Thac Ba Lake in Yen Bai Province makes people immediately think of Vietnam's first hydropower project. In addition to the beautiful landscape, the area along the lake is also home to many ethnic groups such as Kinh, Tay, Nung, Hmong, Dao, Phu La, Cao Lan...
It is a vast lake with more than 1,300 large and small islands covered with green forests with rich and diverse ecosystems.
Experiencing many ups and downs of history, this place still retains various vestiges of war. It is the working place of the provincial headquarters, the place of hiding, protecting our communist leaders during the years of the war of resistance against the French, against the United States to save the country.
When North Vietnam regains peace, Thac Ba Lake plays an important role in providing hydroelectric power to all the North regions.
