The program was announced at a press conference held by the provincial Department of Tourism on Monday afternoon.

Trinh Hang, director of the tourism department, told the press briefing that tourism has been the locomotive of the province’s economic growth.

The southern province launched the Summer Impression program last year, making it an annual tourism promotion drive to offer local residents and visitors fun-filled and unforgettable experiences in the summertime, the official said.

This year, the Summer Impression program is scheduled to take place from July 8 to 23 at the Ho Tram Beach area, located in Xuyen Moc District.

Who Is Anton Zeilinger – One Of The Three Nobel Winner Of Quantum Physics?

Image
Photo: Wikipedia Anton Zeilinger is a professor of physics at the University of Vienna and a Senior Scientist at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. His research group has demonstrated a phenomenon called quantum teleportation, which makes it possible to move a quantum state from one particle to one at a distance. For Anders Irbäck, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics, “It has become increasingly clear that a new kind of quantum technology is emerging. We can see that the laureates’ work with entangled states is of great importance, even beyond the fundamental questions about the interpretation of quantum mechanics“. Together with Anton Zeilinger, John Clauser and Alain Aspect were also awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science“.

Traditional house of the Nung in Lao Cai

From the center of Si Ma Cai district, tourists travel about 3 km to Nan San commune to contemplate the picturesque scenes of terraced fields in a lush valley and the ancient earthen houses of the Nung people, which have stood for several dozen years to a hundred years.  Then Xuan Van, a local, says that before building a new house, the Nung people must choose a place that support production and living conditions.  “According to the Nung’s custom, the direction of the main door must suit the age of the house’s owner. We choose an appropriate day and hour to break the ground. At a chosen time, we put a mould used to make earthen walls on the land and butcher a chicken and a pig to inform the land spirits of our construction. I say: ‘Today is a good day. My surname is Then. I will break the ground to build a house. I pray the land...
