For a city, we can say that there are many ways to understand it. There are also some cities that we hardly need to understand. As long as we hear its name, we know it, such as Jingdezhen. Regarding Jingdezhen, I believe that there is no need for too many voices to repeat it. As a well-known “Porcelain Capital” at home and abroad, the thousand-year-old porcelain culture burned in ancient kilns here has long been ingrained in the hearts of the world. Because of this, we want to understand the porcelain culture of China for thousands of years, and we will also choose to go to Jingdezhen as soon as possible. In Jingdezhen City, we are most familiar with Jingdezhen Ceramic History Museum, Imperial Kiln Museum, Jingdezhen Museum and Ancient Kiln Folklore. Expo area and so on. In fact, for tourists, every time they travel, they will not be able to check in some scenic spots for some reasons, especially the length of the holiday and traffic problems. It is precisely because of this problem that some scenic spots that were originally worth checking in are helplessly forgotten. The same is true for a place in Jingdezhen. It was originally an inconspicuous small village. It was forgotten by many people because of the remoteness and the inconvenience of transportation. Even so, it has not been forgotten in history. During the Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties, many ancient kiln sites were left in its territory, and among its green mountains and rivers, it became a center of ancient porcelain making. It is the site of an ancient porcelain kiln in Raonan near Raonan Village, Yaoli Town, 55 kilometers northeast of Jingdezhen City. Among the many ancient villages in Jingdezhen, why was the porcelain made in Raonan Village in ancient times? First of all, let’s get to know Raonan Village. It is located between Bajiao Mountain and the valley close to Qishan Mountain. The ancient trees on the mountain are lush, the green bamboos are swaying, and the forests are hidden. The crystal clear Yao River passes through the village, and the ancient village is named after it. Because it is adjacent to southern Anhui, the Huizhou residences in its territory are built on the water and are scattered. It is precisely because of its unique geographical location and natural conditions that its territory contains abundant china clay resources, sufficient water resources and sufficient fuel resources. However, these are the three indispensable conditions for the ancients to make porcelain. , Raonan Village also just met the three conditions. Raonan Village’s ceramic production conditions are unique, and its territory is rich in kaolin, which provides abundant and high-quality raw materials for the production of the “dual formula” tire-making method in Jingdezhen’s porcelain industry. An important place for making porcelain in ancient times, it is also known as the “source of porcelain”. According to historical records, Yaoli first began to make porcelain in the late Southern Song Dynasty. After experiencing the Yuan and Ming dynasties, the Ming Dynasty began to decline in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, spanning more than 300 years, and the prosperous scene of that year also left a rich cultural heritage for future generations. As the earliest ancient village to make porcelain in Yaoli, the ancient kiln site in Raonan Village has also become an important window for us to understand the porcelain culture of Jingdezhen. Today, we come to the ancient porcelain kiln site in Raonan Village. Not only many ancient kiln sites from the Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties are preserved here, but there are also a large number of porcelain relics such as water stubble and ancient ceramic workshops, and they have been successfully selected in my country. Natural and cultural heritage. After entering the scenic spot, walk along the clear East River, and you can hear the sound of “bang, bang, bang…” far away. The closer you get, the louder the sound. When you get closer, you find that it is the sound of water pounding the glaze fruit. . This is also the most primitive process in the ancient craftsmen’s porcelain making process, which is to use the power of nature to produce glaze fruits with water. The quality of kaolin will be higher in this way, and the porcelain will also provide rich and high-quality porcelain. Raw materials. Continue to go forward and walk across a wooden boardwalk to the opposite bank of the Donghe River. Here is the area where the Long Kiln Ruins are distributed. The No. 1 Long Kiln site is a sloped dragon kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty. It was built on a mountain with a total length of 19.2 meters. It is divided into three parts: a fire chamber, a kiln bed and a smoke port. There is a round pavilion less than 50 meters ahead. Surrounded by tea trees, this is the site of No. 2 Long Kiln. According to records, its kiln started in the late Southern Song Dynasty and ended in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. It is one of the oldest porcelain kilns found in Yaoli. A further 30 meters away is the last ancient kiln site here, which is the No. 3 Long kiln site built on the hillside terrain. Its total length is 48.2 meters, the slope is 19.5 degrees, and the kiln bed is 41.7 meters long. With a width of 2 meters, it is the oldest, most intact and longest dragon kiln discovered so far. Although Raonan Village, hidden among the green mountains and green waters, seems to be an inconspicuous small village, the quality of the glazed fruit produced here is excellent, and it is known as “kaolin, Yaoli glaze” and is called “porcelain”. Therefore, the ancient craftsmen in Raonan Village have made porcelain here since ancient times. Many ancient kiln sites have also been left in its territory, which has become an indispensable window for us to understand the thousand-year-old porcelain culture.

The scenic area has green mountains and green waters, rich and diverse biological species, and has many famous landscapes such as “Maiji Misty Rain” and “Xianren Sending Lanterns”. It has been listed since ancient times. It is the first of the eight scenic spots in Qinzhou. The Maijishan Grottoes, built in the post-Qin period of the Sixteen Kingdoms (384-417 AD), were excavated and rebuilt in more than a dozen dynasties of the Northern Wei, Western Wei, Northern Zhou, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties.

In addition to the well-known Maiji Mountain Grottoes at home and abroad, there are also many places of interest in Tianshui City. The ancient residence of the Hu family, which was built in the 36th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1608), is one of them. This residence in the center of Tianshui City was the private residence of Hu Laijin, deputy envoy of the Minister of Justice of Shanxi in the Ming Dynasty, and his son Hu Xin, Shaoqing Department of Taichang Temple. It is also the only existing Ming Dynasty official residence in Gansu. It is known as “Longshang”. The first residential house”. In the summer of 759 AD, Tianshui welcomed one of the most important guests in history-the poet Du Fu. At that time, Du Fu resigned and traveled west with his family members due to the Anshi Rebellion. He lived in Nanguo Temple in Tianshui for more than three months and wrote more than 100 popular poems. This ancient temple was built during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and has therefore become a place for literati and inscriptions to visit, and is known as the “first famous temple in Longyou”. Fuxi is the earliest documented creation god in China. According to ancient records, he invented and created divination and gossip, and he tied ropes into nets to teach people the methods of fishing and hunting. He was regarded as the beginning of the humanities of the Chinese nation. Tianshui, as the birthplace of Fuxi, currently has the largest and best-preserved Ming Dynasty Fuxi Temple complex in the country, known as the “First Temple in China”. Every year on the 16th day of Fuxi’s birthday, Fuxi Temple attracts many domestic and foreign tourists to worship.

