According to locals, this type of persimmon must be soft and ripe to be edible and has little economic value. Therefore, they only select a few ripe fruits to give as gifts or for family consumption. Photo: Dao Tho

“Every persimmon season, I go to Tay Son to visit, mainly to pick some persimmons to display in my yard as decoration, and I give some ripe ones to relatives and friends,” said Nguyen Thac Dong, a tourist from Huu Kiem commune (Ky Son district). Photo: Dao Tho

Ripe persimmons are also a favorite food of Hmong children in the highlands of Nghe An province. Photo: Dao Tho

Many tourists from other places come to Tay Son this season mainly to chase clouds, admire the blooming peach blossoms, and wear Mong ethnic costumes to "check-in" with the persimmon trees laden with fruit. Photo: Dao Tho
