Wandering on the romantic street of Han Mac Tu
Han Mac Tu was a pioneer of modern Vietnamese romantic poetry. He was a great journalist and an extraordinary poet in Vietnam. His poetry is so good that many commentators can't distinguish between reality and imagination, some of them are still taught in the literature coursebook of Vietnam. Unfortunately, he suffered from leprosy and left this world when he was only 28. During his time of treatment, he put all his thoughts, and pain into his work, which is still preserved to this day and brings tears to the eyes of his most sincere readers. "Here the Vi Da Village" is one of his most loved creations writing about the love of his home, his people, and his life. This village is located on the outskirts of Hue City, only 15km from Thuan An beach, which could be a recommendation for romanticists.