In the past, few people cared about these ticks. When going to the islands, entering the sea cliffs in Nha Trang, there are many. It has a brown carapace, not as shiny green as a sea crab, and its green eyes are stretched out to observe. The easiest to identify are the two very large claws, which are means of prey, and also the weapons of the ticks. Then there was a time when my friends went to the island, caught some grilled fish to play, found it delicious, so they introduced it on facebook and immediately became a “specialty”. Some restaurants in Nha Trang have menus with many different dishes: steamed, grilled, stuffed with meat, fried vermicelli… in general, as well as how to cook crabs or crabs. Have you eaten tickle meat yet? That is a difficult question because not all restaurants have exotic dishes? Besides, in addition to the two provinces of Quang Ninh and Khanh Hoa, there are ticks in very small numbers due to hunting in the islands, which are not bred. If you are eaten, you will see the difference compared to the crab. Male ticks have 2 very large females. The flesh of the cockerel is very firm, not crushed by the moon like crabs or crabs. Just eating claws or processing food with claws is enough. The ticks are very hard, so you have to use tongs or hammer to break the shell and then remove the meat. Females also have bricks like crabs, bricks are fat and fat. Because all the delicious things are concentrated in the claws, the body part is small and has little meat. The body of the tick is not beautiful white, often has a green color of sea moss, maybe it is because it eats moss on the cliff? I ate steamed zucchini. The feeling of eating that crab is very delicious and strange. KHUE VIET TRUONG

Embrace the beautiful little arc beach resort, bugalow , but each one is beautiful and decorated with high quality. And the dawn of Bai Xep viewed from the divine window makes anyone want pose crazy figure. If you are bored of taking pictures in your room, go to the beach for a few walks. The sand here is quite large, so you will feel like you are getting a foot massage. In particular, on the beach, sometimes there are rocky niches like a natural bath, you just need to step in and enjoy this very chill feeling, so there is a whole series of cool photos again. Photo: Mai Khanh Huong Photo: Mai Khanh Huong Photo: NHIP In the afternoon, the seaside restaurants display all kinds of fresh seafood. These restaurants are all owned by the people of the fishing village, there are houses far away in the village, when customers order, they bring ingredients to process and then bring to the beach for guests, so sometimes you will have to wait a bit. But you will not feel uncomfortable at all, because the seafood here is extremely fresh and the people are extremely friendly and enthusiastic. Photo: NHIP At night, the scenery of Bai Xep suddenly becomes shimmering, strangely poetic. Starry sky, dark sea, cool breeze and distant murmuring sounds will make you want to go for a walk forever. Restaurants on the beach are very busy, from popular restaurants to fine European-style restaurants close to the beach. Bai Xep now has full services and is always a paradise with super virtual living corners that are rarely found anywhere else, with sea glass “treasures” you can pick up on the sand and especially Friendly smiles of the people here.

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 river that escaped from heaven” Cano Cristal. Cano Cristal (Colombia) The Canõ Cristal is a natural river located in the Sierra de La Macarena National Park, in the La Macarena region (Colombia). It is world famous as the river of five colors, possessing 5 colors: pink, red, yellow, orange and banana green. The Canò Cristal River originates from the 1.7 billion-year-old peak of the Guiana Shield, one of the oldest rocky mountains on the planet. It flows to the south, winding and winding, downhill, 100km downhill. Colombia has a two-season climate, the rainy season and the dry season. During the rainy season, this South American country is soggy. Cano Cristal rolls a torrential, turbid flood, simply a violent stream. But in the dry season, the sun has just turned to make the water recede, it immediately changes its appearance, becoming the most beautiful river on the planet. The dry season in Colombia begins in June and lasts until November. The sun is so intense that the air is on fire. No more silt due to rainwater washing in, Canõ Cristal is clear to the bottom. The entire Canò Cristal riverbed is covered with ancient rocks billions of years old. They are very rich in phosphorus, iron, quartz… suitable for the growth of moss Macarenia clavigera. Macarenia clavigera is a moss endemic to the La Macarena region. It differs from normal aquatic algae in that it changes color according to the intensity of sunlight. When the sun in the dry season is more intense and the water level of Cano Cristal is shallower, they race to change color. Although the same type of moss, each cluster “blooms” a different color. And yet, Macarenia clavigera also changes color randomly. Cano Cristal is always changing its appearance. It is so beautiful that Colombians have to call it “the river that escaped from heaven”. Lac Rose (Senegal) Lac Rose is most gorgeous when it’s sunny. There is no place in the world that is more “fairytale” than Hong Lake – Lac Rose in Cap Vert Peninsula, Senegal. It lies close to the Atlantic Ocean, just a narrow strip of land apart, so close that the waves hit the ocean, salt water has flooded into the lake. True to the name Hong Lake, Lac Rose is bright pink. It stands out in the setting between the green forest and the azure sea. The area of ​​Lac Rose is about 3 square kilometers. The closer to noon, when the temperature reaches 37oC, the sun is fierce and the dry wind is hottest, the more brilliant it is. As in Canò Cristal, the agents responsible for this color are plants. It is the red microalgae Dunaliella salina. Dunaliella salina is one of the common salt-loving microalgae, found all over the world. They possess the ability to synthesize Beta-Carotene, a superior protective organic substance. This substance has the effect of preventing sunburn, increasing the rate of photosynthesis and bringing warm colors. The more sunny it is, the more actively Dunaliella salina produces Beta-Carotene, turning the whole body into a bright pink color like strawberry milk. The water in Lac Rose is 10 times saltier than the Atlantic Ocean. It is the result of receiving water, evaporating, and settling salt year after year. Yuncheng (China) Yuncheng is like a giant paint palette. Similar to Lac Rose, Yuncheng (Shanxi, China) is a salt lake. Different in that, it is divided into compartments, each compartment has a color. Summer has just arrived, the layer of salt-loving microalgae races to produce Beta-Carotene sunscreen. They form a multicolored Yuncheng that looks like a giant paint palette. Of course, Yuncheng did not divide the compartment by himself, but by human intervention. With an area of ​​up to 132 km2, it was soon divided into different large and small fields, convenient for salt harvesting. From about 6,000 years ago, the Han people knew how to take advantage of the salt in the lake bed. In the 6th Century, Yuncheng also acted as a major salt supplier, responsible for a quarter of China’s total salt production. Today, Yuncheng is still one of the important salt producing regions. Since 1980, Yuncheng has turned to salt production according to modern technological lines. Dallol (Ethiopia) Dallol is beautiful but extremely poisonous, lifeless. Dallol is an area of ​​poor water in the Afar Region of Ethiopia. It consists only of small puddles of water, exposed to magical shimmering colors. However, the water here is not really water. If Canõ Cristal, Lac Rose, Yuncheng are living heavens, Dallol is truly hell. All its puddles are concentrated acid, not even bacteria can survive. The temperature in Dallol is extremely hot, always at 40oC, sometimes soaring to 73oC. Beneath these lifeless puddles lies a boiling volcano. Just standing on the ground here for a moment, the soles of the shoes melted. The miracle is that it is in this “gate to hell” that the Afar people find a rich source of life: salt. For thousands of years, Dallol salt has played a role in the livelihood of the Afar people. Every night, when the temperature in “hell’s gate” drops to the lowest, the Afar people light torches to light the way in to get salt. They sell to merchants, earn extra income, improve their dependents on livestock. Grand Prismatic (USA) Grand Prismatic burns the fields, but is still densely populated with microalgae. Grand Prismatic is a hot spring located in Yellowstone National Park, USA. It boils at 70oC, evaporating 2,100 liters of water/min. Although boiling, Grand Prismatic water is full of minerals. It is favorable for many heat-tolerant microalgae to grow. The diameter of the Grand Prismatic is about 110m, with a depth of 50m. Except the center of the lake is too hot, no microalgae can grow, it is dense with micro-organisms. They come in all sorts of hot colors, the most popular being orange and yellow. Like most waters that glow with moss and algae, the Grand Prismatic is just as gorgeous in the summer. The heat of the sun and the boiling of the microbial plant juices produce natural protectors at full capacity. The color of chlorophyll disappears, replaced by bright colors, challenging the burning sun.

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.

So, if we want to taste super cheap and delicious local food, we should go to eat from 6 am, because around 7 am, there will be nothing for breakfast. Or thanks homestay For breakfast, we are free to swim in the sea, take pictures, and then eat and rest. In the afternoon, if you go along the coast, especially when your stomach is hungry because of swimming, you will see a row of grilled goods of local people with fish cakes, ram, grilled skewers … extremely attractive.

The most special is probably the feeling of sleeping at night in a tent, listening to the sound of the waves crashing, the sound of the sea breeze blowing through the ancient eagle trees that have existed for a long time in this place will make you unforgettable.

