During the Lunar New Year of the Year of the Horse, while the city streets were still bustling with the sounds of spring festivities, many tourists chose to travel to Mang Den commune, Quang Ngai province, to stroll amidst the mountains and forests, awaiting the moment when the clouds and sky merge with the vast wilderness.

From early morning, as the sun just rises above the horizon, thin layers of clouds gently rise from the valley, weaving through the hillsides, blanketing the high points in white, such as the Our Lady of Mang Den Hill, the 37-household area, Kon Tu Rang village, Kon Pring, Kon Vong Kia… The entire space seems to be immersed in a sea of fluffy clouds, creating a scene that is both majestic and poetic.

According to locals, the ideal time to go cloud hunting in Mang Den is from February to September, with the best time being early morning. When the mist is still light, the first rays of sunlight pierce through the clouds, creating streaks of white mist that glide across the lush green pine forest, painting a pristine and enchanting picture of nature.
Along Vo Nguyen Giap and Ngo Quyen streets, many cafes with elevated seating have become popular stops for tourists. Simply choose a balcony corner, sip a hot cup of coffee, and gaze out at the sea of clouds. Many people take advantage of these rare moments to capture them with their cameras and phones, preserving this unique "specialty" of Mang Den.

He said the air here is fresh and pleasant, a stark contrast to the crowds in the coastal city. "Early in the morning, fog and clouds cover everything, but the pine forest appears very beautiful and poetic. It feels like you can touch the clouds," Mr. Nghia said.
