Before I continue to post my photos in my recent trip in North European and Bangkok. I would like to present a wonderful image from my native country in an other panaroma.
I hope you like it as well as my photo for this ledendary sea destination.
-------------------------

The travelers easily agreed with the media that the name Lang Co derives from Lăng Cô (A Miss’ Tomb) or Làng Cò (Village of storks).
Lang Co still has the ruined complex that the Nguyen Dynasty has built for their kings to enjoy the scenic landscape. Also we could find some trace of the French here and there, including in the modern history. So the best interpretation is L’Ancu, as the French called its original name An Cư (Living Peacefully).

Actually, Lang Co Peninsula is a famous area with imposing scenery, mountains and forests, clear blue sea and soft, white sand adjoin each other that many travelers to Vietnam in the past have missed the chance to view this hidden beauty. Now, it became a famous resort which is styled to reminiscent of an old Vietnamese village with native wood and rattan. Lang Co reflects the real image of Vietnam with its warm hospitality, rich culture and unique tastes. Overlooking to the ocean through its long private beach, Lang Co resort offers uncompromising vistas and relaxation.

Recently, all traffic getting through the center of Vietnam has to take the 500m-high Sea&Cloud Pass and running across the 7km-stretch of sand of Lang Co. On 6-5-2005, the Hai Van 12km-Tunnel — with 6.3km main tunnel, 6.3km parallel evacuation tunnel and 1.9km ventilation system —has been opened for traffic. Instead of traveling up and down the 20km Hai Van Pass, it now only takes less than 10 minutes to cut through the Sea-n-Cloud Mountain Range. In other words, Lang Co is just 30-driving minutes from Danang, the 3rd International Airport of Vietnam.

A beautiful place to view.
I wish the text be changed rather than being repeated (copied) many times and we ran into something we already read from your previous notes more than once.
Thanks.

Nice one Huy, this looks like a painting. Such a lovely scene and with great colours. Well shown, thank you.

Wonderful panoramic view Huy, compliments, a very well done shot.. I like a lot the coloured village on the beach against the blue dominant of the rest..amazing effect!!

Merci cher ami de ce bon moment

Hello Huy. Yes this is a great shot. You would think with that smooth of water you would have more reflections. But it's still an excellent shot. Good one Huy!

Hi Huy,
nice picture of your country, beach and mountains, I think that I would appreciate this place.
Good light and colors, good panoramic format.
Maybe you could include more the pillars on the right in the composition.

Hi Huy

A superb land & seascape, with good color, okay sharpness, & wonderful lighting. I like the panoramic format, which suits perfectly!

Nice landscape. Good perspective showing us both the village and the mountains in the background. Maybe less brightness would help in obtaining an even better result.
But well done anyway!
