Many exciting activities at the first Rice Flower Festival.

Located on the left bank of the Lam River, bordering Con Cuong district, Tam Son commune in Anh Son district is a remote and disadvantaged area with difficult socio -economic conditions. However, the commune has preserved beautiful scenery and cultural identity, especially the stunning kapok tree-lined roads. These ancient kapok trees, in bloom in March, are a highlight and a crucial element for tourism development.
