(vov.gov.vn) - During the winter months, many people come to the garden in Moc Chau, Son La to see the persimmon trees laden with fruit, as romantically beautiful as gardens in fairy tales.
Moc Chau, Son La is an attractive destination for tourists because of its cool, mild climate and year-round lush flowers and fruits. At the end of the year, Moc Chau seems to put on a new coat with the warm orange-yellow color of the rose clusters hanging from the branches.
Rose season lasts from September to the end of February of the following year. The best time is in November.
Moc Chau persimmons have two types: crispy persimmons and astringent persimmons. When the astringent persimmons are ripe around November and December, the tree will lose all its leaves, leaving only branches and ripe fruit, which looks very strange.
From April, persimmons begin to bear fruit, and after 4-5 months of care, they will be harvested. At this time, the persimmons are orange-yellow, not fully ripe but already crispy and sweet. Customers can buy them to eat fresh or let them turn orange-red to make a delicious wind-dried persimmon dish.
The yellow and red persimmons hanging from the branches become an ideal backdrop for taking photos, attracting tourists to Moc Chau in the last months of the year.
On the road from Nong Truong town to Tan Lap commune, there are many persimmon gardens full of fruit, serving tourists to visit and take photos in Ban On and Pa Khen sub-areas... Currently, the entrance fee to the persimmon garden ranges from 20,000 VND to 30,000 VND/person, the fruit picked will be calculated separately by kg. However, there are also some gardens that do not charge an entrance fee, only charging for the persimmons that customers have purchased.
The special beauty of the Northwest mountains and forests attracts many tourists to visit and capture impressive moments.
"The persimmon season is at its most beautiful, so my friends and I drove to this area to visit. Looking at the beauty of Moc Chau's ripe persimmon season, looking at the red ripe persimmons on the quiet trees, I feel so peaceful, forgetting all the hustle and bustle of reality," shared Ms. Mai Trang from Hanoi.
“The rose garden is very large and poetic. Other than the word “beautiful”, I don’t know how to fully describe my feelings,” said Diep Chi (from Son La).
The girl let her soul wander into the poetic rose garden in the middle of the Northwest mountains and forests.
The rose garden is covered with rows of fruit-laden trees, located on a wild hillside, creating an impressive natural landscape.