According to Pentagon French speaker Mike Howard, fragments of the 5B Truong Chinh missile, with a length of more than 30 meters and a weight of 22 tons, is expected to fall back into the atmosphere “around May 9”, at the same time. added that the US Space Command is closely monitoring the missile’s trajectory. Using data from the US military, Space Track predicts fragments of the missile will fall between 1:44 a.m. and 4 a.m. on May 9 (international time). Space Track also noted that because it was impossible to determine the correct time of the fall, locating the falling point of the debris is very difficult, but confirmed that it will continuously update the missile wreck’s location through its website. Chinese Truong Chinh 5B missile. Photo: CNN “Risk is possible, there will be some damage but quite small, not insignificant, but the ability to affect people is extremely small” – astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell of the University Harvard (USA), stated. The European Space Monitoring and Monitoring Agency (EU SST) has predicted a “risk zone” includes “any part of the Earth’s surface, including almost all of the Americas, Africa and Australia. , parts in southern Asia (Japan) and Europe such as Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece “. The extent of the debris’s influence is such a result of the rocket debris’s dizzying rate, even small effects during the fall can dramatically change its trajectory. . “We expect the debris to reappear sometime between May 8 and May 10,” said McDowell. However, as explained by Harvard astrophysicist, the oceans are still the safest place to bet for debris to land, as seas occupy 70% of the Earth’s surface area. China successfully launched the space station’s core module into space with the Truong Chinh 5B rocket, on April 29. Photo: REUTERS Earlier, on May 7, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that most of the debris from the missile would burn when it falls to Earth and is less likely to cause any harm, CNN said. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Uong Van Ban said Beijing is very focused on bringing the rocket’s upper deck back into the atmosphere: “As far as I know, this missile uses a special design. Much of the rocket will be burned and destroyed in the return to atmosphere “. The Beijing government also criticized that the news that the missile unit had fallen out of control and could cause harm was exaggeration by the West. Chinese experts say the situation is nothing to worry about. Fragment of China’s Truong Chinh 5B missile is expected to hit Earth on May 9.

This is one of the steps for the country to complete its mission of setting up its own space station, a key effort in China’s plan to master space, probe the Moon, and even Mars. But instead of falling to a predetermined place in the sea like the rockets before, the central stage of the Truong Chinh 5B boosters began to rotate around the globe in a state of out-of-control, according to CNN. Dropping debris from Chinese missile launches to Earth is not uncommon in China. In May 2020, the core of the first Truong Chinh 5B rocket crashed on Ivory Coast, damaging a number of buildings, luckily causing no injuries.

Fragments from the submarine were found during a search operation. When the submarine of the Indonesian navy carried 53 divers into the Bali Sea during a periodic training exercise, it may have been pulled into the abyss by an invisible but powerful force. Indonesian naval officials suspect an inner wave, known to have occurred in the waters around Bali, could have caused the sinking of the KRI Nanggala 402. (According to Britannian Dictionary: Side Wave) in, a kind of gravity wave that occurs on internal “surfaces” in ocean waters). The KRI Nanggala 402 sank to a depth of 838 meters, far beyond the reach of the rescuers. As the crew members’ personal belongings surfaced and the ship’s oxygen supplies dwindled, officials said there was no possibility of anyone surviving. The question remains: What happened? Many theories have been put forward but the authorities say there is evidence that an underwater wave – which could induce a vertical tensile force below sea level – occurred in the Bali Sea around the time. The submarine disappeared last Wednesday morning. The Lombok Strait between the islands of Bali and Lombok is believed to be famous for its violent underground waves on an almost bi-weekly basis. NASA, the US space regulator, says the combination of strong tidal currents, rough ocean floor and water exchange between two channels – one shallow and one deep – “tends to combine around 14. once a day for exceptionally strong tidal currents. Indonesian naval officials believe this natural phenomenon is more likely to be the explanation for the submarine disaster than other theories have been put forward in recent days. The waves inside are barely discernible on the ocean’s surface, but underwater, they can reach towering heights. The waves inside can look like ripples on the ocean’s surface, like this satellite image taken by NASA in 2013. (Wikimedia Commons: NASA) Rear Admiral Muhammad Ali, former commander of the KRI Nanggala 402, and now the Indonesian navy planning and budgeting assistant, said an internal wave was essentially “a strong electric current that can pull a submarine. vertically so it will sink faster than usual. ” “Our suspicions were directed towards natural conditions. Because an undercurrent appeared at that time in the north of Bali,” he told Indonesian media. Naval officials said images from Japan’s Himawari 8 satellite, as well as Europe’s Sentinel satellite, showed massive underwater waves coinciding with the sinking of the KRI Nanggala 402. . “It moves from the bottom to the north and there is a groove between the two waves,” said Rear Adm. Iwan Isnurwanto, Commander of the Indonesian Navy Command and General Staff School. “The wave speed is about two knots and the amount of water is about two to four million cubic liters.” Admiral Iwan explained that an inner wave could render the crew powerless in the face of nature. “Once the water swept along and pushed the ship down, what else could we do? There is no safety measure that can fix that.” Other theories about what happened to the submarine have also emerged. Some suggested that this submarine was hit by a missile from a foreign ship, or even lost power. But naval officials said the submarine was still trackable when it began diving for torpedo drills and “the lights were on” – meaning there was only a small chance of power outages. They also denied that the ship was overloaded, a theory that had 53 crew members on board but only 34 beds, instead arguing that the crew was divided into three shifts and took turns sleeping. “The submarine was originally for 33 staff members, then modernized to meet our need to have 50 staff on board,” said Admiral Iwan. Officials said the submarine was also designed to carry eight torpedoes – weighing about a ton each – but only four at the time of the disaster. Many other experts point out that metal fatigue due to cracking or corrosion and that the age of the parts is the more likely cause. KRI Nanggala 402 was built in 1978 and last overhauled in 2012, almost a decade ago.

Fish soup with dragon tongue – a specialty of Duc Pho waters. Photo: THIEN DI The ingredients are available, just boil the water and add the fish to a few slices of fresh chili to remove the fishy smell. When the fish is just cooked, put the long tongue on the island. A few minutes later, season with a little more delicious fish sauce, monosodium glutamate and eat with some cilantro. So, there was a fish soup cooked with a wild, sweet and cool tongue.

Mrs. Ut shared: “My children live and work in Canada, but each year they return to their homeland. This dragon blade garden I plant so that every time it comes back, I cook fish soup with dragon tongue. When he was bored with fish soup, Duc Pho people chose to cook fish soup, but more specifically, fish porridge had to be eaten with bread roll. Like all other types of fish porridge, the fish are boiled and removed from the bones, leaving only the white flesh. The fish meat is lightly oiled, then seasoned to taste. Fish bones are finely crushed, filtered for water, and then cooked in porridge with fish broth. Porridge cooked, add meat and fish to be finished. “But bread roll, it must be the type of bread that is coated in the bakery only in Pho Khanh or Pho Cuong,” said Pham Kim Oanh, from Pho Khanh commune.

