(Baonghean) - The Nam Non River originates in Laos, enters Vietnam in Keng Du commune, flows down to My Ly (Ky Son district), and is dammed to exploit its hydroelectric potential in Yen Na commune (Tuong Duong district). The end point of this majestic river is Cua Rao, where it merges with the Nam Mo River to form the Lam River... The beauty of the Nam Non lies not only in its grandeur but also in the lives and livelihoods of the people living along this river, and in the picturesque villages beside it...

Here are some images captured by a reporter from Nghe An Newspaper during a trip down the Nam Non River:
