrown by Miss Wang’s family is the Wang’s son-in-law. Seeing that so many people downstairs want to join the pedigree, I guess there are not many people in this scene. The site of the station is all for people to stand, there is no way everyone likes to watch the excitement, there is a gap to watch a movie. What I admire most is these people behind the partition, and they are taking pictures with their mobile phones. Can they be taken clearly? Haha, the focus is on participating in this lively atmosphere. Chinese people celebrate the festival as a fun, you say no. After leaving Xiangyang City, we went to Dali Palace to have a look. This is the exclusive venue for the star meeting in Xiangshan Film and Television City. It is always here. In Xiangshan Film and Television City, more than 1,500 film and television works have been filmed. In recent years, many familiar film and television works have been filmed here. Now there are dozens of crews filming every day, with all kinds of stars. During May Day, there will be a celebrity meeting every afternoon at the Dali Palace. Don’t miss it. There may be a celebrity you like. Looking all the way, I accidentally came to the Republic of China City. There will be a thrilling, tense, and exciting magic flywheel performance here during the May Day. The entire flywheel is 5 meters high, and the actors have to perform various thrilling actions on it. Of course, the more exciting the show, the more attractive it is to tourists. If you look at the entire square crowded with tourists, I feel more shocked than the show. Of course, the activities in the film and television city during May 1st are far more than these, I won’t introduce them one by one, wait for everyone to appreciate it yourself. Finally, take everyone to see the spectacular scene of the parking lot. how about it? In the 1.5-kilometer-long parking lot, thousands of large and small cars parked here, which can only be described as shock. It is worth mentioning that parking here is free. Based on this alone, I can only say that the Xiangshan Film and Television City is really magnificent. The parking fee for so many cars is a lot of income. Therefore, there is a reason why Xiangshan Film and Television City has been so popular.

Ga Choi island (or Trong Mai island) is located in the southwest of Ha Long Bay, about 5 km from Bai Chay beach. The island is made up of 2 giant rocks in the middle of the sea. This unique name comes from the island shape like 2 roosters and hens with their heads together. This is considered a tourism symbol of Quang Ninh province. Whale Island (or Ong Island) is a small island located in Van Phong Bay, Khanh Hoa province. There is only one resort on the island. During your stay here, you will be immersed in the unspoiled natural scenery, scuba diving, kayaking, exploring the primeval forest… Monkey Island (or Lao island) in Nha Phu Bay, is one of the famous tourist attractions of the coastal city.

Sea turtles are wrapped around a plastic net. Blue sea cries for help Sea pollution is happening more and more seriously! That is the affirmation of many domestic and foreign environmental experts and organizations. In Vietnam, for many years now, due to waste from human activities, marine pollution has been clearly noticed. According to estimates by scientists, 80% of the waste entering the sea comes from activities on land. Vietnam has 112 estuaries, which is the source for garbage to drift into the ocean. Many creatures mistake garbage for food or get caught between fishing gear leading to habitat destruction. Data from the United Nations Environment Program announced in 2018, each year Vietnam discharges 0.28 to 0.73 million tons of plastic waste into the ocean (accounting for 6% of the world), ranking fourth in the world. A huge amount of garbage is dumped from the mainland to the sea every day by many different routes. Many coastal estuaries have been polluted by industrial and urban wastewater. In many coastal provinces, the discharge of untreated or untreated wastes has not met the standards, causing great economic losses, life and livelihoods of coastal communities and unpredictable damages. for marine ecosystems. However, this situation is not only happening in Vietnam. On a larger scale, marine environments around the globe are on red alert. The biggest danger comes from the huge amount of plastic waste that is floating day and night on the ocean currents. Although warnings about plastic pollution are continuously raised to a higher level, although countries have been trying to solve the problem from plastic waste and recycling, it is difficult to solve the problem on the basis of an early mooth afternoon. In fact, plastic waste has been slowly accumulating in the marine and ocean environment since the 1960s, to the point where we have huge mountains of plastic floating in the ocean and other plastic waste drifting across the oceans. Beautiful clean beaches in the world. There are an estimated 580,000 different sized pieces of plastic per square kilometer, with more than 8 million tons of plastic waste entering the oceans each year. The amount of plastic from waste can release harmful chemicals that seep into the surrounding soil, which can then seep into groundwater or other surrounding water sources and the world’s ecosystems. This can seriously harm water-drinking species, including marine and terrestrial creatures, including humans. Environmental activists have warned that there could be more plastic waste than fish in the oceans by 2050. Globally, it is estimated that more than 100 million marine animals are killed each year by plastic waste. . Black sewage discharged into a sea. Return the roof to sea creatures According to statistics of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, marine pollution in recent years has caused many marine species to plummet in number, some species have become locally extinct. Up to 236 rare and precious aquatic species are threatened at different levels, of which more than 70 marine species have been listed in the Red Book of Vietnam. The exploited seafood resources are increasingly depleted in both quantity and quality. Fish stocks have declined from 4 million tons in 1990 to 3 million tons today. The average fish size and species diversity also decreased significantly. What is heartbreaking in the consequences of pollution is the disappearance of populations of turtles in the water. Vietnam has five of the seven species of turtles in the world. These are snail, tortoiseshell, hawksbill turtle, leatherback turtle, and pineapple tortoiseshell, all five species are currently included in the Vietnam Red Book. Many species are almost extinct. Previously, sea turtles were distributed mostly in the seas of our country with high density. Looking at the information box about sea turtle species, we can see that all five species of sea turtles in Vietnam are now in a significant decline in numbers. During the period from 2008 to 2013, only one leatherback turtle was recorded on Cat Dai beach in Cam Lam district (Khanh Hoa province) and Hai Lang (Quang Tri province) in 2013. In other localities There have been leatherback turtles to lay eggs like Quang Ngai, Binh Dinh, Phu Yen… there is absolutely no trace of leatherback turtles coming ashore to lay eggs. Expanding to Southeast Asia and the world, quite a few marine animals are in danger of extinction. Photographs taken by photographers around the world show the dire plight of many creatures in response to the onslaught of garbage. The fishes are wrapped around the body with nylon rope. Dead fish in a plastic soda bottle. The long-snouted fish was starved to death by a rubber band wrapped around its snout. Sea turtles swallow plastic foam until their intestines are blocked. Many of them died with a large amount of plastic in their stomachs. In June 2018, a whale was found on Songkhla beach, southern Thailand, choking to death with 80 pieces of plastic garbage weighing 8 kg in its stomach. Around the same time, a green turtle was found dead in Chanthaburi, Thailand, with plastic debris from fishing gear, rubber bands and other marine debris in its stomach. In 2016, a Sei whale and a Baleen whale were found on a beach in the southern Malaysian state of Johor. The photos and stories that bring tears to the viewer’s eyes as a shock to human conscience: Live well and let the creatures have “living land”. It is the irresponsibility, lack of consciousness and greed of mankind that have contributed to climate change, global warming, and creatures being hunted and destroyed. The ocean here and there changes color, only a dull brown color thanks to the secretion of plastic waste, sewage… And where is it only marine life that is destroyed by humans? Sea life is gradually worn down by the pollution of the ocean, causing people’s lives to be turned upside down, poisoned, and reduced quality of life. Back to the story in Vietnam, in order to conserve endemic, precious and rare aquatic species, the State has issued many policies to protect aquatic resources as well as conservation and regeneration of aquatic species. , valuable assets such as: Law on Fisheries 2017; Decision No. 742 in 2010 on planning and setting up 16 marine protected areas; Decision 1479 in 2008 on planning and setting up 45 inland aquatic conservation zones; Decree No. 33/2010 on management of fishing activities; Circular 19/2018 guiding the protection and development of aquatic resources… The most recent is Decree No. 26/2019/ND-CP detailing a number of articles and measures to implement the Fisheries Law 2017, including content on management of endangered and rare aquatic species… People’s habits, from daily living habits to making a living, fishing with fishery exist a lot of ugly behaviors, thinking only of their own benefits but casually destroying the surrounding environment. However, in parallel with the regulations applied in life, there is also a need for a “big surgery” in people’s awareness. It is a change of perception by practical, thorough and effective propaganda. That is the practical action of young people when carrying out environmental protection projects, from picking up beach trash, exchanging trash for trees, beach trash projects… Every small change turns into a big change. If each person is subject to positive change, the environment and life will be more positive and greener. We have a big roof to live in, so do creatures. Change and action is to protect the roof for people, aquatic creatures and onshore.

