In Sa Dec, people use small boats to move through the flower beds and take care of the trees. Most flower pots are placed on trellises that do not touch the ground. This helps people in fertilizing each pot. (Photo: Zing News)

The most famous flower in Sa Dec is raspberry-shaped daisies. If you like this kind of flowers, then head to the flower village in Tan Khanh Dong, about 6-7 km from the center of Sa Dec. Local people here are quite easygoing and gentle, so you can also ask to take pictures. According to personal experience, visitors who like raspberry-shaped daisies should go from early morning. At this time of the day, people will start working so you will have a good chance for taking photos. (Photo: Zing News)
