consideration, donates to the local economy, and

teaches the travelers something about the nature

and culture of the area in which they are located

Activities on an ecotour

Mr Green: You’re right Ecotourists are

interested in watching wildlife without destroying nature

(Female voice): So ecotourism is

environment-friendly, isn’t it?

Mr Green: Yes and no Many tourists have the

intention of protecting wildlife, but many of their activities cause harm to the environment without their awareness

(Female voice): This means they don’t know

they’re harming wildlife?

Mr Green: No Probably not

c)

(Female voice): I don’t quite understand Why

don’t they know they’re harming wildlife?

Mr Green: Let me give you an example To

watch the whales or dolphins, people travel in boats The noise from the engines of these boats disturbs these animals, and they may get stressed or eat less

(Female voice): I see But Mr Green, when people

watch the birds, they don’t make any noise at all!

Mr Green: Right But they take photographs

and the strong light from the flashes frightens the birds

(Male voice): How about the effects on flowers

and trees, Mr Green?

Mr Green: You mean the vegetation Yes,

tourists usually walk on the same path over time, and this may harm the ground cover – I mean the grass or wild plants that cover and protect the soil

(Female voice): What happens then?

(Male voice): Without this cover, the soil is

washed away when there are heavy rains Now, let’s talk about the fires

Give suggested answers:

- Buying objects made from endangered species

(ivory, coral, seashells, etc) may encourage illegal hunting or killing of these species

- Littering might pollute the environment

- Feeding animals may change their eating habits

and cause their unhealthy dependency on men’s source of food

- Touching animals can transmit diseases to them,

which are already in danger

- Boating might cause soil erosion

The International Ecotourism Society defines Ecotourism as: "responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the welfare of local people"

The Australian Commission on National Ecotourism Strategy calls it: based tourism that involves education and interpretation of the natural environment and is managed to be ecologically sustainable"

"nature-Features

1) Involves travel to natural destinations These destinations are often

remote areas, whether inhabited or uninhabited, and are usually under some kind of environmental protection at the national, international, communal or private level

2) Minimizes Impact Tourism causes damage Ecotourism strives to

minimize the adverse affects of hotels, trails, and other infrastructure by using either recycled materials or plentifully available local building materials, renewable sources of energy, recycling and safe disposal of waste and garbage, and environmentally and culturally sensitive architectural design Minimization of impact also requires that the

Trang 19

numbers and mode of behavior of tourists be regulated to ensure limited damage to the ecosystem

3) Builds environmental awareness Ecotourism means education, for both

tourists and residents of nearby communities Well before departure tour operators should supply travelers with reading material about the country, environment and local people, as well as a code of conduct for both the traveler and the industry itself This information helps prepare the tourist

as The Ecotourism Societies guidelines state"to learn about the places and peoples visited" and "to minimize their negative impacts while visiting sensitive environments and cultures" Essential to good ecotourism are well-trained, multilingual naturalist guides with skills in natural and cultural history, environmental interpretation, ethical principles and effective communication Ecotourism projects should also help educate members of the surrounding community, schoolchildren and the broader public in the host country To do so they must offer greatly reduced entrance and lodge fees for nationals and free educational trips for local students and those living near the tourist attraction

4) Provides direct financial benefits for conservation: Ecotourism helps raise funds for environmental protection, research and education through a variety of mechanisms, including park entrance fees, tour company, hotel, airline and airport taxes and voluntary contributions

5) Provides financial benefits and empowerment for local people: National Parks and other conservation areas will only survive if there are "happy people" around their perimeters The local community must be involved with and receive income and other tangible benefits(potable water, roads, health clinics, etc.) from the conservation area and it's tourist facilities Campsites, lodges, guide services, restaurants and other concessions should be run by or in partnership with communities surrounding a park or other tourist destination More importantly, if Ecotourism is to be viewed

as a tool for rural development, it must also help shift economic and political control to the local community, village, cooperative, or entrepreneur This is the most difficult and time-consuming principle in the economic equation and the one that foreign operators and "partners" most often let fall through the cracks or that they follow only partially or formally

