A number of tour operators have organized trips which facilitate individuals planting trees upon traveling in Hoi An City, located in the central Vietnamese province of Quang Nam, to fight climate change.
In mid-December, a group of 100 tourists went on a tour in Hoi An which included cycling in the countryside, a marathon, and a visit to Bay Mau coconut forest in Cam Thanh Commune.
When in Cam Thanh, each tourist planted a small tree, which had been donated by local travel firms and people.

Hanoi (VNA) - Dishes not only demonstrate the skillfulness and resourcefulness of a
homemaker and special features of each locality, but also reflect the cultural identity of each nation. A country with
tropical agriculture, Vietnam is home to thousands of
unique farm produce that serve as ingredients for a myriad of dishes.
The Eastern land, as Hai Duong was formerly called, has long been famous for its specialities. Once coming here, visitors will never fail to buy Ke Sat dry pancake, Thanh Ha lychee, and especially “banh dau xanh” (mung bean cake) and “banh gai” (glutinous rice cake dyed black with a concoction of pinnate leave) of Ninh Giang township as present for their relatives back home. Those presents themselves can tell tourists about the land they have just visited and the skillfulness of local people since the specialities illustrate this land’s unique cultural identity that can be found nowhere else in Vietnam