The KRI Nanggala-402 submarine sinking tragedy of Indonesia, making the entire crew and commanding officers, in fact completely avoidable, if the country’s naval forces pay more attention to safety standards. ship operation. As a 40-year-old submarine, Indonesia’s KRI Nanggala-402 is likely to have had problems with improper maintenance. However, it is likely that this ship will not be salvaged, and the cause of the incident will forever be unraveled. There have been many similar submarine tragedies in the past, but the causes of these incidents are often unknown due to being classified as a state secret, or simply by submarines. was broken, it was impossible to determine the exact cause. In 2017, the ARA San Juan submarine of the Argentine Navy sank during a patrol off the waters of the country. The ship sank with all 44 crew on board, and all initial search attempts were unsuccessful. It was not until a year later that the San Juan was found in the South Atlantic. The reason for the shipwreck was simply described as “technical error”, the long search and the ship lying at a depth of up to 900 meters, which caused the ship to be completely destroyed. China also had a similar tragedy in 2003, when its diesel-electric submarine, number 361, sank with 70 crew members. The cause of the incident was not disclosed much by the Chinese media, some sources said that the submarine was functioning well, a fault in the ventilation system, causing the entire crew to suffocate. Due to the loss of the crew’s control, submarine 361, with all the crew and commanding officers, crashed into the sea floor. However, the official cause of the incident has never been made public by China. The most horrifying submarine tragedy in history, and best known, is that of the nuclear submarine Kursk, which occurred in August 2000. The Kursk nuclear submarine sank off the Barent waters, killing 118 crew and commanding officers. Russia then salvaged this submarine ashore, to find out the exact cause of the incident. Based on Russian evidence found after the Kursk was salvaged, it has been determined that 23 Russian sailors are still alive in the escape compartment after the bow explosion occurred. However, the Russian side, partly incapable of rescue, partly subjective, said that no one survived, so decided not to organize the rescue of people, but only tried to salvage the ship from the beginning. . Many comments also said that the Kursk submarine has a lot of military secrets, so the Russian side does not want to ask the West to participate in the process of rescuing people still trapped in the ship. Russia itself, knowing that there are still survivors inside the ship, does not have enough access to equipment, the only way is to ask the Western assistance. Another tragedy involving submarines built in the Soviet Union, which occurred in 1989, was the K-278 Komsomolets. Soviet nuclear submarines sank off the coast of Norway, still emitting extremely dangerous radioactivity. Unlike the aforementioned tragedies, the K-278 was in trouble due to the poorly operated crew of the ship, the ship was burnt in time and surfaced to evacuate, before sinking completely into the seabed. However, 42 out of 69 crew members died, of which most died from hypothermia after hours of soaking in the cold sea water, while others were killed by sinking with the ship in an attempt to save. living ship is sinking. Another terrible submarine accident involved the Soviet Union, the K-8 submarine tragedy that occurred on April 8, 1970. The K-8 submarine had a problem with 52 crew members on board, all killed. Initially, the K-8, after the incident, was able to float to the sea surface, the entire crew safely escaped. Then the tug of the Soviet Navy appeared, trying to tow the submarine back to the port. During the towing process, all 52 crew members returned to the submarine, into the operational position. On the way back to port, the K-8 submarine sank with all crew members, killing 52 people. The incident took place in the waters of Biscay. Photo source: BI. The Komsomolets submarines of the Soviet Navy are still emitting radioactivity in the seabed off the coast of Norway. Source: RT.

The coral reefs in Con Dao waters have been recovered after the “catastrophe”. RECOVERY 7 TYPES OF MARRIES Con Dao sea area is considered to be the place with the highest marine biodiversity in Vietnam with coral reefs playing an important role. However, since 1997, the coral in Con Dao sea has developed slowly, in many places, the coral has died and bleached. Therefore, the Provincial People’s Committee “ordered” Con Dao National Park and Institute of Oceanography project “Selection of applied models of hard coral restoration in ramsar area of ​​Con Dao National Park”. Associate Professor – Dr. Vo Si Tuan, Former Director of Institute of Oceanography (Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa Province) – project manager, said that the coral reef restoration was done in 3 areas: Dat Doc, Southwest of Hon Tai (recovered on natural bottoms) and Bai Cat (restored on artificial bottoms). Rehabilitation activities include: assessment of current conditions, removal and fixation of corals, and monitoring of survival and growth (conducted 5 turns over a 2 year period). Accordingly, there are 7 types of corals belonging to 3 varieties: Acopora, Montipora and Pocillopora selected to be restored in the waters of Con Dao. In addition, some types with beautiful shapes and colors such as Echinophyllia echinoporoides, Oxypora glabra, Echinophyllia cehinoporoides were also tested to create diverse habitats for ecotourism. In the coral restoration area on the artificial bottom, the scientists split the pieces and then fixed the corals to 150 dome-shaped concrete tanks. In areas with natural bottoms to ensure good coral growth, scientists make direct fixings on dead corals by wire or drawstring. To make sure, the group used a 35cm iron pole or 10cm steel nail mounted on the dead coral foundation as a support. Talking about the project implementation process, Associate Professor, Dr. Vo Si Tuan said that the project team of up to 20 people (including scientists from Nha Trang, Con Dao National Park staff and fishermen) is not concerned. day and night, wind waves to work both on the sea and under the ocean. In particular, the hardest thing is to bring 150 dome-shaped concrete tanks of 100x60cm size to the sea. After being manufactured in Con Dao, these 150 tanks were implemented by the team implementing the project to rent a crane to Ben Dam port. From here, it takes 25 more boat trips to transport these concrete tanks to Hon Bay Canh. Dozens of healthy fishermen were mobilized to bring the concrete tub to Cat Lon beach (Hon Bay Canh) and put it in the right position (distance from 0.5-1m). According to Mr. Tran Dinh Hue, Deputy Director of Con Dao National Park, the agency in charge of the project, said that he has accompanied the scientists of the Institute of Oceanography during 2 years of implementing the project. The project is carried out entirely on the sea, under the ocean, so it is very difficult, depends a lot on weather factors. “Sometimes, when we are implementing the work, the weather is unfavorable, the waves are strong, the wind is strong, we have to stay 10 days before we can continue to deploy”, Mr. Hue said. SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT After 2 years (from October 2018 to September 2020), implementing an experimental coral restoration in Con Dao waters showed that corals have recovered well. Specifically, according to a detailed assessment of the current status of the bottom of the coral restoration area in September 2020, it shows that the amount of coral has been significantly improved through the coverage data of living corals. Accordingly, in Bai Cat Lon area, the coverage of hard corals varies from 0-13.1%. Hon Tai area The coverage of hard corals increased from 3.8% to 13.1%. Similarly for the Dat Doc area the coverage of hard corals increased from 0.6% to 10%. Thus, after 2 years of restoring corals, coverage of average hard corals at the three recovery points increased from 1.5 to 12% with the number of more than 4,400 coral groups restored on the natural bottom and 1,600 coral groups have been restored on the man-made reef. Mr. Nguyen Cong Danh, Director of the Department of Science and Technology, said the project “Selecting an application model for recovery of hard corals in the ramsar area of ​​Con Dao National Park” is an experimental project of great significance to the province and country. In particular, coral rehabilitation and development for the Con Dao ramsar area has achieved the main goal of improving coral reefs by increasing coral cover, increasing the cost of sustainable attachment for corals. restore and create a stable environment for the development of the coral reef biomes. From there, contributing to biodiversity conservation and restoration of natural resources, improving the quality of the ecosystem.