Storm flowers are milky white, have 5 thin petals, bloom in clusters… In contrast, the flowers of the maple tree are slightly yellow. Storms interweave long lines along the coast. Storms not only have the effect of blocking wind, sand, salt tolerance and preserving soil, but also provide shade and shelter for other plants. In front of the Primary School and Cultural House of Sinh Ton island commune, there are maple trees. Storm tree in front of Nam Yet lighthouse. The storm leaves are almost like the square leaves, but thinner and smaller; soft, not as hard as the leaves, but very easy to crush. The three maple tree on Song Tu Tay Island is recognized as a Vietnam Heritage Tree. The height of the tree from the ground is 25m, the trunk circumference is 3.8m, the canopy is 35m wide. Through many storms, the tree canopy was shaken by the wind many times but still stood firm. The storm flower is so fragile, but the vitality is extremely strong. Sprouts of maple trees continue to proliferate. The storm tree stands proudly and lushly by the seashore, standing proudly in the middle of the sun and wind, burning skin and flesh. Phong Ba has become a symbol of courage, indomitable will of the land and Vietnamese people in the open sea, preserving the sovereignty of the sacred sea and islands of the Fatherland.

After a period of “rest”, runner-up Ngoc Thao returned to the “beauty race” with a new image that made everyone excited. This is also her first official comeback after Miss Grand 2020. After the success of “bringing the bell to fight the country” at the Miss Grand International 2020 contest in Thailand with a Top 20 achievement, the second runner-up Miss Vietnam won the hearts of fans because of her confident and her radiance. It can be said that Ngoc Thao is one of the rare beauties who has the opportunity to “bring the bell to fight the country” in the context of the current epidemic. The beauty has successfully followed a series of impressive achievements from seniors such as Kieu Loan, Phuong Nga, Huyen My… Appearing in a new set of photos, runner-up Ngoc Thao cleverly shows off her figure under a poetic setting under the summer sun with beach dresses. Through each frame, the beauty shows off her well-proportioned body with attractive bare shoulders and long flowing hair. This appearance of Ngoc Thao made fans surprised by her fragile and elegant appearance and gentle makeup tone, not as bold and prominent as when she competed in Miss Grand in Thailand. After impressive achievements at the Miss Grand 2020 contest, Ngoc Thao is eager to return with many new projects in the near future. She also expressed her wish that the epidemic situation would become better so that she could return to her work. New pictures of runner-up Ngoc Thao in her first re-export after Miss Grand 2020:

The length of the wall extends from Hainan fishing village to Hon Kho During the day, when the water rises, from Nhon Hai looking to Hon Kho is still a vast sea of ​​water. At dusk, the sun gradually turned off, and the new wall appeared. The water here is not too deep, but because of that, it is not possible to run close by canoe, but must go on a rowing boat to reach this unique wall. “Be careful, the rocks are very easy to get hurt,” Sy reminded us when we excitedly put our hands into the clear sea. From the fishing village to the wall, you can only go by rowing boat like Mr. Sy’s boat. Temporarily anchoring the boat to a ledge, Mr. Sy said he could stay here as long as he wanted, until the water dried up completely. We reached the wall on the full moon day, that’s when the water was almost completely drained. If in another season, the solid connections from the rocks will be clearly seen, but now, only a green color of moss is visible. In the morning, the wall is submerged in sea water A few years ago, tourists to Hon Kho were few, and few people knew about the existence of the wall. But now more people come here. In addition to being curious about a mysterious construction on the sea, it is also because it is a very suitable place for “virtual living” photos. The wall rises out of the water in the afternoon The break is said to be the gate of the city for boats to pass through From Quy Nhon city, go across Thi Nai bridge to Phuong Mai peninsula, straight towards Nhon Hai, to Hai Nam fishing village, you can see the wall. But few people come to Nhon Hai without spending a little more time to take a boat out to walk on the strange wall surface. When the tide recedes, the wall is exposed with moss There is no record of an artificial wall in the Nhon Hai area. Ancient records only recorded four great walls built by the Champa people in Binh Dinh, including Thi Nai citadel in Tuy Phuoc district, Do Ban citadel, Chas citadel in An Nhon town, and Uat Tri citadel in Tay Son district. Only the third lunar month has so many mosses Was the wall in Nhon Hai built by man or a miracle of nature? But the people here, including Mr. Sy, believe that it is a legacy of many previous generations. Looking from the Nam Hai fishing village in the direction of the wall to Hon Kho, three distinct segments of the wall are clearly seen. The gaps between the sections are enough for small boats to pass through, which Mr. Sy surmises may have been the gates for ancient ships to pass through. It could simply be a dam built to break waves as Sy guessed, or it could be a defensive work of the Champa people – that mystery is still waiting for an answer. The flora and fauna here are quite interesting Natural grape seaweed is quite abundant here The wall surface is quite wide, about 3-4m, when the water recedes, you can walk comfortably. The wall is about 3 kilometers long. Even at the broken sections, the fishermen said that when the afternoon falls, the water only reaches the neck level, and can swim through easily. If on the full moon day, the tide is at its lowest, from above you can see the full stretch of the wall. Abundant biome in the middle of the sea It is moss season, so the wall is an extremely rich biome. From the Ganoderma lucidum, to the completely natural grape seaweed bushes. Starfish glittering in the water or clownfish hiding among the moss. The wall is now an attractive photography destination for many tourists Pointing to a boat also anchored in the distance, Mr. Sy said that his family had been here since morning until now. They went to Hon Kho, then rowed the boat over the wall, but still attached to this place…

