You start the journey by riding a bike out of the ancient town, feeling the transition from urban space to countryside: cooler air, narrower roads, slower pace of life. When you arrive at the carpentry village of Kim Bồng, you not only hear about it, but stand right in the working space, observe the craftsmen at work, understand why this profession has endured steadfastly by the river. On the Trà Nhiêu River, you sit on a bamboo boat, feeling the swaying, the slow rowing rhythm, and the surrounding coconut forest - an experiential journey that is sensory and cannot be obtained by just standing and watching.
