| Ru Cha is the only primary forest on Tam Giang Lagoon. In the local language, "rú" means forest, "chá" refers to a species of tree occupying 90% of the area in the mangrove area. The tree has shallow roots, acting as a front line, shielding the mainland in front of Thuan An beach. (Photo: Bao Moi) |
 |
| During the autumn, the green colors turn into brilliantly yellow, creating an unforgettable natural masterpiece. The forest attracts many young people as a famous ecotourism site and is an inspiration for photographers nationwide. (Photo: Bao Moi) |

| Only about 15 km from the city center, Ru Cha is an attractive rendezvous for tourists when coming to the ancient capital. Starting from the center of Hue, you can drive along Highway 49 towards Thuan An sea, turn left over Tam Giang bridge, then continue driving in the direction to Thao Long. (Photo: Bao Moi) |
 |
| From afar, visitors can easily admire the wild forest. The best time to visit the forest is from February to October. At this time, the whole forest changes from green to yellow colors. With just heavy rain or strong winds, the leaves will fall into the water, creating a dreamy yellow carpet. (Photo: Bao Moi) |
 |
| Not only is a tourist attraction, Ru Cha also creates conditions for local people to grow aquaculture. Previously, entering the forest was not easy. Tourists had to wade in the water and take boats. Today, you can drive a motorbike or rent a small boat from the local people to enjoy the forest. (Photo: Bao Moi) |
