If you are familiar with Lac village in Mai Chau Hoa Binh, you can choose an equally interesting but still very wild destination in Nang Cat village, Tri Nang commune, Lang Chanh district, Thanh Hoa. This is the place where the Black Thai ethnic group lives with stilt houses hidden in the lush green bamboo forest.

Leading to the village is a trail about 17 km long from the district center, with rice fields and corn fields on both sides. Walking in the middle of a hot summer day, the air here is very airy and fresh, because it is surrounded by green mountains and trees. Coming to the village, you will be immersed in the lives of simple ethnic people such as picking vegetables, working in the fields... or playing To mak le with the Black Thai girls (using your feet to control round, flat mak le balls to hit the target). A place not to be missed in the village is Ma Hao waterfall, a stream flowing through a steep cliff, below are large, round, smooth rocks.

Newly opened in Dien Chau, Nghe An, this is the largest wildlife zoo in the Northern region, located in the Muong Thanh ecological complex. Although the facilities are still in the process of completion, the animals and birds here are very rich. The first place you will visit is the exhibition house which is like a miniature museum of animals. Next are the large cages for ostriches, antelopes, zebras, giraffes, sun bears, hippos, elephants, especially rhinos and white tigers. Many of these species are imported from Africa.

In addition to the fenced areas to ensure the safety of visitors, the zoo also designed open areas to create a feeling of being closer to the animals but not dangerous. Therefore, in addition to visiting, you can also directly feed them at some points. The entrance fee is 70,000 VND for adults and 50,000 VND for children.

Currently, traditional medicine doctors also periodically come here to examine, prescribe medicine and treat diseases.

Legend has it that before his death, Le Huu Trac told his descendants to fly a kite, and that wherever the kite fell, he would rest in peace when he died. The eco-tourism site was built on the land where the kite string fell, and the grave of the famous physician is on the other side of the mountain. Therefore, when staying here, most visitors come to offer incense at the tomb and monument of Le Huu Trac, a few kilometers away.