The Indonesian navy KRI Nanggala-402 went missing on Wednesday. Alex Widojo / Anadolu Agency / Getty Images The search for a missing Indonesian Navy submarine has been going on for days, and time is running out, hopes seem to have faded. “The submarines are designed to be hard to detect, this is a problem that can happen when one sinks,” said Bryan Clark, a former US Navy submarine officer. Submarines are built to penetrate enemy waters, engage and engage enemy navies, shoot at ground targets with cruise and ballistic missiles, and even deliver force. amount secretly entering enemy territory / territorial waters. Not all submarines can perform every task, but regardless of the mission and the ship’s capabilities, stealth is considered to be of primary importance. The KRI Nanggala-402 is a German-made diesel-electric attack submarine that is more than 40 years old. Due to the age of the submarine, it may lack the coating and stealth features of newer ships, even after being refurbished in 2012, giving search and rescue teams a bit of an edge. as they try to look for it, but other challenges will overwhelm any potential advantage. In the event of an emergency, the submarine can either trigger a “ping” device on the ship or send a buoy to monitor (if the Indonesian submarine has these systems and the systems are in operation as well. the submarine crew knew how to use them and did not lose their ability to act). A “ping” signaling device is extremely valuable because it allows search and rescue teams to use passive sonar to scan a larger ocean area with other tools. There is no indication that KRI Nanggala-402 is making a sound that would aid with the search. Mr. Clark, a defense expert at the US Hudson Institute, speculates that if the ship makes a sound, it may have been located. “If it makes a sound no matter what form it is, it will be much easier to find,” he said. Without a ping or other type of noise, search and rescue teams are limited to using active sonar, narrowing the scanning range and prolonging the time it takes to search for a site. field. While passive sonar involves listening to sounds coming from objects in the ocean, sonar actively emit pings and then listens for echoes from objects in the ocean. The Indonesian navy identified the submarine disappeared in the waters north of Bali island. Search teams soon noticed oil slicks in their search area, narrowing the scope of interest. In this common area, search units found an object with “strong magnetic resonance” that could be emitted from the missing submarine. While these developments have significantly reduced the overall size of the search area, there is still a lot to consider. Indonesia has dozens of ships and aircraft, supported by international forces participating in the search. The Indonesian navy said the ship may have sunk at a depth of more than 600 meters, which would certainly complicate the search. Not only does that depth exceed the maximum depth of the ship, potentially putting the hull in danger of rupture, but it could also leave it out of the reach of existing recovery options. Finding things on the ocean floor is also quite difficult, Mr. Clark said. “Like we’ve seen with so many airline crashes, it’s hard to find something, even big, when it falls to the sea floor, because it’s mixed up in the mess down there,” he said. The ARA San Juan submarine of the Argentine navy went missing in 2017. It wasn’t until a year later that search teams found the ship, 44 crew members killed, on the ocean floor at a depth of about 1,000m. “If a diesel submarine as small as an Indonesian submarine sinks more than 600 meters, it is unlikely to survive,” Clark said.

(Photo: AFP / VNA) The Pentagon on April 23 said US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin offered to provide his Indonesian counterpart Prabowo Subianto with underground weapons to assist in the search for a lost Indonesian submarine. The Pentagon statement emphasized: “Defense Minister Lloyd Austin this morning discussed with Indonesian Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto to express concerns about the disappearance of the Indonesian submarine KRI Nanggala 402 as well as the fragile division of the 53 crew members on board. ” The Pentagon also noted that the two sides had discussed the recent deployment of the P-8 Poseidon to aid the search. Minister Austin has proposed to increase support, possibly including the provision of underwater search assets, for this effort. Show the army Indonesia deployed two naval submarines capable of detecting submarines to assist with the search. The KRI Nanggala 402 was suspected of having a total power outage while still diving in the Balinese waters on the morning of April 21 before sinking at a depth of 600-700 meters./.

Recently, sea mushrooms are actively sold in the market or on the “internet market”, many women are curious to buy and enjoy. Selling sea mushrooms for more than two years, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy Hang in Le Trong Tan (Thanh Xuan, Hanoi) shared, she specializes in wholesaling for restaurants, pubs in Hanoi and some neighboring provinces, each days they take from 10-20kg. She only kept about ten pounds for retail sale. Calculated, she sells a few weights a day. Ms. Hang said that she collects sea mushrooms from fishermen in the fishing area of ​​Nam Dinh, Thanh Hoa or some provinces in the South, … This type of seafood has a taste of the sea. Crunchy, sweet and fragrant like eating squid tail, very suitable for drinking dishes such as salad, grilled or for dipping hot pot. Sea mushrooms are specialties that forget to fishermen, but are quite new to the people of Hanoi Sea mushrooms have stripe skin on the outside is dark brown, the flesh inside is white, when imported, have been prepared clean. Before processing, just squeeze a little salt and wash it, then slice and stir fry like stir-fry beef. Stir-fried basil with sea mushrooms is considered a specialty and is popular with many people. The retail price of variable mushrooms is 220,000 VND / kg, while the wholesale price is from 5-10 kg at 165,000 VND / kg. Guests must book 1-2 days in advance to get them, because the goods depend on the number of people caught. Sometimes, Ms. Hang had to collect a few days to have enough goods for delivery. Ms. Le Thuy Duong – a wholesaler of seafood at Nga Tu So intersection (Dong Da, Hanoi) – also said that she is preparing for the summer so she sells a lot of sea mushrooms to restaurants, pubs and sidewalk bars. Some days about a few dozen pounds, wholesalers have cleaned up, no excess weight left. Last summer, she was selling sea buckthorn every day but still had to make appointments for her customers to wait for her next trip because of overload. “I sell for 120,000 VND / kg. Normally, customers buy less than 2-3kg, buy more 4-5kg to freeze to eat gradually ”, she said. Women who buy them often process dishes such as: fried sea mushrooms with basil, grilled sea mushrooms, sea mushrooms, or used to make salads as a drink for their husbands or for guests. However, sea mushrooms should only be refrigerated for 3-4 days to ensure freshness and retain nutrients. Ideally, no matter how much you eat, you can buy it, Ms. Duong said. Many people enjoy this sea mushroom dish One day, a small trader can sell weights of sea mushrooms Mr. Tran Van Binh – a clue selling sea mushrooms in Khanh Hoa – explained, the name of sea mushrooms has existed since ancient times, only one type of seafood is very familiar in the sea, not a mushroom as many people mistakenly think. Mushrooms are harvested naturally, available all year round, so the source is quite plentiful. However, when the sea is rough, stormy and stormy, the exploitation is difficult, so the goods will not be able to return. After being caught, the sea mushrooms are preliminarily processed and then frozen and transported to other provinces, thus ensuring their freshness. Anh Binh is selling this type of seafood for 185,000 VND / kg. When she first heard about sea mushrooms, Mrs. Le Thi Lan Anh from Duy Tan (Cau Giay, Hanoi) was quite curious. At first, she thought it was a common edible mushroom growing in the sea, but when she knew it was seafood, even a specialty of the sea, she immediately bought 2kg to cook. She made stir-fried sea mushrooms with basil, chili, and garlic, according to the seller, and was crunchy, fragrant and strange. Her whole family ate all but still craved. “I researched and found that sea mushrooms contain many healthy nutrients,” she said. On culinary groups, women also compete to show off grilled, fried or salad dishes, … from sea mushrooms. People also share the way to cook and cook this mushroom for the best, and warn those with seafood allergies to be careful before eating mushrooms.

KRI Nanggala 402 submarine Therefore, the focus of current attention will be to salvage the ship’s wreck from the waters off the coast of Bali, Indonesia. Previously, the Chief of the Indonesian Navy Yudo Margono said on April 23 that the country’s rescue team discovered an object with “high magnetism” floating at a depth of 50 to 100 meters off the north coast. Bali island, near where submarine KRI Nanggala 402 was identified lost contact. They are preparing to deploy naval ships equipped with hydroacoustic systems to the area, to confirm whether this is an object from this submarine or not. After the KRI Nanggala 402 went missing, the navy of Singapore and Malaysia sent warships to join the search, while a series of other countries such as the US, Australia, Germany, France, Russia, India, Turkey Ky and South Korea also offered assistance. Information from the TNI military website said that the missing KRI Nanggala 402 submarine was built in Germany and put into service with the Indonesian navy since 1981. This ship has undergone a two-year refurbishment process. Korea and completed in 2012.

