In addition to its famed pristine beauty, Tra Su Melaleuca Forest is a place that preserves the quintessential values of flooded forests, a place filled with affection for the Southwest's land and people. In addition, Tra Su is regarded as a colossal "ecological library" because it is the "only" place where southern forest land from the early decades of the 19th century to the present day has been preserved.
It is the "similarities" described by author Doan Gioi that resonate with the "cinematic" natural beauty that cannot be replicated elsewhere. Consequently, Tra Su was honoured to be selected as the "expensive" scene, the most epic segment for the film "Southern Forest Land" directed by Quang Dung.

The nostalgic recreation is exceptionally lovely.
The melody reverberates on the skin as though it contains so much melancholy and affection that it wishes to convey a message to this land.

Who travels to the Southland?
Please send me a message of affection and love."

Tra Su begins filming with an incredibly impressive scene, recreating the "floating market" of the 1920s Mekong Delta. Based on the available landscape elements to the film crew. Build a floating market on the river with more than 50 boats and boats filled with goods, so sophisticated that there is a "stick tree" hanging from the bow of each boat instead of a sign. The river is teeming with activity, and on both banks are shops with signs that have been skillfully hand-painted.

Director Quang Dung reported: "I received support from Tra Su Tourist Area to stop operating in that scene and let me edit according to the filming crew's wishes." This is a difficult and heavy scene that plays a significant role in the development of the film, involving the characters of An, Co, Xinh, Tieu, Tu Mam, Ba Phi, and Tu U.
In addition to being an endless source of creative inspiration for talented exam musicians, Tra Su once more dons nostalgic hues. Now, Tra Su is proud to "play the role" of the bridge between history and the present, transforming the literary scenes in the novel into immortal, heart-rending cinematic scenes.

Why was Tra Su selected as the filming location for "Southern Forest Land?"
"Southern Forest Land" is a film that, in addition to its enormous narrative capacity, vividly depicts the vivid nature of the majestic, towering flooded Melaleuca forest land, reaching forward to greet the sun and silently establishing deep roots. like the sincere qualities, unchanging beauty, and perseverance of skilled workers.
Reflecting the vast social landscape of the time, the background depicts the destinies and lives of people who make a living, wander, struggle, and experience ups and downs with distinct personality traits: love of work, love of nature, compassion, appreciation of love, and a fiercely patriotic heart.

The tranquil river scene makes people's hearts flutter, and the Tra Su cajuput forest is as enchanted and lush as any ancient watercolour. Tra Su is mentioned in the following passage by Doan Gioi: "In the early morning, the forest is very quiet. Even though there was no wind, the air was still cool. The coolness of the river and canal steam, the warmth of the soil and the oxygen exhaled by the herbs at dawn, the clarity of the light, and the iridescent ripple on the cajuput flower heads cause us to look at something. It also has the appearance of being coated with glass."
"Fate" has been demonstrated by the similarities between literature and reality; these similarities will reappear in the film Southern Forest Land. This is also the reason why film buffs and art lovers are encouraged to visit Tra Su to experience and appreciate the natural beauty of this area.
