The wild beauty of the Indian Ocean
According to the investigation of Giao thong Newspaper reporters, Tram Chim National Park in Tam Nong district (Dong Thap) not only has red-crowned cranes, but also has Hoang dau an flowers - a very strange flower, only found in Dong Thap.
This “special” flower only grows in acidic soil and blooms for four hours a day in the late morning at 10:30 a.m. and fades in the afternoon around 2:30 p.m. They create a brilliant yellow carpet of flowers in the middle of a cool green cajuput forest at the 4th Ramsar site in Vietnam and the 2,000th in the world.

Mr. Le Hoang Long, Director of Tram Chim tourist area, said that Tram Chim National Park is divided into many ecosystems such as animals, plants, cajuput forests, seasonal flooded fields, reed grasslands, wild rice fields, water sedge and swamp ecosystems.
"Last year, the yellow trumpet flowers did not bloom, but this year they bloomed profusely and in large numbers. This is thanks to the reasonable water level regulation. The flowers usually appear in areas A4 and A5, but currently they are appearing a lot in area A4," Mr. Long added.
Interesting destinations for visitors during Lunar New Year
According to Mr. Long, the Indian yellow flower only blooms once a year and lasts for about two months. After the flower fades, the red-crowned crane will have a favorite food in that location.
"We are very happy that the Hoang Dau An flowers bloom right on the days before the Lunar New Year of Giap Thin 2024. This is an opportunity for tourists to visit, experience and take photos. Therefore, Tram Chim tourist area will start welcoming guests on January 27, 2024," Mr. Long informed.
This car will take visitors to the field of Hoang Dau An flowers to experience many interesting things.
Following the first group of tourists to the blooming field of Hoang Dau An flowers at Tram Chim National Park, the reporter experienced sitting on a tac rang (a small motorboat - reporter) into the cajuput forest and began the journey of "hunting for photos" on the yellow flower carpet spreading out in the middle of the immense green forest.
Sharing about this interesting journey, Ms. Lam Kim Ngoan (30 years old, living in Ho Chi Minh City) shared that she was really surprised when she came to Tram Chim tourist area today and was introduced to visit the field of yellow trumpet flowers.
"This is the first time I have experienced something interesting with a bright yellow flower field like this. It was even more interesting when the tour guide introduced the Hoang Dau An flower as a wild flower but it creates a highlight for Tram Chim," said Ms. Ngoan.
Many professional photographers wait for the yellow trumpet vine to bloom to capture beautiful images of the wildflowers.
Besides, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Nhan (34 years old, living in Cao Lanh city, Dong Thap province) said that in the past few days, he saw many people sharing pictures of the yellow-flowered Indian orchids blooming at Tram Chim National Park on social networks. Taking advantage of this weekend, he took the opportunity to visit, experience and take souvenir photos.
Mr. Nhan said: "It is very interesting that this year the yellow trumpet flowers bloom on the days before the Lunar New Year. This is an opportunity for tourists to have more time to come and explore and immerse themselves in the fields of flowers blooming in bright yellow."
The shimmering yellow color of the Indian orchid is blooming brilliantly in the world's 2,000th Ramsar site.
"Tram Chim tourist area always diversifies tourism services, especially seasonal products and services, with unique and distinctive features to attract visitors and experience.
During the service exploitation process, it is associated with environmental protection, forest fire prevention and fighting of Tram Chim National Park and ensuring safety for visitors during the service use.
However, when red-crowned cranes are detected, the service of visiting the field of yellow-flowered cranes will be stopped to carry out conservation work," Mr. Long informed.
The Sarus Crane is listed as vulnerable in the Red List of Threatened Species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN).
In 2021, three red-crowned cranes arrived at Tram Chim National Park and from 2022 until now, no cranes have been seen here.
