The colors of Ru Cha

During the September 2nd National Day holiday, Ru Cha in Hoa Chau Ward became a popular destination for local residents and visitors. The lush mangrove forest amid Tam Giang Lagoon, together with a community-based ecotourism model currently being piloted, has begun to enhance the destination’s appeal while opening up new livelihood opportunities for local residents.

Rather than simply introducing familiar destinations and famous attractions in Hue, TikTokers and Facebookers (digital content creators on TikTok and Facebook) are now offering new perspectives on the city’s tourism and people through short videos and candid reviews of their experiences. This approach is bringing Hue to life on social media while giving travelers from around the world more interesting information to inspire their own experiences in the city.

Ru Cha mangrove forest stands quietly like a sentinel guarding Tam Giang - Cau Hai lagoon system. Through countless seasons of storms and heavy rains, the ancient Cha trees have remained firmly rooted in the soil, embracing the surrounding villages, blocking waves, trapping sediment, and sustaining the unique ecosystem of the lower reaches of the Perfume River.

The highland district of A Luoi, Hue City, boasts the pristine beauty of the Truong Son mountains and forests, with the white cascade of the A Nor Waterfall standing out amid endless stretches of green. What draws visitors here is not only the natural scenery, but also the distinctive cultural values of the Ta Oi and Pa Co ethnic communities.

Following the Ban Soc Ceremony of the Nguyen Dynasty, held on the very first day of 2026, Hue officially kicked off its year-long Hue Festival celebrations.
