KON TUM-Thanh Hang suggests new locations with beautiful natural scenery in Mang Den and a one-day exploration itinerary.
Nguyen Thanh Hang, 24 years old, from Hanoi, moved in Black bamboo shoots Lived and worked for 8 months. During her time here, she spent the weekends, separating herself from work, exploring every corner of this resort town.
“Many people say that Mang Den is sad, there are few places to play, around there are only Pa Sy waterfall, Virgin Mary statue, Dak Ke lake, Kon Bring village... But the truth is that Mang Den has many other new destinations, few people know. , associated with natural scenery. These are the places I was suggested by local people," Thanh Hang shared.
If you get up early, 5am is the ideal time to go Cloud hunting in the Tran Nhan Tong street area. At this location, you can see the sea of clouds floating right below your feet. Around 6 o'clock the sun began to appear and the clouds gradually dissipated.
To get here, you will go through beautiful, deserted forest roads, where you can stop to rest and take photos. Forest roads with streaks of sunlight through the foliage are a specialty of Mang Den town.
In Mang Den, there are many roads surrounded by layers of mountains, located between high pine forests. Going through these roads, you will occasionally hear the sound of a gurgling stream.
Come around 8 o'clock Old Mang Den airport, taking photos with the reed grassland. This is currently an empty lot, there is no manager, so you can freely enter and exit, but you need to maintain hygiene and general order. The reed beach at the old airport is little known so it is quite wild, with old reed flowers, head-high.
Lo Ba Waterfall (Road No. 1, beginning of Mang Den town) is the next destination. The waterfall has a height of over 40 m with more than 250 central steps leading down to the stream. The water flow of Lo Ba waterfall carries the cold air of the mountains and forests originating from the peaks of Mang But, Dak Tang, and Mang Canh, pouring down, creating white foam.
In 2015, Kon Plong district (Kon Tum) invested in a new route to serve people coming here. The road is concreted, with steep sections that are difficult to navigate. You should ride a motorbike because you will run through green pine forests and primeval forests, with the scent of coffee flowers.
Kon Tu Rang suspension bridge 10 km from Mang Den town. The bridge spans the river with many interwoven natural rocks, large and small. On both sides of the river are rice fields, creating long waves under the sun. “The scene is like a giant painting right at your feet. It wasn't worth our effort to drive more than 10 km to get here," Hang said.
Discover Kon Tu Rang village under the bridge in the afternoon is the next suggestion. Hang and a group of friends drove to the dam area near the statue of the Virgin Mary. At the corner from the intersection of Highway 24 and Ngo Quyen Street, there is a small lake, deserted but there is a housing area being built for road construction workers.
Arrived here in time at 17:XNUMX p.m., the sunset was just beautiful to end a perfect day.
The above locations are all located in town Black bamboo shoots You should move quickly, mainly sightseeing and taking photos. You can quickly return to the homestay for a lunch break or stop by the coffee shop to refresh yourself for the afternoon journey. In addition, these places are all free to enter and exit, quite deserted, and few people know. You only need to fill a tank of gas for 80.000 to 100.000 VND for a whole day of travel. Additional money for lunch and coffee is about 200.000 VND.
