Cau Cau Tea Island is considered the “Ha Long of Nghe An” thanks to its charming landscape and rare characteristics. This is an irrigation lake built in 1963, with the highlight being the lush green tea islands standing out among the green mountains and blue water, bringing a wild and romantic beauty.

Every day, dozens of tourist boats are still ready to serve tourists around the lake.

Mr. Nguyen Thanh Dat (32 years old, from Ben Tre) shared: “The first time I came to Thanh Chuong tea island, I was really impressed by its unique beauty, rarely seen anywhere else. Tea hills are found in many localities, but a tea island in the middle of a vast lake like this is very special. I am very happy to be at this famous tourist destination of Nghe An during the holidays”.

Many tourists often choose to buy these specialties as gifts when leaving the tea island. Mr. Pham Dong A (33 years old, from Can Tho) said: "I learned about Thanh Chuong tea island through the media and social networks, and when I experienced it firsthand, I found it very interesting. However, the services and goods here are still limited and not really diverse." Photo: Huy Thu Visitors to the tea island can stay at homestays and motels around the island and participate in interesting experiences such as tea picking, tea tasting, fishing or boating, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere amidst the fresh nature.

Thanh specialties such as pickled salad, grilled chicken, and fried shrimp are delicious, clean, and reasonably priced, and are always highly appreciated by tourists. Mr. Nguyen Viet Lam, owner of Thuan Lam boat house (Thanh An commune) shared: "Although the weather during this holiday is not very favorable, the number of visitors is still quite large. During peak days, my family has to mobilize more people to best serve tourists." Photo: Huy Thu
