關於Hà Tĩnh
Hà Tĩnh is a province of quiet coastal margins and green river valleys, known as the birthland of some of Việt Nam's greatest poets and thinkers — the literary spirit lingers in the mist.
The coast unfolds in long beaches and fishing hamlets; inland, the Ngàn Phố river winds through Vũ Quang forest, and Hương Tích Pagoda sits high among stone cliffs, its ancient architecture speaking of centuries passed.
