The plums are now ripe and visitors can freely tour the orchard, take photos, pick, and enjoy fresh plums right on-site. To better meet the increasing demands of tourists, in addition to opening the orchard for tourist visits, we also offer camping services in the plum garden, providing unique experiences for visitors to the Moc Chau Plateau.”
