(Baonghean.vn) - Since the Hua Na Hydropower Plant began impounding water, the Chu River, which originates in Laos and flows through the two communes of Thong Thu and Dong Van (Que Phong), has suddenly become a vast "lake" spanning several thousand square kilometers.
During the flood season (August, September, October in the lunar calendar), the Hua Na hydroelectric reservoir is strangely beautiful. Every scene, from the islands scattered across the water, the fishing boats, the dry trees floating on the lake, the rows of trees... and even the slopes eroded by floods, resembles a watercolor painting. It's wild, mysterious, and enchanting...
