    Dien Bien - To bring water from low to high, the Thai ethnic group has crafted special " machinery" that runs all day and night without the need for human resources.

    In localities in Dien Bien province such as: Xuan Lao commune (Muong Ang district), Chieng Dong commune (Tuan Giao district)... the image of diligent water whirlpools turning on the banks of streams has become familiar to the people. Photo: Quang Dat
    Do co so ha tang thuy loi va nguon nuoc han che, nguoi dan noi day da phat huy phuong phap lay nuoc co tu lau doi nay. Tai ban Nom, xa Chieng Dong, huyen Tuan Giao gan 50 chiec con nuoc dang ngay dem hoat dong ben dong suoi Nam Hua, dam bao nguon nuoc tuoi quy gia cho hon 13ha lua vu dong xuan.
    Due to limited irrigation infrastructure and water resources, the people here have promoted the long-standing method of collecting water. In Nom village, Chieng Dong commune, Tuan Giao district, nearly 50 water cages are operating day and night along Nam Hua stream, ensuring a valuable source of irrigation water for more than 13 hectares of winter-spring rice.
    De hoan thanh guong nuoc doi hoi nhieu cong suc, du phai lam lai sau moi mua mua lu, nhung day duoc xem la cach lam it ton kem chi phi nhat, nhung hieu qua mang lai la khong the phu nhan.
    To complete the water flow requires a lot of effort, even though it has to be re-worked after each flood season, this is considered the least cost-effective way, but the effectiveness it brings is undeniable.
    Ong Ca Van Nam - nguoi dan ban Nom – cho biet, do nguon nuoc dau nguon khong on dinh vao mua kho, guong nuoc la giai phap tuoi tieu thiet yeu. “Day la phuong phap truyen thong tu doi cha ong nhung van chung minh hieu qua cho den ngay nay” – ong Nam noi.
    Mr. Ca Van Nam - a resident of Nom village - said that due to unstable water sources in the dry season, water luuons are an essential irrigation solution. "This is a traditional method from the ancestors' generation but still proves effective to this day" - Mr. Nam said.
    De dam bao du nuoc cho dien tich canh tac lon, khong cac ho gia dinh da dau tu cong suc, dung nen ca he thong 5-6 chiec con nuoc hoat dong lien hoan.
    To ensure enough water for a large area of cultivation, households have not invested in efforts, building a system of 5-6 water cages operating continuously.
    Toan bo guong nuoc duoc che tac thu cong, tan dung toi da vat lieu tu nhien san co. Nguoi dan phai ti mi lua chon nhung cay tre, cay go tot nhat, tu truc quay chinh vung chac, den nan con duoc dan tu nua gia.
    The entire water channel is handcrafted, making the most of available natural materials. People must meticulously choose the best bamboo and wood trees, from solid main rotation axes to the bamboo and rattan weaving from the breeze.
    Hoat dong nhu nhung “co may bom” khong lo khong can nhien lieu, guong nuoc van hanh hoan toan nho suc nuoc tu nhien. De hoan thanh mot chiec con nuoc hoan chinh, can den ca chuc ngay cong lao dong.
    Operating like giant "pumps" that do not require fuel, the water flow operates entirely thanks to natural water. To complete a complete water bottle, it takes ten working days.
    Banh xe go voi hang chuc ong muc bang tre, nua duoc gan ket kheo leo, quay deu dan theo dong chay. Moi vong quay, cac ong lai muc day nuoc tu con suoi, dua len cao roi do vao he thong mang dan.
    The wooden cake with dozens of bamboo and rattan excavators is cleverly attached, rotated regularly with the flow. Each rotation, the pipes are replenished with water from the stream, taken up high and then poured into the intake system.
    Ngoai viec giup ruong luon duy tri nuoc tuoi, nhung chiec guong con la nhung diem nhan doc dao, thu hut nguoi dan va du khach den check-in chup anh.
    In addition to helping the fields maintain irrigation water, the cages are also unique highlights, attracting people and tourists to check-in and take photos.