Hon Cau in May, the sea water is clear and blue, each wave is gently lapping against the sand. The southern monsoon season, which lasts from May to October, is also the breeding season for turtles. Hon Cau Marine Reserve is located on a corner of the island, standing here, you can hear the whispers of the waves, the wind and the sea caressing the white sand slopes. Ms. Luu Yen Phi is the only female employee of the Nature Reserve. Hon Cau Sea For many years, she and her brothers and sisters in the group participated in the work of the patrol team to prevent boats from fishing in the reserve. She shared: “In the breeding season, turtles will come up to lay eggs. There are 4-5 turtles on the island or up, so the brothers will divide to watch turtles to avoid people coming to catch them. Turtle eggs will be brought to the beaches. Incubate and observe. From 45 to 60 days, the baby turtles will hatch and be released into the sea.” Being a “midwife” for turtles is a job that needs a lot of love and enthusiasm. The first time from the mainland to the island, Ms. Phi was also “stunned” by the waves crashing on the side of the boat, or her skin was also darkened by the sun and wind of Hon Cau. But for a long time without going to the sea, she felt very “uncomfortable”. Because the smell of the sun, the wind, the passionate smell of Hon Cau sea has created an inseparable taste of life in her. Being a girl, participating in conservation work is somewhat more difficult. There are days when she is on duty on the island, she is alone and walking on the way from the station to the turtle spawning ground at 1 or 2 am. Where there is so much love yêu There are evenings, the whole team like “holding their breath” when following the turtle’s footsteps. The brothers waited for the turtles to lay their eggs and then brought the eggs back to the incubator. During the day, everyone will come together to clean up the trash and clean the sea. Yen Phi confided: “ Every time I go to the island, I feel happy and familiar. Those who buy rough seas, I don’t go to the island, I miss them very much. Unlike the mainland, the “house” on the island is just enough for basic living, eating and resting, not too comfortable. But it is the place to pack so many memories of my years here. The brothers also split up to cook and support each other.” The members of Hon Cau Marine Protected Area all have a lot of love for the sea and for the gentle turtles. “Here, people can live in harmony with nature. The process of caring for and taking care of turtles is also an emotional journey. Around 45 -60 days, when the turtle eggs are about to hatch, cracks will appear on the ground. . I have to gently use medical gloves to put the turtle in the basket. When it reaches adulthood, it will return to the place it was born to continue to reproduce.” Phi said more. Rescue journeys The reason why the group has to maintain the garbage collection at the beach is because there have been many cases of turtles swallowing plastic bags. When in the sea, plastic bags are shaped like strength, so turtles will choke if they eat them. Phi once witnessed turtles eat the wrong straw when pulling out a lot of blood. Or there are days when turtles get caught in fisherman’s nets and are transported to pubs, the group has to rush to “rescue”. She said: “ When I received news that turtles were being sold to pubs, I had to get there as quickly as possible to lobby them to release them. After receiving the turtle, the group will bring it back to the sea to release. For many years, people have been trying to do propaganda to people about the conservation of sea turtles.” Occasionally, the center receives cases of turtles being kept in freshwater for a long time by people. When the issue of conservation of sea turtles became known to many people, they automatically handed over the turtles. Phi shared: “I couldn’t release them into the sea, because they had lost their wild instincts and couldn’t hunt. The group had to release them into a big lake, bring salt water back to the turtles to get used to the salinity every day, and at the same time train them instincts. Depending on the case, from 3 to 6 months or 1 year, we can release them back to the sea.” Volunteers come to Hon Cau island every year There are more heartbreaking cases than when I saw a turtle eating the wrong straw, when I pulled the straw out, I lost a lot of blood. Turtles hitting explosives washed up on the beach, which were not intact or were butchered by people on boats and washed ashore. Experiencing difficulties, hardships and “suffocating” rescue journeys, but Phi and her teammates still maintain this work with enthusiasm. “In order for my children and grandchildren to know what turtles are like in the future.

The Perpetual Coral Cemetery is part of the restoration and restoration of the marine environment. “As soon as I received his ashes from the crematorium, I suddenly thought about what it would be like to let him lie on the bottom of his favorite ocean, becoming a beautiful part of the ocean ecosystem,” recalls Brawley. Efforts to save corals Eternal Reefs is a funeral company based in Florida (USA). It is famous for the most “beautiful” burial method, which contributes to the regeneration of the marine ecosystem. The beginning of Eternal Reefs is quite simple. In the late 1980s, a pair of scuba diving friends, Don Brawley and Todd Barber, of the University of Georgia noticed that coral reefs were deteriorating. They decided to do something to stop the decline and quickly recover. After much discussion and design, Brawley and Barber were satisfied with the initiative of Reef balls. They use natural materials that both have good cohesion and attract marine life, molded into an upside-down, hollow bowl shape, with many circular holes all around. These holes allow water to pass through, avoiding being knocked over by the waves and allowing animals to get in and out. A bowl of coral can weigh from 800 – 4,000 pounds (360 – 1,800kg), sink and settle on the seabed forever. Its structure acts as a home for small animals, immediately attracting them to swim in. After just a few weeks, the artificially implanted coral tissues on the surface of the bowl grew, turning the bare bowl frame into a lively, eye-catching cluster of coral. Sea creatures flock to each other, forming diverse natural habitats. Immediately after its introduction, the coral bowl has become the most effective solution to save the ocean ecosystem. As of 2020, more than 70 countries have applied it to about 5,000 marine restoration projects, placing over 750,000 bowls across the ocean. Perfect submerged cemetery Family members are encouraged to make their own bowls of coral reefs. In early 1998, Brawley’s father-in-law, Carleton “Petey” Glen Palmer, died. During his life, Palmer was extremely fond of the sea, always wishing after death to still see the ocean floor. “Spray my ashes into the sea, where there are plenty of snapper and grouper,” he left a testament to Brawley. While sitting in memory of his father-in-law in front of the urn recently received from the crematorium, Brawley suddenly had a strange idea. That is to mix the ashes with the coral bowl casting mixture and start immediately. On May 1, 1998, Brawley buried his father-in-law and nine pioneers with a bowl of coral in Sarasota Beach, Florida. The first human ashes coral cemetery was born, after only a few months, it became a beautiful part of the underwater landscape. Or believe, sea lovers race to enjoy diving. Former marines, marine environmentalists, fishermen, divers, etc. who are about to be “near land far from heaven” warmly welcome Eternal Reefs. The sea grave coral bowl quickly became popular. Eternal Reefs allows and encourages bereaved families to participate in the process of making coral bowls, carving tombstones, launching… The location of the sea grave coral bowl is the reef area that has been designated for ecological restoration. In addition to the burial coral bowls, ordinary coral bowls are also placed, serving the regeneration of the marine environment. “2nd Life” After only a few months, the bowl of sea coral has turned into a home for a large number of sea creatures. On average each year, Eternal Reefs contributes 120 – 150 bowls of sea coral in thousands of artificial coral bowls. Depending on the size, the cost for a bowl of sea grave coral ranges from 4,000 – 7,500 USD (about 91 – 170 million VND). Eternal Reefs does not limit the number of ashes in a bowl of coral, so the bereaved can choose to bury one or more people. They are also allowed to attach memorial objects to the coral bowl, but must ensure that it is environmentally friendly. During the process of bringing the bowl of coral to the sea and launching it, the bereaved family can combine a farewell ceremony. Once placed on the seabed, the bowl of sea coral will stay in place forever. Relatives of the deceased have the right to visit, but are not allowed to move or collect. In recent years, in addition to those who work in the sea-related industry, Eternal Reefs also welcomes many other customers. Among these, there are many people who are parents who have met the fate of “silver-headed and green-headed”. They are too pitiful, want their lost child to have a second life and find salvation in the bowl of coral reefs. Compared with 750,000 bowls of artificial coral placed all over the seabed, the bowl of sea grave coral only accounts for a small number. However, Brawley believes it will make a big difference in burial customs around the world. In fact, the world is filled with more and more people who don’t want to rest in traditional ways. With the exception of marine grave coral bowls, many other ecological burial methods have also captured the attention. For example, composting corpses into soil, hydrolysis, releasing ashes into space…

