Crater Lake

About tens of millions of years ago, a volcanic eruption formed Ly Son Island (Quang Ngai). If you have the opportunity to visit the island, don't forget to explore Thoi Loi freshwater reservoir.

Located in An Hai commune, Thoi Loi is the largest volcano on Ly Son island with a peak of more than 149 m above sea level and is also the highest point on the island. The journey to explore the mountain peak will be more interesting when you pass through the largest freshwater lake on the island. This is also the source of water for irrigation for onion and garlic fields and serves the daily life of local people. The road takes visitors from the flagpole, heading south, gradually climbing up the mountain to the natural lake that looks like a giant funnel. This is also the crater from millions of years ago that erupted lava flows, contributing to the unique appearance of Ly Son today.

At each time of the day, the lake surface has its own beauty, creating a multi-colored natural picture. In the morning, when the sun begins to rise from the east, the gentle light covers the surface of Thoi Loi Lake, creating a fresh blue color. The early rays of sunlight shine down, making the water surface sparkle as if sprinkled with silver. The surrounding space is quiet, with only the sound of birds chirping and the gentle wind blowing through the grass by the lake, creating a fresh, peaceful scene.

At noon, under the harsh sunlight, the lake becomes more brilliant with a deep blue color. The sunlight shines vertically, highlighting every small ripple. The water surface reflects the blue sky and the white clouds floating, creating a vivid picture. At this time, the air is a bit hot, but the deep blue color of the lake brings a cool, relaxing feeling.

In the evening, when the sun has set, the lake surface turns almost black. The scene is quiet, with only the murmur of the wind and the distant sound of the waves. The lake surface is as calm as a large mirror reflecting the night sky, bringing a feeling of peace and depth. In the darkness, Thoi Loi Lake seems to fall asleep, waiting for the light of a new day. The first irrigation project on the island not only has economic significance and the lives of local people but also attracts a large number of tourists to visit, becoming an attractive destination of the island.