Trang 20

6) Respects local culture: Ecotourism is not only "greener" but also less culturally intrusive and exploitative than conventional tourism Whereas prostitution, black markets and drugs often are by-products of mass tourism, ecotourism strives to be culturally respectful and have a minimal effect on both the natural environment and the human population of a host country This is not easy, especially since ecotourism often involves travel

to remote areas where small and isolate communities have had little experience interacting with foreigners And like conventional tourism, ecotourism involves an unequal relationship of power between the visitor and the host and a commodification of the relationship through exchange

of money Part of being a responsible ecotourist is learning beforehand about the local customs, respecting dress codes and other social norms and not intruding on the community unless either invited or as part of a well organized tour

the most significant temple in both Ha Noi and Viet Nam It is representative of Confucian ways of thought and behavior, and is a historical and cultural relic

In Canh Tuat Year (1070), King Ly Thanh Tong erected several important monuments, including the Temple of Literature In 1076, Vietnam's first university, Quoc Tu (National University), was established under the direction

of King Ly Nhan Tong near Van Mieu for the purpose of instructing the children of Mandarins, the aristocrats, and the brightest commoners During its more than 700 years of instruction (1076-1779), Quoc Tu Giam educated thousands of talented men for Vietnam

After more than 900 years of existence, repairs and renovations, Quoc Tu Giam is still an example of well-preserved traditional Vietnamese architecture Also preserved within these confines are valued relics representing the Millenary civilization, such as stelae with inscriptions of the names of distinguished scholars, the Well of Heavenly Clarity (Thien Quang Tinh), the pavilion in dedication of the Constellation of Literature (Khue Van Cac), the statue of Confucius, the Great House of Ceremonies, the ancient wall, kowtow portico and the sanctuary, the stone dragons, and the ink stone stands

Particularly impressive is the collection of 82 stone stelae which rest upon large stone tortoises They were created between 1484 and 1780 and are engraved with the names, places of birth and achievements of the 1,306 doctor laureates that received their degrees during this time span These stelae were erected to encourage learning and bestow honor on the talented men who assisted the Kings in defending the country

Vietnamese millionth-generation ancestor) All Vietnamese people are proud

of it and remember to celebrate Gi ỗ Tổ Hùng Vương every 10th day of 3rd

lunar month here

Chua Huong (Perfume pagoda) in Ha Tay

Chua Huong (Perfume pagoda) is located in Huong son (Perfume mountain)

70 km southwest of Hanoi Chua Huong is not one temple but a cluster of temples and shrines in the general vicinity of Huong son The pagoda(s) are located in My Duc hamlet in the province of Ha Tay According to the book,

Huong Son Thien Tru Pha, Huong Tich temple was built during the reign of Le

Chinh Hoa (1680-1705), by a monk who happened on the site on his way to search for enlightenment Other shrines and temples were later built in this area to take advantage of the beautiful scenery in this area

Perfume pagoda has a long history in Vietnamese literature This temple, its name, has been a theme of many songs, topic of poetry, used in literary works

as well as backdrops for paintings The uniqueness of Huong Son is that the mountains, river and forest appears like an oasis for buddhists in the middle of the great plains of northern Vietnam This location truly incorporates all the elements of beauty that is often used in Eastern philosophy and arts

Ben Thanh market in Ho Chi Minh City

Ben Thanh market has long been one of Saigon's most famous landmark The market has been in existence since the French occupation The original market was located on the shores of Ben Nghe river by old fort Gia Dinh Its proximity

to the fort and the river where merchants and soldiers would land was reason for its name (Ben meaning pier or port and Thanh meaning fort) In 1859, when the French invaded Saigon and overtook fort Gia Dinh, Ben Thanh Market was destroyed It was rebuilt shortly thereafter and remained standing until it was moved to its present location in 1899

Built on a landfill of what was once a swamp named Bo Ret (Marais Boresse), the new Ben Thanh Market is located in the center of the city Under the

Trang 27

French government, the area around Ben Thanh Market was called Cu Nhac circle (Rond point Cuniac), named after Mr Cuniac, the person who proposed filling the swamp to create this area The area was later renamed Cong truong Dien Hong

Thap Ba (The Ponagar towers) in Nha Trang

Thap Ba (The Ponagar towers) once stood at the entrance of Cai river, where the river meets the ocean The towers stood in isolation on a rock foundation, but over many years the towers and the land it stands on became part of the land mass as the river changed its flows

Today, the tower is north of the river and the rock formation it stood on became known as nui Cu Lao or Mount Cu Lao The town of Vinh Phuoc at the base of the mountain was once a fishing village, known as Xom Chai and Xom Bong
