Our teacher chose this location as it is not far from Ha Noi and is famous as a mountainous ecological tourism centre. It is home to hundreds of wildlife species, so we had a chance to get into a real natural habitat. We went there on a coach. We set off early and because the road was a bit bumpy and tricky, we were tired when we arrived. After about two hours, we finally reached the campsite in Ngoc Hoa cave area. We set up our camps before exploring the park. We explored the rich nature in the Botanical Garden, trying to take deep breaths of the fresh air and enjoying the diversity of the flora there. We took photos of the places we saw. At night, we burnt wood for a campfire. We sat around the fire and sang and danced. We also had team- building activities, which were exciting and memorable. On the next day, we went trekking to Thuong Temple - a national cultural monument at Tan Vien Peak. We learnt much about the culture associated with the legend Son Tinh and Thuy Tinh from our guide.