Yudo Margono, the naval chief of staff, told reporters that authorities had found an object with “high magnetic force” floating at a depth of 50 to 100 meters. Authorities hope the object could be the missing submarine and are currently waiting for a naval ship with underwater detection facilities to help them investigate the object further. The Indonesian military has so far declined to comment on whether the decades-old submarine, carrying 53 crew, is overpowered. Submarine KRI Nanggala-402 – Photo: Reuters However, they said the submarine may have sank to great depths after a power outage left the crew unable to control the ship. If the object is found to be part of the submarine, the navy suspects the crew may have discharged its fuel load after a power outage to allow the submarine to float. Navy officials feared the submarine might explode. Collin Koh, a naval expert and research fellow at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore, said damage to the fuel tank could cause “big trouble”. Naval spokesperson Julius Widjojono previously told KompasTV that a battery-powered submarine when submerged could only maintain a depth of 250 to 500 meters. “Anything that makes it go deeper than that can be fatal and dangerous,” he said. The waters in the region are shallower than in other parts of the archipelago but can still reach depths of more than 1,500 meters.

Ballarat, one of two warships dispatched by Australia to assist in the search for the missing Indonesian submarine. Photo: Australian Department of Defense It is expected that the Ballarat warships of the Australian Navy equipped with sonic radar and multi-role helicopters MH-60R will arrive in the search area on April 23. The second ship, Sirius, operating in the area off the coast of Brunei will arrive on April 27. In particular, according to the Australian Department of Defense, Sirius can provide fuel, drinking water and many essentials for ships participating in the search. Australia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced earlier that it would do whatever it could to assist Indonesia in finding the submarine in distress. Meanwhile, the country’s Defense Ministry confirmed that it would keep close contact with Indonesia in case it could provide additional assistance to the search. Submarine KRI Nanggala-402 of the Indonesian Navy, along with its crew of 53, went missing on April 21 while participating in a torpedo launch exercise. The Indonesian army, along with the help of the navy, of some countries are working all out to find the ship in distress in the context that the amount of oxygen used on the ship is only enough until the morning of April 24.

Indonesian officials fear the ship may sink deeply, making it difficult to access rescue equipment. In a statement released on April 22, President Joko Widodo called on the people of Indonesia to pray that the crew can return safely. He also ordered all-out use to locate the submarine in distress. More than 20 naval ships, two submarines, five aircraft were mobilized to participate in the search campaign. Lifeboats from Singapore and Malaysia have also arrived on the scene to provide assistance. “Our main priority is the safety of the 53 crew members” Mr. Widodo stressed. Indonesia races against time to rescue the KRI Nanggala-402 submarine. (Photo: Anadolu) Naval Chief of Staff Adm Yudo Margono said, KRI Nanggala 402 is expected to run out of oxygen at 3 am on April 24. Searches are currently concentrated around the oil slick found next to the last dive site of KRI Nanggala 402. But there is currently no evidence that the oil stain was left by a submarine. Margono said the oil could spill from a crack in the fuel tank or the crew could discharge fuel to reduce the weight to help the vessel float. The Indonesian rescue team also found an unidentified highly magnetic object located at a depth of 50-100 m. Officials of this country hope it is the lost ship. However, the Indonesian navy did not rule out the possibility that KRI Nanggala 402 had sunk at a depth of 600-700 m. This depth could crush the ship due to the water pressure. The cause of the disappearance is still unknown. Indonesian officials said the power outage may have prevented the submarine from going through the emergency procedures to float again. In addition to the lifeboats sent to Singapore and Malaysia, Australia, the US, Germany, France, Russia, India, Turkey and South Korea are offering to help Indonesia. Submarine accidents are often catastrophic. In 2000, the Russian nuclear submarine Kursk exploded and sank during a maneuver in the Barents Sea. Most of the 118 crewmembers died immediately, but 23 escaped into the rear compartment before dying because the Russian navy could not find them in time. In November 2017, an Argentine submarine carrying 44 crew members went missing in the South Atlantic. Nearly a year later, the ship’s wreck was found at a depth of 800 meters. But in 2005, a group of seven sailors aboard a small Russian submarine were rescued almost three days after their ship was hooked to a cable at a depth of 190 meters. By the time the cable was cut and surfaced, the amount of oxygen on board was only about six hours. The Indonesian Ministry of Defense said that the German-made diesel-powered KRI Nanggala 402 entered naval service in 1981. The ship carried 49 sailors, one commander and three gunners when it went missing.

Super typhoon Surigae shot from Japanese satellite Himawari 8 at 8am on April 18. The strongest wind of a super typhoon reaches level 17 (200-220 km / h), jerking above level 17. Himawari 8 satellite recorded super typhoon activity in the last 4 hours. Himawari 8 is a Geostatic Weather Satellite (single-position fixed observation) operated by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA). This satellite, built by Mitsubishi Electric with the assistance of Boeing, was launched into orbit on October 7, 2014 with a cost of manufacturing about 800 million USD. Users can track images from satellite Himawari 8 via website himawari8.nict.go.jp. It is expected that by the evening of April 18, the super typhoon center is about 380 km east of the central coast of the Philippines. Wind power is unchanged from before. Super storm images updated live on website zoom.earth. This page synthesizes images from Himawari 8 satellite, X GOES data and Meteosat satellite chain. Super storm image at 8:20 am April 18. It is forecast that by the evening of April 19, the super typhoon center is about 280 km southeast of the central coast of the Philippines. The wind power now drops to level 16, recoil above level 17. The direction of super typhoon Surigae on windy.com. Users can download the application on the smartphone to monitor live weather, storms, if any. Image from satellite SAT24 shows the super typhoon about 400 km from the central Philippines. This is the first super typhoon this year to form in the Pacific Northwest. Experts say that even without going to the mainland, the super typhoon appeared in the area at this time is quite early.

With the People’s Committee of Da Nang City in principle agreeing to the Vietnam Maritime Administration (Ministry of Transport) to research, survey and implement procedures for submerging 200,000 m3 of material in the sea of ​​Da Nang, experts say. There is a need for a careful assessment of the environmental impact (EIA).

Danang’s marine ecosystem is in decline

Associate Professor-Dr. Vo Van Minh, Chairman of the Council of Da Nang Pedagogical University, said that if there is no other dumping site, there is only way to sink into the sea. However, where to sink, in EIA techniques, it is necessary to determine which sea is the safest, least damaging to the environment.

“Currently, the waters of Danang are not included in the group of protected areas, so it can be submerged. However, from an environmental perspective, falling there will certainly affect immediately, especially coral reefs and seagrass areas. These areas are very important for their habitat and breeding grounds for marine life. Surely it will disturb the environment, affect species of marine fauna and flora “- Mr. Minh said.

Mr. Minh emphasized that in the EIA technique, it is only said to minimize to the lowest level, in the permitted level, not say that it is not impacting. Da Nang’s marine ecosystem is in decline, especially the coral system due to poor conservation, tourism and wastewater impacts.

“I want the EIAs to consult with scientists, but if they do not do well, it is dangerous for the environment” – Mr. Minh worried.

According to Dr. Nguyen Tac An, former Director of Nha Trang Institute of Oceanography, in order to carefully analyze the EIA capacity of submerging, it is necessary to understand the dredging method and the submerged technique. It can be said that all the material in the sea when lying still is okay, but when touched and bounced, many problems occurred. Therefore, it is okay to say just taking this place and leaving that place.

Mr. An said that the submergence principle must stay away from sensitive areas such as residential areas, fishing grounds, protected areas and special values ​​of the sea. In addition, when submerged, it is necessary to avoid seas with strong motivations.

“Actually we dumped it, but it will run away. Submerging techniques must be very attentive. Must see if the quality of sediment and chemicals in the area we scraped up is toxic or not. This EIA agency is aware of both. The dynamic maps in Vietnam nowadays all have them. Therefore, when pouring, it must be considered and calculated. The EIA agency will have to take physical samples for testing, calculate the propagation pattern, size, dredging and dredging time “- Mr. An noted.

Mr. An emphasized: Dredging the sea channel is very important for economic development. Dredging cannot be helped. However, how to minimize the impact of the dredger to increase the overall economic value.

Experts believe that when evaluating the EIA, it is necessary to determine which sea area is safe, with the least damage to the environment. Photo: LE PHI

Worry about coral reefs

Talking about the material submerged in Da Nang sea, Dr. Nguyen Thi Minh Phuong, Dean of the Faculty of Environment – Chemical Technology (Duy Tan University), assessed that 200,000 m3 of material is much and will definitely affect the system. marine ecology.

“The affirmation is always going to impact the ecosystem. When we poured like that, we thought it would lie there, but in fact it was not there at all, it had extremely large currents, so it would be swept away. Must see under that sea there are corals or not, because the most fear is the influence of the coral. When pouring like that, the coral cannot withstand the mud, when the water is too turbid, the symbiotic algae of the coral dies and makes the entire coral carpet die “- Ms. Phuong said.

Ms. Phuong further analyzed the great possibility that the sea area is expected to be submerged deep enough that there are no live corals. Most worrying, however, is that the currents will sweep matter around. Especially sediments, if heavy sediments will be deposited, and fine-grained sediments will be swept away.

“Saying a 100-hectare sea area, it will actually wash away very far. The sediment in the dredging site is likely to be fine-grained, not coarse-grained sediment. Fine means it is light, can be washed away, coarse grain is deposited in place and moves slowly. In a period of a few years it will be swept away everywhere and swept seasonally, because the flow changes with the seasons. Wherever the flow is, the coral will die there. The symbiotic algae of the coral needs light, the coral ecosystem is extremely important. And the bottom ecosystem will be temporarily destroyed for a while, then recover “- Ms. Phuong said.

Ms. Phuong added that from a management perspective, any project will have an impact on the environment. If you consider the environmental impact less than the likelihood of economic development, that’s okay, it’s worth the tradeoff.

“Also saying no effect is not right. The impact at sea is difficult to control. If other ecosystems can recover over time, the corals will not, die will die ”- Ms. Phuong affirmed.

177 species of corals around Son Tra peninsula From 2016 to 2018, the Southern Institute of Ecology had the topic “Research on conservation and biodiversity restoration of terrestrial and underwater ecosystems in Son Tra Nature Reserve”. After nearly three years of restoration, the live coral cover increased by more than 10% compared to baseline. There is an increase in organisms living in the reef. The coverage of seagrass beds increases about 20% -30%. According to research by the Southern Institute of Ecology in 2019, the sea surrounding Son Tra peninsula has 177 species of coral belonging to 17 families and 52 varieties. There are also 130 species of fish living in coral reefs, belonging to 32 families and 65 varieties. This sea also has three species of seagrass distributed over a total area of ​​1 ha and 108 species of extremely diverse seaweed. However, the marine ecosystem here is seriously degraded.

Because Tonglu is located in the “three rivers and two lakes” Xin’an River, Fuchun River and Qiantang River, West Lake and Qiandao Lake in the prime location, the profound culture and quiet and beautiful scenery also make Tonglu known as the “Chinese Painting City”. The Fuchun River is located in the middle reaches of the Qiantang River. The section of the Qiantang River that flows eastward from Fuyang to Tonglu is the Fuchun River. The Fuchun River is 110 kilometers long. With the stalwart shore of the mountains, the momentum of the stone, and the charm of the water, the beauty of the forest, the green hills and the turquoise rivers interweave each other to form a Chinese Zen-like landscape painting. Such a poetic and picturesque scenery is naturally indispensable for the footprints of literati. “The world’s beautiful landscapes, ancient and modern push Fuchun.” Wu Huan in the Yuan Dynasty praised the beauty of Fuchun River with these words. “It’s not the Li River, it’s better than the Li River.” This is today’s evaluation of the Fuchun River, and it is called the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and the Lijiang River in Guilin as the three most famous river scenic tours in my country. There are not only beautiful natural scenery, but also rich historical allusions.

Ziling Gorge, Zixu Gorge and Longmen Gorge are collectively called the “Fuchun River Small Three Gorges”. The Small Three Gorges of the Fuchun River is the most beautiful section on the Fuchun River. With a total length of 24 kilometers, the river is as green as a jade, flowing like a green brocade. Longmen Gorge runs from Qililongkou to Yanziling Fishing Platform. The mountains in the Gorge are high and deep, the peaks are facing each other, the river surface is stretched, and the water is gentle. Ziling Gorge is the deepest and most beautiful gorge in the Small Three Gorges of Fuchun River, with the longest tour route. The two mountains in the gorge rise from the water and the cliffs on both sides of the gorge. Zixu Gorge is 8 kilometers long from Zixudu to Sanjiangkou. It was named after Wu Zixu ferryed here during the Spring and Autumn Period. The river here is deep and tortuous, the ancient trees on the mountains are tall and straight, the green bamboos are slender, the mountains are filled with water, and the water overflows with beauty.

There are green mountains and green waters on both sides of the Fuchun River, roaming in this naturally constructed world, it is enough to feel the wonderful metaphor of “you want to visit the small Three Gorges without visiting the Yangtze River” in the small Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. Leaving aside the historical and cultural heritage, just talk about the beauty of the Fuchun River’s landscape and beauty. The water here is particularly clear. Taking a boat down the river, there is a kind of artistic conception of “walking to the poor water and sitting and watching the clouds rise”. Both sides of the strait are crisp and verdant, the air is intoxicating, as if a person is swimming in the middle of a painting, and the boat is on the river, and there is a poetic and picturesque image of “people walking in the mirror, birds in the screen”.

Relying on the Fuchun landscape “unique to the southeast”, it also attracted many literati and writers to write many magnificent poems. Southern Dynasty writer Wu Jun once praised Fuchun River in his “Book of Thoughts with Zhu Yuan”: “From Fuyang to Tonglu a hundred miles, strange mountains and waters, unique in the world.” As the country’s top ten “diaotai” historic sites The Yanziling Fishing Platform at the top is one of the main scenic spots on the Fuchun River, and it is also a place that literati and inkmen of the past dynasties miss. Many cultural celebrities such as: Li Bai, Su Shi, Lu You, Fan Zhongyan, Meng Haoran, Li Qingzhao, Zhu Xi, Kang Youwei, Yu Dafu, Zhang Daqian, Guo Moruo, Ba Jin, etc. have come to the Diaoyutai to express the Chinese chapter poems of Fuchunjiang and Yan Ziling Diaotai, leaving behind A lot of poems and essays.

Looking into the distance, Huang Gongwang, one of the four great painters in the Yuan Dynasty, lived in Fuchun in seclusion, and spent several years drawing a picture of “Living in Fuchun Mountain”. This historical masterpiece has gone through the vicissitudes of life, and it was almost turned into ashes as a burial object of the rich. Now this two-part picture scroll is hidden in museums in mainland China and Taiwan. The beautiful landscape and the dazzling cultural monuments complement each other. You can not only feel the influence of history and culture, but also appreciate the thousand-year-old landscape. If you have a leisure time, you can also hold a rod of green bamboo and fish in the Fuchun River, and feel the Yan Ziling’s return to Fuchun River. State of mind.

Reaching off the epidemic season

Tens of thousands of ships along the coast of Vietnam are still stretching day and night to exploit seafood in traditional fishing grounds. The fishermen who go out to sea to stick to the sea not only make a living but also make living milestones, affirming the sovereignty over the sacred islands of the country.

At 5:00 a.m. on the first day of March, 2021, from Nam Du fishing port (An Son island commune, Kien Hai district, Kien Giang province), captain Le Quang Anh’s ship (Hai Anh) pulled anchors out to sea, heading straight to the fisherman. Ca Mau school – Kien Giang. This is considered one of the largest fishing grounds in our country because this area has currents carrying many plankton, along with a rich and abundant source of seafood. At the same time, this area also has a shallow continental shelf, many estuaries and tidal flats that are favorable for fishing.