Major cities such as Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou are expected to welcome large numbers of tourists during this year’s holiday season. A section of the Great Wall is crowded during a holiday.

But what are those obstacles compared to these wonderful experiences, the pride that money can’t buy, right?

Carefree waves erase The bird sends a song to the blue sky The wind brings into nothingness *** I’m noisy, sad, happy, sea biển Silently know who to send I haven’t cried yet, it’s already salty I’m not happy that the waves have melted *** The wind caressed the long silky hair Blue beach with love sign Blurry mountains look silver sea Clouds fly over the waves of thousands of years *** Looking for the footprints of the past The sea lullabies a white lullaby I met me in a frozen seashell Oh dear heaven and earth… Comments The general feeling of the poem is the nothingness, the dissolution of all things into the immense heaven and earth. Footprints in the sand, the song of the blue sky, the sign of love, happiness or sadness, noise or silence, like a wild song on the white tide. The perception of brevity and nothingness evokes in us thoughts of existence. Perhaps, standing in front of the blue mountains and the silver sea, one can see most clearly the smallness of human life. Where do we cry but the sea is already salty? Where am I happy that the waves have melted? Meeting yourself in a watery shell is a very suggestive image. That small heart contains the immensity of heaven and earth. Maybe it’s a consolation. On the journey to find traces of existence, the heart of the seashell shines into the sky and the shape of the sea, the blue shore, the yellow beach and the blue mountains. Does anyone hear, a sigh before nothingness!

Mr. Salamak Klathalay. Photo: CNN. This unique way of life came to an abrupt end in 2005, following the 2004 tsunami. The Moken people survived, even completely unscathed after the disaster, relying on the traditional experience of foraging for high ground. than to avoid waves. However, in an effort to assimilate the Moken into Thai culture, the government has moved more than 300 Moken people to more fortified land, in the area of ​​Ko Surin National Park, Phang Nga province. , Southern Thailand. Since then, the Moken have more or less adapted to a relatively modern life. They have gradually built a village with simple wooden and bamboo houses, equipped with solar panels and running water. And for the first time, they get a regular source of income from tourism. Ngoey Klathalay – Head of the village said: “We make money from selling souvenirs to tourists or leading boat tours”; “On average, about 100 tourists visit the village every day.” However, the Covid-19 pandemic suddenly broke out in early 2020, forcing the Thai Government to close to international tourism, losing the almost only source of income for the Moken people. In that moment, the survival instinct – sailing, hunting and gathering again strongly rose up in Moken people. Hook Klathalay, Ngoey’s brother, said: “I’ve been living on this boat for two years.” For Hook, the attraction of the sea prompted him to quickly return to the traditional Moken life. Mr. Hook Klathalay. Photo: CNN Hook and his son built a boat with tools such as nets, hooks, three-pronged spears… and conducted daily hunting trips in various shallow waters. “With just a little rice, we can get the rest of the necessities in the ocean,” says Hook. Hook adds that the pressure of the Covid-19 pandemic has caused the Moken to re-evaluate their way of life; many Mokens told Hook that they wanted to live in a boat, on the ocean. Many Moken people are also gradually returning to hunting, daily collecting shellfish, crustaceans and small fish through rudimentary tools such as knives and spears. However, the sea is not the only source of food for the Moken. They also go to the wooded islands to dig for tubers they call “murung”. Boiled and peeled, the “murung” tuber has a texture and flavor similar to that of a “water chestnut”. Ngoey said: “Since the outbreak of Covid-19, the income of Moken people has decreased, but not much in my opinion; We are not desperate, we are not starving. For a long time we were not dependent on tourism, we only did tourism for a few years. But we will always have the sea.”

April 30: Coffee shop attracts tourists The first place the group visited was The Wilder Nest, a cafe located between 3 passes of Prenn, Sacom and Tuyen Lam. The shop is in the process of being repaired, does not serve water, but still allows visitors to freely take photos. The sunlight flooded in making the space here become majestic. Around 8am, some people started coming to check-in, the space became more bustling. The majestic space at The Wilder Nest. Utopia Dalat is a homestay suitable for those who like tranquility. Because of traveling during the holidays, I had to book a room 2 weeks in advance to get a seat. Room rates for 3 days and 2 nights are about 525,000 VND/person. The shop displays many beautiful small stone lotus pots. The hostess is friendly, sponsors the charcoal, the oven for the guests’ barbecue. The plus point of the accommodation is the giant bougainvillea in front of the house, just stepping out the door, you have a lovely picture right away. Around 3pm, we stopped at Bag Mo To. The wooden houses are designed in a vintage style that makes a strong impression. Each glass of water here costs 50,000-60,000 VND. I like the stone lotus house the most with many beautiful potted plants, eye-catching pictures. In the evening, we enjoy wet cake and go for a walk at the central night market. Because of traveling by private car, the group is quite proactive in terms of time. 1/5: Early morning cloud hunting experience mây From 5am, we were at the famous Da Phu hill to hunt clouds and watch the sunrise. You can walk up the hill or rent a car for a round trip of 50,000 VND/person. This thrilling experience like off-road racing is not for the faint of heart. After breakfast, the group bought tickets to visit Puppy Farm. This is a complex consisting of a dog farm, a flower hill, a strawberry garden, a stone lotus… with an airy and pleasant atmosphere. If you don’t like the crowded scene on the banks of Tuyen Lam lake, you can go deeper and stop at Happy Hill. This area is quite large, so tourists spread out to many places. The price of drinking water is about 60,000 VND/cup. Experience early morning cloud hunting in Da Phu and watch Trai Mat light up. In the evening, we went to eat hot pot. Tao Ngo é chicken hotpot is always on the group’s list of places to visit. The meal cost 400,000 VND, a lot of meat, just enough for 6 people. Vu Thi Village Coffee, beautiful view, watching Trai Mat light up, is a suggestion you can refer to. The group also visited the square to drink hot soy milk – a familiar dish chosen by many tourists when coming to Da Lat. The salesman here has a good sense of epidemic prevention, everyone wears a mask. Day 2/5: Da Lat returns to its quietness The next morning, I enlisted to clean up, check out and find a coffee shop when I returned to Ho Chi Minh City, back to busy office work. During 3 days in the foggy city, I had the opportunity to visit many coffee shops, in which, the space in Bo Hem was the most poetic. Perhaps many tourists take advantage of leaving early, so the shop is quite empty. A reasonable schedule is the secret for visitors to have a full experience. Before leaving, we had delicious and cheap broken rice at Ms. Thu’s restaurant 118 on Hai Ba Trung Street. The journey back to Ho Chi Minh City starts at 14:00. The section below the people of Bao Loc pass was still congested, so the friend took a shortcut to Binh Thuan. Great, we got home exactly at 10pm. For me, choosing a destination and schedule when traveling to Da Lat on holidays is quite important. Even in the midst of the “sea of ​​people”, the group still found valuable and unforgettable experiences.

