Traveling through the country's roads, we will see that Vietnam is very beautiful. Our country is like embroidered flowers.
After the graduation exam, it would have been a long time for me if it weren't for the trip across Vietnam with my grandfather. After I got my exam results and registered for university admission, he said: "I'll reward you with a two-week trip, traveling around our country with me." I was so happy, there was nothing happier than experiencing and visiting beautiful landscapes all over the country.
I love all the roads in my country. Up in the mountains or down to the sea, sunrise or sunset, natural scenery or man-made scenery, wherever I go, I want to take my camera to record. The camera my father gave me on my 17th birthday has become my companion on many trips.
Passing through Nghe An - Ha Tinh region, I suddenly remembered the song:"The road to Nghe An is winding/ The green mountains and blue water are like a painting". What a beautiful and charming scene! Visiting Uncle Ho's hometown - Sen village (Kim Kien commune, Nam Dan district, Nghe An province) makes my heart flutter. The items are still intact such as: wooden bench, black painted wooden tray, standing cabinet, bed, food chest... What remains in me are the overwhelming emotions, when every step he took to find a way to save the country, across the five continents and four seas, he always yearned for his homeland.
I was fascinated by the road up to Deo Ngang, Quang Binh province. I was amazed when passing through one of the most beautiful coastal roads in Vietnam in Binh Thuan province. I enjoyed watching the sunrise in Quang Tri sea. I love the wind farm in Ninh Thuan. I am extremely excited when visiting the beaches in the South Central region of my country: Quang Ngai, Binh Thuan, Binh Dinh, Phu Yen...
I arrived at Eo Gio - Quy Nhon on a bright sunny day. A man in the group jokingly said: "Being out in the sun for a day like this is like being dried squid for one day". The whole group laughed loudly. My grandfather said: "Sunbathing is good for your health, and to keep your skin free from termites". I was fascinated with taking photos again and discovered that in this place, no matter what, people are just a backdrop to the beautiful natural scenery.
Having set foot on new lands, I have come to understand that Vietnam is a very beautiful country. Our country is like embroidered brocade, as beautiful as a painting. And I love my Fatherland so much!
My grandfather and I went to Dong Loc crossroads on the 56th anniversary of the heroic event - ten young girls fell and lay in the motherland. Their lives stopped forever at the age of 20! The ten girls at Dong Loc crossroads have become immortal monuments in the heart of the Fatherland and in the hearts of the people.
- Your generation must learn about gratitude. Never, for any reason, forget or be ungrateful to those who sacrificed for today's peaceful life! - He gave me the incense stick he had just lit and reminded me of my attitude towards my ancestors in the past.
We visited the tomb of General Vo Nguyen Giap in Vung Chua, Yen Island, Quang Trach District (Quang Binh). This place is located right at the foot of Hoanh Son Mountain and about 10 km from Ngang Pass. You may not know, Vung Chua is considered to have an extremely favorable position when surrounded by Hon La, Hon Gio and Hon Nom. If looking down from above, we will see that Vung Chua and Yen Island have a fan shape.
Because the group had little time and could not hire a guide, with my limited knowledge about the General and his tomb, I boldly introduced it to you. Because it was my first time doing this, I was very emotional, I forgot and stumbled a few times, but when I stopped speaking, the whole group applauded, which made me feel excited.
My grandfather and I went on a boat to Con Dao with a group. The boat was 4 stories high, with a cabin larger than a Boeing, and could carry up to 800 people. The trip to the island lasted 4 hours, and I was only in the cabin for about 30 minutes. The rest of the time, I went up on the deck to admire and immerse myself in the vastness of the vast sea and sky.
The trip ended, my grandfather and I returned to Hanoi when autumn had just begun to knock on the door. The corners of the capital's streets were filled with brilliant flowers, beautiful and poetic. The car took my grandfather and I back to our hometown of Hai Duong after half a month away, the joy of reunion overflowed. The familiar roads appeared with brilliant flags and flowers preparing to celebrate the Independence Day. I felt lucky because after the past journey, I had more valuable experiences to love and be proud of my hometown and country even more.
