Beautiful scenery on Se San hydroelectric lake

Se San Hydroelectric Reservoir, Gia Lai, Vietnam not only provides water to irrigate thousands of hectares of rubber, coffee, and loquat trees, but also provides a rich source of aquatic products for people living in the border areas on both sides of the river. Since the construction of the hydroelectric power plant and the lake, the villagers have been no longer poor and have been living a healthy life. Now, many people, especially young people who like to go to the water to catch fish, have gradually stopped going to the forest to cut down trees and destroy forests. Indeed, the Po Co River and the Se San Hydroelectric Reservoir have given our people a more prosperous life.

The system of ecological islands connected one after another on the Se San hydroelectric reservoir (Ia Grai district, Gia Lai province, Vietnam) has created a majestic and charming river and mountain space that fascinates travelers from afar.

About 70 km west of Pleiku city, the Se San hydroelectric reservoir area in Ia O commune, Ia Grai district has many hills and mountains winding around the large lake, creating a masterpiece of "natural wonder". On the vast hydroelectric reservoir area, the high mountains have now become ecological oases standing out amidst the clear, emerald green water.

The scene of local people setting up many large, colorful nets to dry on the lake surface, waiting for nightfall to release them into the water to catch anchovies, catfish, catfish, carp, etc. creates a beautiful ink painting for Se San Hydroelectric Lake.

In order to maximize the potential of Se San 4 hydroelectric lake, Gia Lai is currently focusing resources and inviting investors to awaken the potential of this land into an impressive tourist destination. The peaceful scenery, charming mountains and rivers, along with the rustic beauty of the villages and the indigenous culture of the local residents living around the lake create a "great melody" with a unique mark that attracts tourists.
