peaceful place

I love Tam Giang lagoon, I love its beautiful landscape, poor but friendly local people, I love the children here, Tam Giang means Three river, if you are a backpacker with a scooter, you should driver in 49B national road to take a look to people life, they don't live at a house, they live in a boat, The children here don't go to school, no candy, no books, nothing You should visit Thanh Duyen pagoda which you can have an overview of Tam Giang lagoon

Nice lagoon with many fishing and farming activities and great sunsets
This is a great lagoon framed by the mountains on the west and a strip of land separating it from the ocean. It is surrounded by little villages of fishermen and farmers. There are many rice ponds and small fishing boats, eel traps, oysters bed. There are a few good restaurants around.

Relaxing and interesting trip
I was on a motorbike tour to tam giang lagoon. Upon reaching one part of the lagoon, I took a boat to a restaurant in the middle of the lagoon. Fresh seafood was served and the food was simple but delicious. I could relax or take a nap on the bamboo floor on the mats provided on the restaurant on stilts. I took a boat to go around the lagoon after that and the sunset was beautiful. I opted for homestay at a village at tam giang lagoon and I was given the option to go frog catching at night with the kids or wake up 3am to follow the fishermen out to sea. I was too tired so I opt that out and slept after late dinner to woke up 5am to visit the fish market. The sunrise was breath taking with beautiful changing colours in the sky and as the lagoon water is shallow, I could walk to the boats nearby which are coming in with fresh catch of the day. As I walked around, I could see prawns swimming in the water and clams hidden in the sand under my feet. The lagoon gets busier as the sun goes higher as more boats come back from the big boats further away and people started walking on the lagoon to the boats to buy seafood or fishermen were pulling their small boats or washing their nets around me. After the market, I visited a local village eating place for breakfast and had some noodles and coffee. It's really good. I could do some farming at the vegetable plot and go around the village on the motorbike in the afternoon. It's a good 2days away from the city and it's a good place for those who wanted to have a taste of the local village life. It's a beautiful place for those who are interested in photography too. It's been a good trip for me.
