Thang Hen Lake, hidden behind the canopy of old forests and cat-eared cliffs, is a blue diamond-shaped lake with four seasons. The Tay people say it resembles the tail of a bee, so they call it Thang Hen ("bee tail" in the Tay language). Thang Hen is the largest freshwater lake among the 36 freshwater lakes in Tra Linh district. Although they are separated, they are connected by underground caves. The lake water is hazy jade green all year round, even during flood season - when other lakes in the same area are red with mud. The reason is because the lake's upstream is Thang Hen cave at high altitude. Water pouring out from the mouth of the cave provides a source of "clean water" for the lake.