In addition to ordering, many restaurants also serve diners in the form of buffets. When dining like this, you can freely choose the dishes that the restaurant prepares. Therefore, choosing dishes is important, helping you enjoy a variety of foods. For seafood buffet, there are 3 seafood dishes that people in the sea do not choose to enjoy in the first place. The reason is because eating them is easy to fill up, can not comfortably enjoy other dishes. Moreover, they are also quite indigestible, not suitable for eating a lot. Sushi. Sushi is a traditional Japanese dish, made from rice mixed with vinegar combined with fresh meats, fish, seafood and vegetables. Sushi is very diverse, there are many different types, the most typical ones are: Nigirizushi, Chirashizushi, Makimono, Gunkan, Oshizushi, Temaki. Due to the rice ingredient, sushi will make you feel full quickly. Although very delicious, to ensure that you can enjoy a variety of other dishes, you should only eat a moderate amount. If you like the fresh taste of raw seafood, you can choose sashimi as an appetizer. Sashimia are pieces of fresh seafood cut into thin slices about 2.5cm wide, 4cm long and about 1/2cm thick. Japanese people often eat sashimi before a meal to avoid strong-smelling dishes that affect the natural, original flavor of the sashimi. Cheese grilled seafood. Grilled seafood with cheese brings a cool and greasy taste. The dish is very delicious, but the minus point is that the cheese part contains a large amount of calories, causing indigestion, quickly feeling full. Catching this, buffet restaurants often decorate grilled seafood with cheese very eye-catching, arrange conspicuous seafood positions to stimulate customers. Deep-fried seafood. Similar to grilled seafood with cheese, deep-fried seafood makes you feel full very easily. Since then, there is no interest in enjoying other delicacies in the restaurant. Instead of choosing this dish, the longtime chef recommends choosing seafood of the same type, steamed or boiled. The above processing method does not bring the feeling of being greasy because of the oil, while preserving the original sweet aroma of seafood. Photo: Internet.

The prime location that allows to fully enjoy the beach and the changes at all times of the day from dawn, dusk to lights is the biggest emotion leading the architect when designing the project. The entire architecture of the cafe is focused on the sea in order to maximize the views and enhance the beauty of nature in the most vivid way. Balancing the needs of young people, the main target of the shop, and the advantages of the land, the design team has created a variety of seats, where every corner is a different scene, a different sky. The diverse shapes of the doorways are animatedly arranged on a simple block creating pleasing rhythms. Light, shadow, sea surface and green canopies become the main decoration materials of the building. The diverse shapes of the doorways are animatedly arranged on a simple block creating pleasing rhythms. Guests’ emotions are skillfully guided from the porch on the front steps to the windows through the floors and stop at the highest point – where the stairs “connect” between the sky and the sea.

Lach Bang Temple (Hai Thanh Ward, Nghi Son Town). If you are a tourist who likes to wander around the caves and alleys of the sea village, to see and feel the rhythm of life or the beauty of daily life, which is somewhat obscured by the economic life. huh; then Nghi Son peninsula, Ba Lang – Hai Thanh (Nghi Son town), or Trieu Duong village (Sam Son city), Diem Pho (Hau Loc) are interesting suggestions. Life on the Nghi Son peninsula is like a black-and-white film opposite, in the midst of busy and noisy factories and seaports; with one side is the time-stained silence of ancient relics such as Tinh Hai fortress, Ong Ninh citadel or Wash Ngoc well associated with the tragic love story of My Chau – Trong Thuy. Economic development reflects the increasing material life, full and well-off; and parallel with it is the culture or spiritual life – beliefs and spirituality expressed through the cultural heritages that are still respected and preserved by the people here. The “fairyland” has both the needle and the deposition of that ancient spirit, truly precious. Because, it is easy to make people want to slow down a few beats, to see the beautiful scenery and also to let the soul be less in turmoil, when life is full of worries. Not far from Nghi Son is Hai Thanh – a cultural space imbued with maritime nuances. When it comes to Hai Thanh, people often mention the profession of going to the sea or the famous fish sauce making profession with the name Ba Lang. But behind the somewhat hustle and bustle of economic life, is an attractive “fairyland”. Because it’s rare in any estuary land where the livelihood and spiritual life have such harmony. The houses are closely packed with narrow aisles; Boat docks, craft villages, and small markets that seem noisy… strangely “fit” with the quiet, quiet appearance of temples and shrines. In Hai Thanh, there still exists a system of very diverse historical and cultural relics running along the slopes of Do Xuyen mountain and Ba Lang Catholic Church, which is famous for its outstanding architecture and art. Along with that, in the cultural space of Hai Thanh, there is also a treasure of unique intangible cultural heritage, the most prominent of which are typical folk festivals, cultural-historical festivals, such as: Quang Trung festival, Do Xuyen village festival and traditional brush swimming festival. Then, once coming to Hai Thanh for a festival, visitors will partially understand the so-called balance and harmony between the material and spiritual life in the traditional sea village. Between the busy streets and the hustle and bustle of the tourist town of Sam Son, the slow and somewhat calm life of Trieu Duong beach village can be likened to an interesting “variation”. Trieu Duong – the name on the face of the word is the morning water, but its deep meaning is a picture of beautiful, beautiful nature. The historical capital formed the land, so the village was as arduous as the daily life of fishermen facing waves and storms; However, the existence of Trieu Duong village is associated with Sam Son strip to this day, which is the pride of every resident here. The village is famous for cattle weaving, even the fishing net of Trieu Duong residents was once considered the most unique in the North. In particular, there is an opinion that Trieu Duong village keeps the cattle weaving technique a secret, with strict conventions and prohibitions from spreading it out. Normally, only boys in the village were taught the craft, and it wasn’t until 1955 that the technique was widely circulated. Also because of the traditional profession, since ancient times, Trieu Duong village has worshiped Ba Trieu – the ancestor of ox weaving and held Ba Trieu ball procession festival on the 10th day of the second lunar month every year. Trieu Duong village festival, along with many traditional festivals preserved and handed down by Sam Son residents to this day, has contributed to creating the appearance of a Sam Son that is both modern and ancient hidden in its beauty. culture – unique spirit. National Intangible Cultural Heritage of Diem Pho Bridge Festival. Talking about the “fairyland” of Thanh Hoa sea but forgetting to mention Diem Pho is really a big omission. But if you only know Diem Pho in the somewhat irritating scene of houses like wedges and the vibrant rhythm of life on the docks under the boat, it is also somewhat one-sided. Because there is a very different, very peaceful and meaningful Diem Pho of a coastal village imbued with the sea nuances of Thanh’s sea. Looking at the map, Yan Pu is like a funnel to absorb and store the wind. Perhaps also because of that special location, the characteristics of the population and culture of this land are also somewhat different. Because, mentioning Diem Pho is referring to a very special spiritual – spiritual – religious life. For centuries, the people here have been diligently clinging to the sea to find a livelihood and also from the sea, they have created an extremely rich and valuable cultural space, reflected in festivals, beliefs, customs, performing arts and the architecture of temples and pagodas. In particular, the Cau Ngu festival in Diem Pho village – one of the biggest, most profound and sacred festivals of the inhabitants of Hau Loc coastal area in particular, and Thanh Hoa in general. With its great and irreplaceable values, the Diem Pho Cau Ngu festival has been honored as a national intangible cultural heritage. And yet, Diem Pho still has a very unique complex of Nghe – pagoda – palace – shrine. Because the harmony of many types of architecture in a common space has reflected honestly and deeply the very open, unsophisticated view of the residents here on beliefs and religions. The tangible cultural heritages are very specific and rich in value; customs, or forms of religious activities, reflecting the history of formation, the process of existence and social characteristics; system of folk knowledge or rich experience treasures of fishermen… All those elements imbued with marine culture are fully reflected, truthfully, vividly, and conspicuously through these “regions”. “fairy” sea, waiting to be discovered by tourists, through tours to experience marine culture – who knows, will be built in the near future.

