Forest bathing as a medicine, food for the spirit. How far, fast or slow is not something to be achieved. We do not aim to find or expect anything, but simply be in harmony with nature. Bathing in the forest is not to achieve anything, bathing in the forest to get rid of the sorrows and pain in the heart, but it is the removal of a few things that help us achieve more good things.

To get here, we follow the road to the 37-apartment area. It's also the only way to get here. Going through the area of 37 households, you will pass through the grassy hill of bamboo shoots, the dirt road will lead you into the forest. That dirt road is quite steep and narrow. You can only get here by motorbike or off-road cars with you. Riding on off-road vehicles and sightseeing on both sides of the road is also an interesting experience.

Then going around collecting firewood and collecting water from the spring is a priority. And then it was an unforgettable night for us. In the midst of the vast expanse of nature, we heard nothing but the sound of wind and insects. Although the nights were very cold, we had a great time by the fire, eating hot chicken porridge, roasted clams and drinking some wine. After dinner, we sat around a warm fire, ate roasted corn and chatted before going to bed. I got excited and set my alarm for 6 a.m. And I wasn't disappointed. It's a great place to watch both sunrise and sunset. After the warm rays of the sun shone everywhere, we waded the SUP paddle stream. With its calm water surface and large natural pools, that stream is a great place for SUP boating. Not to mention the forest on both sides of the stream makes this place more beautiful. We then enjoyed a delicious breakfast, hot cup of coffee and great morning air before cleaning everything up and heading home. What could be better than spending time with friends and family at this beautiful campsite. Chill with cool air, beautiful nature and lots of interesting activities. In the evening, sit by the warm fire, enjoy delicious food and tell each other stories. WOW there's so much great about this campsite isn't it?
