At that time, there was a flood in the world, the fairy used a gourd pot to absorb water to save the people, so she missed the time to return to Thien Dinh. In the end, 8 fairies turned into 8 mountains to keep the peace for Vu Tuyen district.

The mysteries of the "heavenly lake" - Bat Tien Thien Tri

The water in the lake does not have any source of contact with the ground.

In addition to the beautiful scenery, Bat Tien Thien Tri also has many other interesting places. Of which the most curious is the only "lonely mountain" in the cluster of 8 Bat Tien mountains, standing separately without sticking to each other.

It is known that the water in the lake does not have any source of contact with the ground, but not because of that, it dries up in the hot season or rises when it rains.

The mountain clusters around the lake are all covered with green trees, extremely lush flowers, but a strange thing is that on the lake surface, there are never leaves or flowers that fall and settle, or they may sink. The water is so fast that people can't detect it. Some information suggests that because the lake is located between the mountains, there is a strong wind blowing continuously, whereby the leaves and flowers that have just fallen will be blown away, not completely falling into the lake.

Wherever there is water, there will be fish, and Bat Tien Thien Tri is no exception. There are a lot of fish in the lake, but no one has been able to fish, and over time no one wants to fish in this lake. The people here believe that the "heavenly lake" absorbs the sun and moon, so the fish also have a sense.

Over thousands of years, due to the ever-changing landscape with many puzzling mysteries of Bat Tien Thien Tri, this place has long attracted many writers and people with lofty ideals to travel and recite poetry.
