Viewing Ba Ra Mountain from the tallest building in Vietnam: The moment to 'hunt' for beautiful photos

Sharing with Thanh Nien, Mr. Trinh The Cuong, a tour guide in Ho Chi Minh City, said that he has had a passion for photography for many years. On the morning of the weekend of November 2, while "hunting" for photos of Ho Chi Minh City from above at his house in Phuoc Kien commune (Nha Be district), he was surprised when he took a photo of Ba Ra mountain in the distance. The angle of the photo shows the tallest building in Vietnam, Landmark 81, hidden among the clouds, and in the distance is Ba Ra mountain, creating an interesting moment.

Mr. Cuong said that he often "hunts" for photos of Ho Chi Minh City from above, but he cannot always observe and take photos of Ba Ra Mountain. The last Sunday (November 2) for him was one of the rare days when he could take photos of this mountain from Ho Chi Minh City. The moment the top of the tallest building in Vietnam appeared among the clouds, the plane flew by, and in the distance was the third highest mountain in the South, creating an interesting moment.

Mr. Cuong has taken many photos of Ba Den Mountain ( Tay Ninh ) from Ho Chi Minh City. However, for him, the times when the weather is favorable to take photos of Ba Ra Mountain are very rare. "For many years, I often hunt for photos of mountains in neighboring provinces from Ho Chi Minh City, so I know which direction to take photos of Ba Den Mountain, Ba Ra Mountain or Thi Vai Mountain. However, this photo hunting requires luck," he said.

Ba Ra Mountain is 723 m above sea level, considered the highest mountain in the old Binh Phuoc province and the third highest in the South. According to the Stieng language, Ba Ra is "Bonom Brah", meaning "divine mountain". Legend has it that the ancestor of the Stieng people had two younger sisters. He built Ba Den Mountain for the first younger sister and built Ba Ra Mountain for the second younger sister to protect the land of the Stieng people. The Stieng people call this mountain with the respectful name of the sacred place "God of Yang Yumbra Mountain", the god worshiped on the top of the mountain. The Khmer people call it "Buddha's Foot" mountain.