The achievement of the sea after the tough nets.

On this trip, Mr. Hai Anh’s boat used ruffled nets. This form of fishing makes little disturbance to the benthic biota. Catched products are aquatic species with high economic value such as mackerel, tuna, herring … After 3 hours of breaking and reaching the sea, the boat has reached the traditional fishing ground and began to float the nets. Waiting time to pull the first batch of fish takes 4-6 hours. Captain Hai Anh and the crew on the boat took advantage of the nets to take a nap at night.

Seafaring in the South season is relatively mild, the wind is gentle, but thunderstorms are always sudden. Therefore, even though it is a “gentle” sea, the danger is unpredictable.

For nearly 2 years, the COVID-19 epidemic has been raging, affecting seriously consumption volume and price. Hai Anh ship’s seafood specializes in supplying 3 large restaurants in Phu Quoc. Influence of the disease, few tourists, and the restaurant was in a bad state, it forced prices down very low. There was a return sea trip, the price hit the bottom but the restaurant still could not consume it, the rest Hai Anh had to bring the termites to the fish sauce company at the “afternoon market” price.

The master “hears the fish”

Nguyen Xuan Thang (Tu Thang, 45 years old) has been a fisherman since the time his hair was still cropped, over 30 years up to now. Mr. Thang is a good “listening fish” hand that any ship wants to pull him away. After a sea trip of more than 20 days from Hai Anh ship, Mr. Tu Thang just returned home to throw the children fresh fish from the sea, took a few more clothes, then rushed to the dock to board the captain’s boat to scratch. Year of Singing. This time the rafting ship is expected to stay at sea for 30 days to return to shore, with crew of 8 people on board. The number of rake net is too small, the ship should have 3 more excellent fishermen, but they are stuck at Truong Sa fishing ground in Khanh Hoa sea.

Sewing nets, arranging nets to prepare for a night of fish hunting.

Scratching rake (also known as drag net) is a key fishing method of the fishery. The output of aquatic products caught by the drag net is estimated at over 50% of the total production. The fishing trawl fishery lives in the bottom layer, the seabed is relatively flat, the depth is usually 20-100m. The most important step of pounding depends on your ability to guess the flow of the fish. This is based entirely on a “listening to fish” player like Tu Thang.

The first quality of a person who “listens to fish” is to swim well and dive like a fish. With these two abilities, Tu Thang has been a “valedictorian” since the age of 20. On this voyage, Tu Thang’s boat prioritizes grouper and squid fishing. Grouper is known as a rare and high-priced seafood species. To hunt grouper flow, Tu Thang first had to dive into the sea, to find coral reefs and caves to explore. The grouper is an aggressive and very clever species, so it is difficult for humans to approach even from a distance.

Instead of looking directly at the flow of fish, Tu Thang will check the food carcasses of the fish left on the seabed and the smoothness of the rock cavities. Wherever the reef is cloudy, there is a lot of flora and small animals, there are grouper. Then, the diver pressed his ears to the rock niches to hear the water flowing around him. If the water is gurgling, then there must be grouper flocks around.

These signs, only experienced fish listeners like Tu Thang can feel. After correctly determining the flow of fish, the rake net will surround and sweep. The grouper, no matter how cunning and cunning, are still caught by “fangs” of pounding.

Mr. Tu prepares for the diving phase to find fish.

After each batch of grouper, the rake net is greatly torn by the sharp teeth and puncture of the fish’s fins. The mesh stitching takes a lot of time, requires meticulousness and patience. When night fell, all the sailors on board began to scratch the bottom floor squid. Like that, they worked until dawn the next day.

Every half a month, cargo ships will go to the fishing grounds to buy seafood. Trading on the sea is not like any other market, because both sellers and traders are fishermen for a long time, they understand the sea too well. They did not pay the price, what the price was, the seller just smiled and happily transferred the fish to the ship. The fish shipments are full, the ship is ready to donate to the collectors a few kilograms each, on the contrary, every time a failure, the boat buys happily “tip” more money tea.

After each transaction, the crew on the ship is immediately divided the remuneration. Their work is calculated according to the output in the form of “let’s eat together, lose together”. They can send money to buy to bring home or keep with them, have the opportunity to visit the island to refuel or shelter from storms will use the money to spend ashore.

The sea still sings the song on the waves

In recent years, the Kien Giang – Ca Mau fishing ground has been “poor” gradually. The fishing boats are more and more, so there is competition for channels and fishing grounds. The income of the sailors decreased gradually, so they went to search for a new land. Part of life is about life, but much of it wants to freely waving around in the vast sea and sky of the country.

Truong Sa, ever since has become a call of love tightly squeezed into the heart of every fisherman. Mr. Tu Thang said that at the beginning of 2021, he also had a trip to Truong Sa with his colleagues in the fishing village of Bich Dam (Khanh Hoa).

The trip in the fish-up season (the fish species migrating in the Southern waters began moving to the North), although hard and high-risk, made Mr. Tu Thang more excited. Because, the ship’s captain is the benefactor who saved his life 11 years ago in Truong Sa, when his ship crashed at sea. Remembering that night, Mr. Thang still choked. In those days, the boats went to the net, the fishing tools were rudimentary, but not modernly improved as now. The sea in June is relatively peaceful, on the mainland it is in the hot summer season, so no one thinks the night sea is windswept, such a terrible tornado.

The small ship is still standing in front of the ocean winds.

The ship was swept directly by a tornado, in a split second the deck burst into many pieces, the river-lamp fell into the sea, the side of the ship burst out, water flooded into the compartment. Only about 5 minutes, the ship rolled and turned upside down. Six sailors hugged plastic cans, tires plunged into the dark one-color sea. The cry for help faded away, weakened, then only the very light breathing of the exhausted people remained. Luckily Tu Thang was able to hold the tire, then he was too tired to fit into a small circle, trying to hold his arms and legs. The other brothers, holding onto plastic cans that could not stand the wind, let go of their hands, then sank into the seabed.

After eight famous floating uncertainties in the middle of the sea, at the dawn of the next day, Mr. Thang was now exhausted, and suddenly felt a strong hand grasp his body. When he woke up, he found himself lying in a warm blanket on a dry cabin, and turning his head sideways to find a familiar colleague on board the old train. Mr. Thang hugged you and cried.

So only 2 people were saved during that fateful trip. Returning to the shore, Tu Thang was taken care of by the family of captain Le Tan Cuong until the day he was well.

Tu Thang wanted to accept Captain Cuong as his brother, but Mr. Cuong just laughed, saying that Vietnamese fishermen from all ages are brothers and sisters. Mr. Cuong told Tu Thang not to be too fussy about the past, but to stick to the sea, love the sea and ready to help anyone in distress at sea. Because of that teaching, the love of the sea in Tu Thang’s heart is always deep, and in hardship remains intact.

Because of the deep love, but only Captain Cuong called out an hour, Mr. Thang was ready to go, leaving without a moment of hesitation. A year, Mr. Thang goes to Truong Sa beach at least 1 trip, each year at most 5 trips. The rest of the time, he returned to his hometown in Kien Giang, following a friend’s ship here and there, wandering in the sea.

The seafarers live by the pride and dignity of the man. Human love at sea is no longer a matter of debate. Because of that, many fishermen with heavy debt cannot leave the sea. Captain Nam Hat, despite turning 60 years old with nearly 50 years of fighting the ocean, is still firmly on the steering wheel before many seasons of rough seas. All his life, Mr. Nam Hat traveled throughout the seas from Hoang Sa, Truong Sa to the Southwest. Many times life was fragile in front of the ship, due to natural disasters and human ears, but he never wavered. To him, if he had to die on the sacred sea and sky of the Fatherland, he still stubbornly accepted it.
