Trip to Dinh Que

Hi everyone, I'm Khanh. Today I will take to you a place 140km from Danang located in the southern region. The Dinh Que peak is located in Tay Giang district, 20 km away from the district's centre. The peak has a height of 1369 meters all year round, is always covered in clouds and fog, so the air is always cool on hot summer days.

During a hot summer in 2017, I went on an outing with 19 of my friends, this was a big outing with everyone, plus there were many problems for my group. We split up the way and thought and stopped at some wild spots in Dong Giang because it was bad weather and a long-distance, difficult road.

After stopping at the Ba Commune, Dong Giang Tea Hill to take photos, we headed to Prao, the heart of Dong Giang district, to have a rest and lunch. After a nap, we headed to Dong Giang, which is called the Gate of Heaven. It is located in a commune, there is a beautiful natural stone gate within. In addition to the caves and waterfalls inside, we were also forced to leave due to time constraints and weather conditions, so we made our way to Dinh Que Peak.

During hot summer days, the land will be soaked in heavy showers and thunderstorms. The road from Dong Giang to the top of cinnamon was very difficult. It rained quite heavily. A landslide also occurred near Dinh Que due to heavy rain. When the phone signal wasn't working and there were no houses on the road, we were very scared.

Once we reached Dinh Que, it had begun to rain again, so we prepared food and cooked over the fire as we enjoyed chatting.

Actually, I've got an appointment with a brother in my group who'll be shooting the Mikiway galaxy. It was May, so the Milkyway rises at around 2 am. In the morning, my friend and I took a picture of the starry Dinh Que cottage with the sparkling galaxy. Since it was my first time photographing astronomy, I was so excited.

Having traveled a long way, we had to rest to watch the sunset the next day. The sunrise with clouds hovering under the mountains made us realize that our work was worthwhile.

After breakfast and coffee, we went to Nam Giang together. The distance from Nam Giang to Dinh Que is about 140km.

Our first stop in Nam Giang was Grang waterfall. It consists of three levels, each with a waterfall. There is wild natural scenery surrounding the waterfall. Because of the slippery surface on the second and third floors, I couldn't bring my camera to take the picture. The third level of the waterfall gave us a breathtaking view of mighty and beautiful scenery.

As soon as our 2-day 1-night trip came to an end, we continued our journey to the east and west of the country. We had an interesting and unforgettable experience.

Thanks for reading and have a good evening. See you in my next trip.
