Trung Son – A New Destination on the Community Tourism Discovery Journey

Located about a 90-minute drive from the center of Phu Tho Province, Trung Son Commune is opening up an attractive discovery journey for tourists who love authentic experiences and pristine beauty. Winding roads through lush green forests, crystal-clear lakes, majestic landscapes, and a rich cultural identity are creating a unique pull for this land.

Gentle mountain passes, expansive nature, well-preserved indigenous culture, and traditional flavors present in daily life are gradually defining Trung Son’s image as a “Destination of Love” — the message that the Party Committee, local authorities, and residents of this highland commune are striving toward.

Ngoi Gianh Lake, featuring hundreds of hectares of water surface, boasts cool, green natural scenery that remains remarkably pristine and charming.

The highlight of Trung Son is its unique indigenous culture and the dense concentration of the Muong community, where many distinct cultural values are still preserved.

A major strength in attracting visitors to Trung Son is its extensive system of natural lakes with picturesque scenery, ideal for camping, boating, fishing, and exploring the surrounding areas of Ngoi Gianh Lake. Additionally, the lakeside areas offer potential for building infrastructure to support green tourism development.

Inaugurated in late 2021, Ngoi Gianh Lake — featuring a main gravity concrete dam over 240 meters long, a maximum height exceeding 70 meters, and a total investment of 1,279 billion VND — is a major irrigation project in the province that holds significant tourism potential with its majestic beauty.

Thousands of hectares of cinnamon have turned Trung Son into a cinnamon capital — a valuable medicinal plant that creates strong potential for tourism, resort development, and socio-economic growth.

Featuring a vast water surface, abundant fishery potential, and poetic scenery, Trung Son enjoys great opportunities to develop its economy alongside community tourism.

Majestic clouds and mountains blend into the early morning mist with magical beauty along inter-commune roads, creating an expansive, captivating landscape that charms visitors.

The large water area along with a clean, stable water supply presents an opportunity for Trung Son to strongly develop aquaculture, including highly profitable cage fish farming that draws tourists to experience raft-life activities, scenic views, and highland cuisine.

“With the slogan “Trung Son - Destination of Love”, the Party Committee, authorities, and ethnic communities of Trung Son Commune are aiming for green economic and community tourism development based on existing potentials and advantages. We possess all the necessary conditions and unique cultural values to turn Trung Son into a destination of love in the near future. Our hope is for investors to come and join hands with the locality to convert these advantages into resources and momentum for a breakthrough in local tourism development,” emphasized Party Committee Secretary Comrade Dinh Hai Nam regarding Trung Son’s tourism development future.
