Bau Sung is one fresh water swamp with the width of about 70ha, located in 4 hamlets of Phu Long, Hoa Da, Phu Hoa and Giai Son in An My commune, Tuy An district. Thanks to the all-year-round water source, besides the local specialties of “diec” fish and “ro” fish, in the swamp, there are also various types of snails, crabs, morning glory and particularly water lily flowers, which are picked up then rolled to display for sale at markets. The stem of water lily flowers is sliced to wipe out the outer surface, and then cut in slices, processed into the crispy, sweet and sour water lily salad,… what a delicacy! These days, the water lily plants have also helped make the minor lakes in the yards more beautiful and colorful with white, purple and yellow.
This season, water level is lower. In the swamp, the white-colored water lily flowers intermingle with the yellow ones, forming an outstanding features together with the green colors of the water and leaves. Water lily flowers are mildly beautiful, also very rural but luxurious nature.
