The picturesque river section filled with rafts attracts camping tourists in Hoa Binh.

(Dan Tri) - The Boi River section passing through Sao Bay commune has crystal clear water that can be seen all the way to the bottom. On both sides are majestic mountains. Locals set up rafts for camping for tourists to rent and experience.

Na Bo Hamlet, Sao Bay Commune, Kim Boi District ( Hoa Binh ), has recently become famous as a rural tourist destination attracting many tourists to visit and experience every weekend.

This Muong village attracts tourists because the Boi River flowing through here has a beautiful landscape, the river water is clear enough to see the bottom, and both sides are majestic mountains. Taking advantage of this beautiful scenery, the locals have built many camping rafts for tourists to rent and experience when they come here.

A representative of the River Country Community Tourism Service Cooperative (Na Bo hamlet, Sao Bay commune) said that the cooperative has 130 camping rafts made by local people to serve tourists. The rafts are all made from bamboo, reed, and have roofs, all materials are natural and available locally. "At first, only a few households saw the beautiful river scenery so they built rafts to experience. After that, tourists saw the beauty and flocked to rent rafts to anchor in the middle of the river to cool off and eat on the rafts in the hot summer. Since then, people have made dozens of rafts to serve tourists," said a representative of the River Country Community Tourism Service Cooperative.

The raft camping in Na Bo hamlet attracts the most tourists during the 3 summer months. Every day, thousands of tourists flock here to sightsee and experience raft camping on the river. During the remaining months of the year, there are fewer tourists, mainly crowded on the 2 weekends.

The price to rent a raft for a trip on the Boi River is 300,000-500,000 VND. Local people divide themselves into groups, then welcome and serve guests. In addition to renting rafts, the owners also serve drinks, food, life jackets and karaoke speakers.

Seen from above, the river section filled with camping rafts is as beautiful as a watercolor painting in Muong land, captivating people's hearts.

Mr. Minh Hoai, a tourist from Hanoi, shared: "I come to Hoa Binh many times. This time, I had the opportunity to relax at Kim Boi hot mineral spring, so the whole family went to the Na Bo river to experience it. The scenery is truly beautiful, with beautiful mountains and rivers, plus the rafts made of bamboo and roofed with palm leaves, quite unique, rarely found anywhere else in Vietnam."

It is known that the tourism service of renting camping rafts in Na Bo hamlet has flourished for more than 2 years now. Local people initially did it spontaneously, then were guided by authorities and functional agencies of Hoa Binh province to operate in accordance with regulations. "In normal weather, people are allowed to serve tourists and must have life jackets and protective gear to ensure safety when taking rafts out into the middle of deep rivers. On stormy days when floodwaters come, people must stop receiving guests and anchor rafts in the right place to ensure disaster prevention," said a representative of Sao Bay commune.
