The Legend of the Golden Turtle
Jul 11, 2025
In the misty mountains and peaceful valleys of ancient Vietnam, during a time when the land suffered under the oppression of foreign invaders, there lived a humble fisherman named Le Loi. He dwelt in a simple village beside the shores of Luc Thuy Lake, earning his modest living by casting nets into the calm waters and sharing his catch with neighbors in need.
Le Loi was known throughout his village not for wealth or power, but for his kind heart, his wisdom in settling disputes, and his deep love for his homeland. When villagers came to him with problems, he would listen patiently and offer counsel that was always fair and thoughtful. When families struggled to feed their children, he would quietly leave fish at their doorsteps without seeking credit or recognition.
