Location: Ba Om Pond (also called Ao Vuong)
lies in Nguyet Hoa Village, Chau Thanh District, Tra Vinh Province.
Characteristics: The pond consists of limpid and calm water surrounded
with sand dunes. The air around the pool is healthy and fresh.
The pool, covering an approximate area of 10ha, lies along the National Highway
53, 7km southwest of Tra Vinh. The pond is 500m in length and 300m in width and
its water is always tranquil, clear and blue. It is surrounded by hillocks and
many old trees of sao and dau whose roots emerge on the ground and form numerous
odd shapes that create a unique beauty. The atmosphere is cool and pure all the
year round. In the afternoon, flocks of birds perch on the trees and make this
area exciting and noisy.
Ba Om Pond is an ideal tourist and relaxing site in Tra Vinh. When coming here,
visitors not only contemplate the beauty of the Pond and the old trees, but also
visit the ancient Khmer Ang Pagoda, which is classified as a national historical
and cultural relic, and obtain knowledge about the culture of the Khmer people.
It is certain that you will hear of an extraordinary legend about a Khmer woman
called Om, who created the Pond in a competition with the Khmer men for women to
gain the right of selecting husbands for them.
