I would choose Disney World, Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Disney Hong Kong, Tokyo, or Shanghai. A Disney cruise is also an option for a great drop-it-and-go vacation. I have been dreaming, like Rapunzel, of leaving my metaphorical tower to go on a grand adventure through the surrounding kingdoms of the land.

Vietnam tourism part 2 : Na Hang - Tuyen Quang
The meandering road that stretches over 100km along the mountainside connects Tuyen Quang city to Na Hang district like a delicate silk ribbon. After a 2-hour drive on the winding road, A Hang town, a small town neighboring Son Cuoc, suddenly becomes captivating. Amidst the vast mountains, forests, and rivers, the gentle streets lining the Gam River resemble colorful brocade under the early sunlight. At the town's edge lies a large lake nestled beneath rocky mountains, resembling a watercolor painting. Referred to in the Tay Na Hang language as "thang," meaning the last field, this land is the ancestral home to 12 ethnic groups who have coexisted here for generations. Despite the challenging conditions in Tuy Cuoc, the residents remain united with a shared aspiration to overcome poverty and underdevelopment. Throughout history, people have believed that areas where multiple water streams converge signify prosperity. The meeting point of the Gam River and Nang River, flanked by majestic mountain ranges, paints a charming landscape. This ecological region exudes a pristine allure, with legendary tales surrounding each land and village. The rich cultural tapestry of the ethnic groups promises a delightful experience to all visitors, even those who only visit once. This convergence harmonizes the waters and serves as a magnet for tourists to explore Na Hang, featuring distinctive attractions like the mountain-perched Lam Binh restaurant within a National Scenic Spot. The Na Hang ecological lake, part of the Lam Binh nature reserve, spans 8,000 hectares bordering Bac Me district and Ba Be province in Bac Kan province. Home to numerous captivating tourist spots such as Bac Tang mountain and Bac Ta Temple, linked to the history of General Truong Van Vuong Tran Nhat Duat. The area also houses the destroyed Tran Dynasty's two dragon caves and a thousand-year-old tourist complex. These sites within the special National Scenic Spot preserve Na Hang's natural essence, offering an unforgettable experience to tourists visiting the over 43,000-hectare Lam Binh natural reserve.

Tuyen Quang and Bac Kan provinces collaborate on scientific documentation and nature conservation, with the Ba Be Na Hang Trinh unit recognized as a World Natural Heritage. These protected zones, with buffer and core areas, facilitate connectivity for the Ba Be Lake tourist route. Na Hang's touristic allure extends to its natural wonders, like the Rash waterfall, or Thac Mo, resembling a strip of white silk from a distance. Rising five stories high, the tower now stands with two submerged floors due to flooding from the Tuyen Quang hydroelectric plant. The forest above Thac Mo echoes with gecko calls, enhancing its wild charm. Visitors immersing themselves in this heavenly space encounter the cool cascades and ancient forests at Thac Mo, a prominent tourist destination within the Na Hang ecological tour. As night falls, tourists delight in simple yet flavorful dishes like grilled field carp, wild vegetables, and sticky rice, reflecting the local culinary traditions. The must-have dried buffalo meat dish complements the soothing melodies amidst the 1,200m altitude setting, surrounded by majestic hills.
