On the morning of July 28, the project “Hue - A City to Reduce Plastics in Central Vietnam”, funded by the World Wide Fund For Nature (WWF) - Norway (through the WWF - Vietnam), received by Hue City People's Committee, in collaboration with the Provincial Department of Tourism, organized the inauguration of 5 waiting lounges and free water stations at tourist destinations, including: Thien Mu Pagoda, Bao Vinh Ancient Town, Ban Nguyet Bridge - Me Wharf, Vong Canh Hill, and Sinh Village wrestling area (Hue City).

Although it must be so strenuous to stick with this work, once the rubber trees are planted and grow up in the hilly area, and the half-mountain half-plain of Thua Thien Hue, its miracle of “poverty-alleviation” to people’s lives is visible.

Every year, around the 20th of the 12th lunar month, just before Kitchen Gods Day, we the children in the city center were sent to the family lineage house on the slope of Ha Khe Hill near Thien Mu Pagoda to visit our grandma and helped her prepare for Tet since my parents were too busy to come.

The area of Thua Thien Hue passing through Huong Tra is truly a sequence of magical sites of heaven and earth. From low to high, the land starts from the sea, where the waves rumble, to the vast lagoon with the silver moon shining on the water, to the fertile plains of corn and rice, to the green midland at the foot of the mountain and the lush green hills ascending to high mountain peaks.