Bai Dong (Nghi Son town). The journey along the 102km coastline, from Nga Son to Nghi Son, will bring you countless surprises. Because surely, when it comes to the sea of ​​Thanh, many people only automatically have the shadow of Sam Son with a history of tourism exploitation more than 100 years; or Hai Tien, Hai Hoa has only been known for about 1.2 decades, but has also found a place on the map of marine tourism. However, the sea of ​​Thanh is an extremely diverse and rich population of mountain ranges crashing into the sea, forming coves interspersed with creeks with more majestic natural landscapes. In particular, the process of creation over thousands of years has endowed this land with pristine, peaceful and beautiful beaches. Nestled in the narrow, quiet and isolated sea, Bai Dong (Nghi Son) will be the perfect choice for “believers” who love the deserted seas. The beauty of this beach is the wonderful blend of “one-color heaven” and “thousand-year love relationship” of mountains – waves. The first point is the unruly mountain range that plunges straight into the sea, looking like the tip of a bow embracing East Beach in its lap and creating an impressive highlight for this beach. At the other end is a long streak of rough, smooth, different sizes of rocky snouts, crammed in the middle of a long beach with no end in sight. If viewed from above, Bai Dong is like a painting of nature, with pen strokes that seem to be indifferent and absent-minded, but if you look closely, you will see the meticulous and feats of the “worker” of the painting. . Dawn on the East Beach is a great time for visitors to experience the moment when the sun rises from the seabed and the first rays of sunlight clear away the clouds, wash away the “dust” of the dark night, awaken the green sprouts, call to life for the new day. The slow movement of time is like a natural hourglass, which can only be felt transparently and fully by all the senses, not influenced by any external circumstances and by the whole soul. all worries. However, the beauty of Bai Dong is not only in the moment when “the sun rises in the sea with a new color”; but have to wait when the sun has bestowed abundant energy on all things, then the brilliance of this beach will be full. The sun poured over the golden brown sand and sparkled with crystal as if it wanted to dazzle the eyes. The sun spreads a yellow color full of life on the landscape as if it were a source of inspiration and a desire to blend in with nature. Faced with the endless beauty of the water in the sky, reflecting the boundless blue of the sea, how can people not be moved? In particular, the green color of the unspoiled East Beach is somewhat illusory, making it easy for people to exclaim, as if we have strayed into another space, or are living in a parallel space. real and virtual, where we give ourselves the right to put aside all worries to indulge this living being called “me”. If Bai Dong is the perfect choice for a short vacation, with the desire to recharge for a new working week; then, Tien Trang beach (Quang Xuong) is satisfied for a walk at the end of the day, to drop into the cool water or breathe in the fresh air that belongs only to nature. Tien Trang is an example of the concept of the word “wild”. Here, each gentle wave flows over the long sandy shore. The harmony of the immense water waves mixed with the sound of the casuarinas reverberated in people’s hearts. The feeling of relaxation that cannot be described by words is natural when you pick it up, gently and gently seep into people’s hearts. In particular, the painting of the sea in the evening is like a painting, seemingly evoking dreamlike and magical myths about the human struggle for survival. Watch the sunset on Tien Trang beach to experience the chase, struggle between darkness and light, when the sun is pushed to the west and the waves also run out of enthusiasm to play with the sun and the wind to sink into your heart. deep ocean. And no matter what time of day you come to Tien Trang, as long as you are willing to put aside the hustle and bustle and open your heart to nature, in return, your soul will be like being washed by nature to become relaxed and peaceful. course. And yet, if you want to explore more deserted seas with pristine and majestic scenery, fresh climate, and clear blue sea, then besides Bai Dong, Tien Trang, Thanh land also gives you more choices. choose no less interesting. For example, in Nghi Son town, in addition to Bai Dong, you can explore more beautiful Nghi Son peninsula; Or go to Hai Thanh to soak up the taste of the sea and the taste of the famous Ba Lang fish sauce from far and near. Or if you have discovered all the beauty of the beaches, the unique cultural and natural heritages of Sam Son sea; Visitors can “over-foot” down to Nam Sam Son beach, to feel a different space, different scenery and atmosphere different from the busy, bustling tourist city… Not only beautiful beaches, Thanh sea also has a “warehouse” of precious tourism resources waiting to be discovered: the system of islands. If standing at a high point at the “gateway” of Bai Dong, the naked eye can also see the Me island cluster looming on the sea surface. This cluster of islands is also known by its rather evocative and evocative name, “Tha Bat Ma Son”, with 18 large and small islands, covering an area of ​​​​10km2. Me island cluster is likened to a “marine nature reserve”, with over 400 species of plants, many precious animals residing and more than 100 species of medicinal plants with high medicinal and economic value. In particular, the majestic and unspoiled beauty of Me Island is enough to attract tourists who like to experience the feeling of adventure on steep cliffs, or explore the richness and abundance of the primeval forest. wide. Along with Me island is Ne island located about 6km from Hau Loc coast. Ne Island is a hilly island nearly 900m long, about 400m wide at the widest place. Although it cannot be compared with Me Island in terms of area or grandeur; But the island of Ne possesses the lyrical beauty of nature and long-standing traditional cultural activities, associated with whale worshiping customs of fishermen… It can be said, a storehouse of natural and human resources. rich in value that islands and island clusters possess, which is the basis for the exploitation and development of typical sea-island tourism products such as resort tourism, eco-tourism associated with the discovery of infinite nature. same ideal. The sea – island is beautiful and abundant in tourism resources, which is the basis for Thanh Hoa province to identify that sea – island resort tourism is a key product of the spearhead economic sector. In the future, the deserted seas may be exploited and formed eco-tourism resorts, associated with many types of high-class services such as medical resorts, casinos, boating, fishing, etc. Squid fishing, scuba diving to see corals, water sports… Since then, “upgrade” the tourist market segment and bring visitors more choices, interesting, attractive and worthwhile experiences. remember more.

