If
Hue looks ancient and bashful like a charming and graceful girl, Tam Giang Lagoon, about 15 kilometers from Hue City, is endowed with pristine and handsome features like a would-be suitor. From there,
travelers can depart on a fishing boat with locals to explore the mystery of the lagoon.
Tam Giang lagoon – an interesting tourist destination in Hue
At the beginning, you may meet a local market where local people come here every day for their daily shopping. What are purchased in this market? Mostly fresh seafood which is just caught minutes ago by fishing men because this lagoon is home to a variety of water creatures.
Like other Vietnamese markets, Tam Giang market is quite crowded, a little bit smelly and busy. If you want to get inside a local life, this market is truly a revelation. It is such a shame if you miss out all the best foods in Lagoon. From squid, prawns to crab, all of them are amazing in texture, rich in flavor and well-cooked by the handful chefs.
For Hue
tourism, Tam Giang Lagoon is a priceless resource unique in
Vietnam. The lagoon is so beautiful that when standing in front of it, the hearts of every tourist beat as standing in front of a beautiful girl.
Watch sunset on Tam Giang lagoon
The most beautiful moments on the lagoon are at sunset when it turns purple. A few fishing boats return home late with lines of casuarinas running with the skyline separating the water from the sky, with the whole lagoon’s surface shaking in the breeze. These are images that visitors have to capture. Under the final rays of sunshine, some kids in old costumes frolic in the shallow water as others tie their father’s boat and go for a swim.
Experience the life in fishing villages with locals
Local people mostly live on their traditional job as fishing. In the early morning, men start a journey to sea for catching seafood while women stick their feet into waters to search for shellfish then bring to the market for sale. These people hardly find another better occupation to raise their living standards because Tam Giang is still a poor district in
Hue. Even though most of the local can't earn enough money to spend for their lives, they still keep great friendly mind and treat others well as their friends.
Tam Giang lagoon is truly a nice tough to brighten the way of exploring rural areas in
Vietnam. Travelers can find excellent seafood and view outstanding natural setting in Tam Giang. A trip here definitely provides a peaceful feeling for those who love nature.
