• The Legend of Ba Den Mountain Jul 24, 2025

  

  In the ancient province of Tay Ninh, where the Cambodian border meets the Vietnamese heartland, there rises a solitary peak known as Ba Den Mountain—the Black Lady Mountain. Its dark silhouette against the sky has watched over the surrounding plains for countless generations, and within its shadows lies one of Vietnam’s most poignant love stories.

  Long ago, during the time when the Khmer and Vietnamese kingdoms often clashed along their borders, there lived a young woman named Huong whose beauty was renowned throughout the region. Her hair flowed like black silk, her eyes sparkled like stars reflected in still water, and her gentle nature drew people to her like flowers turning toward the sun.