Hon Bo – Lach Truong spiritual tourism cultural park. However, before knowing Hoang Truong (Hoang Hoa) under the natural and beautiful shape like the early days of the mountains and water, the waves and the wind, the sun and the sand…; This land is famous as a “battleground” – the place where many historical confrontations took place between the Vietnamese Navy and Thanh Hoa’s army and people with warships, “heavenly enemies” of the US imperialists. In order to save the disastrous situation of the “Special War” strategy, in 1964, the US imperialists opened a destructive war to the North, preventing the support of the North’s rear for the Southern battlefield. The US for the 7th Fleet – the air force focused on raiding along from Ne islet (Hau Loc) to Lach Truong mouth (Hoang Hoa). In the face of the enemy’s aggressive behavior, along with the People of the whole country, Hoang Truong People participated in the People’s War which is considered unique in history. In particular, the resounding feat of the Hoang Truong militia veteran platoon with a 12ly7 infantry gun shot down an American plane in 1967, received a letter of praise from Uncle Ho and was conferred the title Hero of the armed forces by the State. People. In that war, each Hoang Truong fisherman became a “living milestone” at sea, both making a living and protecting the sovereignty of the sea and sacred islands. This is indeed a strange war. Because war became a part of life at that time and entered the consciousness of every human being. Then every enemy comes to fight, no matter how big and dangerous they are. Because in the end, “the pride of weapons bowed to the pride of men”! To record that special historical milestone, on December 19, 2015, the Vietnam Navy’s first victory monument was inaugurated. The project is likened to a red sail that stands tall, proud and indomitable against the waves at Lach Truong estuary. The work is a sacred symbol of patriotic tradition, the spirit of self-reliance and national pride, always reminding posterity of our nation’s painful but resilient history. And that, to keep the peace for this strip of land is red blood mixed in sea water. Therefore, pride must be associated with the responsibility of each person for the development of the homeland and the country in the current context. So, if you have a chance to return to Hoang Truong, you should visit the Monument of the First Victory of the Navy and People of Vietnam, to once more feel the heroic and tragic atmosphere of a time of blood and fire. . After a moment of recollection, visitors can open their hearts to receive the echoes of heaven and earth, of mountains and rivers, of waves and waves where the sea mouth is converging on this land of Hoang Truong. The coastline is about 5km long, the Linh Truong mountain range connects from Ngoc Chue mountain (Hoang Yen commune) to the cape of Bo islet and together with Ne and Sup islands, forming a bow shape in front of the sea mouth, like shielding and covering the sea. wrap life in its bosom. Life is hard, but it is kind, simple and very peaceful. Today, the picture of life at the estuary has been painted with more bright colors. In particular, the birth of a unique architectural complex called Hon Bo – Lach Truong cultural and spiritual tourism park right next to the water’s edge, more and more promise of a “color change” of life here. Looking down from above, Linh Truong mountain range looks like a dragon reaching out to the sea, and Bo is the dragon’s head. As for the rocks that eat into the sea, large and small in size and in many different shapes, sparkling like pearls like dragon beards. But when standing independently from the Linh Truong mountain range, Bo islet has the shape of a large cow and this place once appeared in the verse of Trang Trinh Nguyen Binh Khiem: “When will you let her lie down in the field / The cow will graze? He just returned.” Hon Bo is associated with many spiritual stories of fisherman residents and especially, folk traditions say that Bo is a rare white quartz stone block that has the ability to purify bad energy, attract new sources of energy. positive energy and banish evil spirits. Therefore, Hon Bo-Lach Truong Cultural Tourism Spiritual Park is considered a place of convergence and harmony between natural beauty and cultural and spiritual values. At the same time, it is located on a land with a favorable feng shui location: Back leaning against Hon Bo mountain, facing the sea. Built in 2018 and completed some items, the rest is still under construction. Currently, Hon Bo – Lach Truong cultural and spiritual tourism park includes the monuments of the first victory of the Vietnamese Navy and People, the But pagoda, the To Hien Thanh temple, the Mau palace, the Linh house, and the island. Cow, Beard Dragon beach… Although not yet completed, with the existing items, it partly gives visitors an idea of ​​the level of feats and monumental appearance of the whole project. In particular, new works built in the scenic complex have a combination of two architectural styles that have both traditional appearance and modern elements. Typically, the Buddha Pagoda – the most sacred and oldest relic at the mouth of Hoang Truong sea. According to the elderly, the Buddha pagoda dates from the end of the 14th century and the beginning of the 15th century. After several hundred years of existence, it was ravaged by wars, and the pagoda was degraded and seriously damaged. With the desire to restore the temple, and also preserve the Buddhist beliefs in the lives of fishermen here, in 2018 the pagoda was restored and became a “highlight” work in the Cultural Park complex. Spiritual tourism Hon Bo – Lach Truong. Overall, the Buddhist temple is quite bold with Indian architecture, but also has its own characteristics of traditional Vietnamese pagodas. In front of the pagoda is the bell tower, the empty floor and in the middle is the 7m high Tathagata Buddha statue… Perhaps it is because of that “novelty” that has created an attraction for visitors, when recently the Park Park Spiritual tourism culture Hon Bo – Lach Truong has created a “craze” for check-in with many tourists, especially young people. Come back to the charming land of Hoang Truong once to discover the beautiful scenery tinged with mystery and listen to the sea singing the love song of sea life – human life.

Priceless wild beauty Dressed in a dreamlike landscape, Siargao is blessed with an extremely diverse flora and fauna, from vegetables to trees, sea turtles, large fish or non-poisonous jellyfish, not to mention a wide range of species. other terrestrial wildlife. The name of the island is derived from “Sha-gow” – the name of a species of mangrove that is abundant on the island.

