The Story of the Paper Bridge
Aug 10, 2025
In the mountainous region of Cao Bằng, where steep valleys cut deep gorges between towering peaks, there once stood a village called Thung Lũng Sâu—the Deep Valley. The village was home to hardworking farmers and craftspeople who had lived peacefully for generations, growing rice on terraced hillsides and raising livestock in the valley below.
The village’s only connection to the outside world was a narrow stone bridge that spanned a deep ravine. For over a hundred years, this bridge had carried villagers, their animals, and their goods to the markets in neighboring towns. It was their lifeline to the rest of the world.
