Tourists' impressions of Thanh heritage land during holidays

Thanh land, where there are poetic beaches, white sand, golden sunshine, rustic dishes with the flavor of Thanh land, and extremely interesting and unique spiritual architectural works... Therefore, during the April 30 - May 1 holiday, many domestic and foreign tourists have chosen this land as a "stopover" destination in their journey to explore the "heritage land".

Doc Cuoc Temple (Sam Son City) attracts tourists to visit and offer incense.

Coming to the coastal city of Sam Son these days, the roads and streets are brightly decorated, the system of motels, hotels, restaurants is renovated, as if wearing a new coat... The clean, beautiful beach area stretches out with a vibrant, bustling atmosphere. The space of the coastal city is both poetic, lyrical, youthful and modern, bringing visitors interesting and useful moments of rest and relaxation. At historical - cultural relics, scenic spots also attract a number of visitors to come to offer incense and sightsee. Quietly on one side are deep green mountains with rustling trees and leaves, below is the immense waves of water day and night lapping against the undulating rocks, in the distance the bustling, bustling streets, Doc Cuoc Temple appears sacred, quiet, giving visitors a feeling of lightness and serenity every time they visit. Perhaps that is why this place attracts a large number of visitors to offer incense and sightsee every holiday.

Among the many people present, we had the chance to talk with Ms. Tran Thi Hai Binh, from Son La province. Respectfully arranging the offerings neatly to offer to the Doc Cuoc god, Mrs. Binh shared: "This is the 4th time I have returned to this sunny and windy land of Sam Son. Every time I come here, it gives me a feeling of relaxation and freshness. This year, the 30/4-1/5 holiday is a long one, so I stayed here for 3 days to swim in the sea, enjoy specialties and visit historical - cultural relics and scenic spots. During my stay here, I visited almost all the places such as: Hon Trong Mai, Doc Cuoc temple, Co Tien temple... Each place is a story and contains many different values ​​about the historical figures worshiped. That has helped me understand more about the history of the nation, as well as the cultural features in the process of formation and living of coastal residents. In particular, my impression is that the landscape and environment at the relics are always bright, green, clean and beautiful, especially the people and those working in tourism. The people here are very friendly and hospitable. And for sure, after this trip, my family and friends and I will come back here many more times."

Every road, every historical - cultural relic, and scenic spot is a place that tourists cannot miss when coming to the beautiful coastal city of Sam Son. Taking a group of tourists from Quang Ninh City to Sam Son to swim, visit, and experience, Mr. Nguyen Van Son said: "Sam Son is beautiful and strange! Therefore, in the eyes of tourists, Sam Son is not only a destination, but also leaves many special impressions. Each street vendor, bicycle full of flowers, the streets full of flags and flowers, and even the crowded, bustling atmosphere here also make the hearts of tourists from afar move and flutter. In particular, the feeling of spiritual peace when taking tourists to historical relics and scenic spots seems to help people shake off the worries and concerns of life. Therefore, on the journey to bring tourists to Sam Son, historical relics and scenic spots are places that we must definitely take tourists to".

"Located in the heart of Thanh - an ancient land, vibrant with cultural colors, Sam Son stands out with its amazing natural scenery, containing many cultural and historical values, associated with legends and myths that have been deeply imprinted in the minds of the people. Those factors have created a sacred, dreamy and charming Sam Son, an attractive meeting place to welcome tourists from all over the world" - This is also the speech of comrade Le Van Tu, Chairman of Sam Son City People's Committee at the opening night of the 2024 sea tourism festival "Sam Son - Brilliant Colors".

Indeed, Sam Son currently has 35 cultural and spiritual relics, spread across the coastal city. Each relic is associated with a legend, a legendary story. Coming here, visitors will surely be captivated by the vast space of the beautiful, cool ocean and immerse themselves in the stories associated with the system of relics and extremely unique and special landscapes.

Tourists offer incense at Lam Kinh historical site (Tho Xuan)

On their spiritual journey, many tourists have visited Lam Kinh Historical Site (Tho Xuan) - a place with the most unique architectural works in Thanh Hoa and a green environment all year round.

Coming here with a group of meritorious people from Bac Ninh province to visit during the April 30-May 1 holiday, veteran Nguyen Truong Ca could not help but exclaim: "Lam Kinh is truly attractive. The attraction comes from the sacred space itself, Lam Kinh is located on a hill filled with sunshine and wind. Looking down from above, the entire inner city of Lam Kinh is like a giant peacock spreading its wings to soar into the sky and printing a deep red color that stands out among the lush green space of Lam Son mountains and forests. And the attraction is also in the majesty and grandeur with works such as: the main hall, the Thai Mieu buildings, Nghinh Mon, Dragon yard, Bach bridge, Ngoc stream, ancient well... and works to protect tombs, stone steles...

Along with that, this place has an extremely attractive ecosystem, because of the natural "green architecture", formed from the old forests and Ngoc stream, the rows of cool green trees. Therefore, coming here, we learned about a heroic historical period of fighting against foreign invaders, as well as the construction of a prosperous Dai Viet nation in the past. And, we were able to admire the extremely unique spiritual works, surrounded by a cool green space. The tour guide team is also extremely professional and friendly. Therefore, this place has left a deep impression in our hearts."

Tourists visit Lam Kinh historical site

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Toan, Head of the Lam Kinh Historical Site Management Board, said: During the April 30-May 1 holiday, the site receives an average of 1,000 visitors a day to visit and offer incense. To meet the needs of visitors, the site has paid special attention to improving the environmental landscape in a "green" direction, close to nature, and friendly to the environment. At the same time, because the holiday is a hot season, fire prevention and fighting work is given top priority. In addition, we also arrange a team of staff on duty regularly to serve visitors. To improve the quality of meeting the needs of tourists, the tour guide team here is also constantly trained in a methodical and professional manner... These are important solutions for the site to always "score points", leaving a deep impression in the hearts of visitors.

Tourists visit Lam Kinh historical site

As a land of “geomancy and human talent”, where the cultural quintessence of thousands of historical and cultural relics crystallized and formed during the struggle to build and defend the country by generations of ancestors. Each construction is likened to a “slice” of history reflecting the life and career of historical figures, preserving many interesting stories about culture, history, and national traditions formed from the depths of the past and left for the future.

In order for spiritual tourism in Thanh Hoa to develop more and more, attracting tourists to visit, all levels, sectors and localities in the province have made constant efforts in the work of restoring, embellishing and promoting the value of relics. Thanks to that, many relics after being restored and embellished have been "revived" with a majestic and spacious appearance, becoming the top spiritual destinations in Thanh Hoa, attracting many domestic and foreign tourists to visit, leaving a deep impression in the hearts of visitors, especially during the April 30 - May 1 holiday this year. These include: Lam Kinh historical relic site, Ba Trieu Temple, Co Bo Temple, Doc Cuoc Temple...

That is not only an affirmation of all levels, sectors and localities in respecting the great contributions of our ancestors, but also contributes to preserving and promoting the traditional values ​​of our ancestors for future generations.