Old fisherman Nguyen Thai Son, Hong Thai village (Nghe An) is sad because the fishing ground is increasingly exhausted Sea story, job story Early in the morning, at Lach Con estuary (Quynh Phuong ward, Hoang Mai town, Nghe An), fisherman Ho Van Toan (63 years old, Quyet Tien village, Quynh Phuong ward) allowed the boat to land. From 12 o’clock the previous night, Mr. Toan alone went out to sea and caught more than 1 nautical mile from the river gate. Previously, he specialized in offshore fishing. In recent years, he “retired” at home, sad and sad, and remembered his job, so he bought a small boat of 15 million VND to go to sea. “Buy it for the old man with uncle!”, Mr. Toan chuckled and then began to remove the nets, in fact, scooping up the nets, to find the meager result he just had harvested. Mr. Toan laments: “Now the resources are running out, uncle. The ship pounded, scratched the snail (pull the grease snail), then the net bowl, the electric pulse swept, sweeping from the big to the small one. If you have eggs, you can catch them, you can catch them when they are born, then they won’t have the next generation. I am worried about how I will live on my own because I am old ”. After the trip to the sea, Mr. Tran Van Duc (Thang village, Quang Nham commune, Quang Xuong, Thanh Hoa) sat again knitting cage to fight crab. From March to July, the 8th lunar month, he caught crabs; in the remaining months, they were fishing for mantis shrimp and grouper. Mr. Duc said that before, there were many crabs offshore Thanh Hoa, but now they have to go fishing as far as Quang Ninh, Hai Phong. Mr. Nguyen Van Chung, head of Hai Thinh village (Nghi Thiet commune, Nghi Loc district, Nghe An) said that in the past, the village was isolated from the outside, women were rice farmers, men went to the beach. The village’s fishing grounds come mainly from Mat Island. “The fish in my hometown spawned in February and March of the lunar calendar. In the past, this was a quiet sea for them to breed, but now it is stirred up, mined, scratched, polluted, so the source is becoming more and more exhausted. My hometown beach is beautiful, unspoiled, many visitors love it, but now it’s all gone, ”Mr. Chung sighed. Marine workers are now mostly elderly people, some 70-75 years old still go to sea, while young people take care of other jobs in the four countries. Marine people escaped from the marine profession Every time he mentions the sea profession, Mr. Tran Ngoc Chau (72 years old, living in Thanh Son village, Nghi Son island commune, Nghi Son town, Thanh Hoa) is sad again. The “mantra” of the sea villager “if the sea can, I can” no longer seem to be ineffective. He said: “In the past, I pointed out that Nghi Son Bay had set up a trap and had eaten. As we go out to sea a little bit, we often say happily one day to work a month. But now it’s over!”. Nghi Son island commune in the past 100% of the people work in the sea. People here live and die by the sea, “the nose of the boat is guarded on the side of the house”. In recent years, the sea fishing has faced many difficulties, especially the catch has decreased sharply, so many people do not want to go to the sea, some ship owners have to “sell jobs”, which means selling ships that do not work anymore. With the opening of Nghi Son Economic Zone, many stable job opportunities have attracted seafarers. For example, a young couple works as a worker on average 7 million VND / month / person. This is a stable source of income, while the sea is precarious, when the husband goes out to sea, the wife stays at home “hanging the mast” spiritually. We went back to Dai Dong village (Cuong Gian commune, Nghi Xuan district, Ha Tinh province) to meet Mr. Tran Ngoc Canh, heard him tell him: In the years 1989-1990, Cuong Gian commune had more than 1,000 boats, up to now there are only 300 ships. . Now, there are only people aged 40 and over, even over 70 years old. The whole commune has 2,700 people working abroad. Labor export for high income, each month someone sends 80 – 90 million VND, especially someone sends 120 – 130 million VND. Someone had a “broken” lot, had billions in debt, went out of labor export for 3 years to pay the debt, built a 3-storey house. But there are also people 50 or 60 years old who still have to leave their homeland, some have gone for 20 years and have not returned to their hometown once. Having a family, the wife remembers that the husband had to visit, then went back alone. Now, at the parent meeting, the children can see the grandparents, and the parents are “busy working far away”. Mr. Canh suppressed a sigh: “Everything is due to food and bargain. If the fishing career provides a stable income, no one wants to live away from their wife and children or from home ”. The village is gradually “conquered” Central coastal villages, which are peaceful and pristine, have been gradually “invaded” by tourism projects, economic development; because the debt caused by the marine industry is getting more and more difficult. Hai Thinh village (Nghi Thiet commune, Nghi Loc, Nghe An) is hidden behind the mountains of Chuong Ga, Mang mountain, and Mui Co. In the past, to get into the village, there was only one way, along one side of the mountain and the other by the sea. This place is a peaceful and beautiful place with beaches such as Oyster beach, Chuoi beach, Lang beach … Because of its prime location, wild beauty, this place has attracted a large eco-tourism project. . But, from 2013 up to now, this project is still “stationary”. Mr. Nguyen Van Chung, Head of Hai Thinh Village shook his head in frustration: “If the ecotourism project of Thanh Phat Company (headquarter in Hanoi) was implemented on schedule, our village would not have been encroached on by cement. . The ecotourism project has compensated people for nearly 8 billion VND for site clearance, but for some reason it has not yet implemented. It’s very polluted now ”. The project not only pollutes people but also affects the fishing grounds. Every time you dig and clear the channel, people rake the bottom layer up, dust from cement grinding station, from digging mountains to encroach the sea makes fish and shrimp no habitat. Coming to Tan village (Quang Nham commune, Quang Xuong district, Thanh Hoa), we found many signs with full name and phone number in the empty land. The idea of ​​advertising for selling land, but good research, this is a way for landowners to contact the project owner of the resort when they come to measure. Outside the village, facing the sea, a new breakwater was completed. A group of villagers were drying anchovies, listening to me complimenting the dike for making a beautiful beach. A middle-aged woman said: “It is really beautiful, but I do not know whether to work for people or work for tourism project owners. This embankment has just been invested 100 billion by the State to break waves for Tan village because of wave erosion. But just finished, the owner of the tourism project also entered ”. In 2004, the family of old fisherman Nguyen Van Thuong from Dong village (Quang Nham commune) went to Tan hamlet and was provided with 200m2 of residential land. Before the last New Year’s Eve, when he was fishing at sea, he heard his wife call to announce that people came to measure the land and prepare to relocate. When Tet came, he found out that not only his house but also Tan village had to relocate to make room for a resort tourism project. Mr. Vu Hoang Anh, Secretary and Head of Tan village, said: “In 2001, implementing the migration policy, people in the inner villages of Quang Nham commune went to the wasteland where bordering the Yen river mouth and the sea to live. Up to now, the village has 180 households with over 700 people, 80% of the population working in seafaring. The policy of giving land to ORG Joint Stock Company for the implementation of the urban and tourist project has been popular since 2017. Although the policy has been 4 years, it has not been measured until January 2021. During the 4 years of being “suspended”, people were not allowed to build houses and welfare works. To be honest, we don’t want to go, because here is a large land, life is already stable. If the project is implemented, then deploy it soon, but living like this is so miserable! ”. Mr. Ho Xuan Huong, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Quynh Phuong ward (Hoang Mai town, Nghe An), said: Local authorities, central ministries need to have close coordination to implement the guidelines of the Party and House. on the strategy of marine economic development. For a long time, the policy has been in place, but the implementation to the coastal villages, particularly to each fisherman, is still lackluster. Along with that, it is also necessary to plan, train and form a force of good and modern fishermen, taking on the role of “living milestones” in the middle of the East Sea of ​​the country.
