The way to An Ma lake

An Ma Lake is located in Kim Thuy Commune, Le Thuy District, Quang Binh Province. Near the legendary Ho Chi Minh Road. From Dong Hoi City to the Lake is about 50 km. After going on Ho Chi Minh Road, you will turn right about 500m to reach An Ma Dam. From here you can see the whole view of the lake.

From the center of Le Thuy district, about 30km to the Southwest.

Although the access road is currently spontaneous, you can drive a car over An Ma dam to see Ha Long Bay in Quang Binh.

An Ma is known as an irrigation lake with a capacity of up to 64m3, built by Quang Binh people since 1999. Not only becoming a “friend” of everyone here, An Ma lake also becomes a “savior” when preventing large floods. More than that, An Ma dam also has the task of adding water to Kien Giang river, irrigating rice flowers to grow in the summer.

The lake water in the summer days is clear, the slight ripples of the water seem to drift along with the wind. Tourists coming here can enjoy the fresh, peaceful, gentle air of An Ma Lake. To fully enjoy the lake space, you can rent a boat and feel all the romantic, poetic, and fairy-tale beauty of An Ma.

In addition to enjoying the scenery on a boat, tourists can also see the “indifferent” appearance of An Ma mountain exposed on three adjacent hills. Layer upon layer of pine trees overlap like a giant green carpet of stunning beauty.

It is not by chance that An Ma Lake is likened to “Ha Long Bay of Le Thuy”. On the lake there are about 26 large and small islands, with green trees like small islands, somewhat romanticizing the beauty of this place.

Story of An Ma Lake

The story of An Ma reservoir has existed since ancient times. The story is associated with the historical king – Ham Nghi. There is a folk rumor that when passing through this area, King Ham Nghi dropped many treasures here to reduce the burden on his trip to the North to fight the French.

The place where the king dropped the treasure was an abyss, also known as the Abyss. This is where two branches of the Kien Giang River meet, facing each other are high mountains and cliffs, creating a stronger flow than other places and during flood season, creating an abyss.

The Le Thuy area and a part of Quang Ninh are considered as a “giant pan”. Because in the rainy season, water from the Kien Giang River flows down, condenses and becomes a flood. At that time, the people here lived very miserably, their only dream at that time was how to control that flood. However, due to the impact of war and poverty, everything could not be realized at that time.

But not disappointing the people, until the end of the 20th century, an idea of ​​building a dam to supply water for agricultural production was implemented. And in 1999, An Ma lake was started to block Rao Con river and help people store water in the rainy season. Thanks to An Ma dam, the lives of Quang Binh people have been somewhat improved and developed significantly.
