ʻAʻole hiki ke noʻonoʻo a wehewehe paha i nā huaʻōlelo i ka manaʻo o Halong Bay. He waiwai kūlohelohe kēia i uhi ʻia i nā mea huna. Kū hoʻokahi kēlā me kēia mokupuni, nani nā ana a me nā grottoes i kā lākou ala ponoʻī, a hoʻonui nā kala a me nā pua i nā kala i nā wahi a puni. A ʻoiai ʻaʻole hoʻāʻo nui ke aupuni Vietnamese e hoʻomaikaʻi i kēia wahi hoʻolauleʻa, nui nā mākaʻikaʻi i ka wā maikaʻi no ka leʻaleʻa.
Halong Bay a me kona hiʻona ʻāina
Kakaikahi ka poʻe i ʻike i hea ke kai kūʻono hoihoi a pehea e hele ai i kēia mau wahi ʻona ʻole ʻia e ʻoe iho. No Vietnam nā mokupuni, kahi ʻāpana o ke awa. Aia lākou i ke kai Kina Hema, ma ke kahawai ʻo Tonkin. Hoʻomaopopo ʻia ʻo Halong Bay ma ke ʻano he pūʻulu o ʻekolu tausani mau mokupuni, nā ana, nā pōhaku a me nā ʻākoʻo. ʻO ka hapa nui o lākou ʻaʻohe o lākou inoa kikoʻī, a, malia paha, aia nō he mau ʻāpana o ka ʻāina i hehi ʻole ʻia e kānaka.
ʻO ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana o nā kaukani liʻiliʻi o ka ʻāina ma waena o ka ʻili kai i kahi 1,500 kilomika kilomika keu. Uhi ʻia ka hapa nui o ka ʻili me nā mea kanu like ʻole. Hāʻawi ʻia kahi hapakolu o kēia ʻāpana i kahi pāka aupuni, ʻo ia ka World Heritage Site mai ka makahiki 1994.
Inā makemake ʻoe e kipa i kēia mau wahi, pono ʻoe e hāʻawi i ka makemake i kahi manawa mālie o ka makahiki. He aniau ka aniau, no laila ʻaʻole e loli ke aniau mai kēlā mahina a kēia mahina. Aia nā kau nui ʻelua: ka hoʻoilo a me ke kauwela. I ka hoʻoilo, mai ʻOkakopa a Mei, aia kahi haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa, ma kahi o 15-20 kekelē, a me ka ea maloʻo anuanu. ʻOi aku ka lōʻihi o ke kauwela a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi no ka hoʻomaha, ʻoiai ke ua pinepine i kēia wā, akā ʻo ka hapa nui i ka pō. ʻAʻole koi ʻia e kipa i ke kai kūʻono mai ʻAukake a ʻOkakopa, no ka mea pinepine ka typhoons i kēia mau mahina.
Paipai mākou e heluhelu e pili ana i ka Mariana Trench.
Ma hea a pehea e hoʻomaha ai
Kaulana nui ʻia ʻo Halong Bay me nā poʻe mākaʻikaʻi, ʻoiai ʻaʻole e hoʻomohala pono ʻia kēia wahi leʻaleʻa e nā luna. ʻAʻohe pili maoli ma aneʻi, a he mau mokupuni wale nō ka hiki ke kaena i ka loaʻa o nā wahi no ka noho ʻana, ka meaʻai a me nā hoʻokipa. No ka leʻaleʻa i kou wā hoʻomaha loa, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi e hele i Tuanchau, kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke pulu i nā kahakai, lawe i kahi papa lomilomi, a hoʻolimalima i nā lako luʻu.
Hoʻomaikaʻi pū ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi i nā wahi ʻē aʻe, e laʻa me:
ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo a me nā moʻolelo e pili ana i ka mōʻaukala o Halong Bay
Pili nā moʻolelo ʻano ʻē he nui i ka honua kupaianaha o nā mokupuni o ke kai Kina Hema. Ua kākau ʻia kekahi o lākou, haʻi ʻia kekahi e like me nā kaʻao he kupaianaha. E haʻi kēlā me kēia kamaʻāina i ka moʻolelo o ke kumu o ke kai kūʻono, i pili me kahi deragona e noho ana i nā wai kūloko. Manaʻo ʻia ua noho ʻo ia ma nā kuahiwi ma mua ma ke kahua o ka pae ʻāina. I ka iho ʻana mai o ka deragona mai nā piko mai, me kona huelo ikaika, ua hoʻokaʻawale ʻo ia i ka ʻāina i nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi i lilo i mau pōhaku, nā pali a me nā wahi puʻu liʻiliʻi. Ua hoʻopiha koke ka wai i nā mea āpau a puni, e hāpai ana i kahi kūʻono nani. ʻO ke kumu ʻo Halong "kahi i iho ai ka deragona i ke kai."
Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi ke ʻōlelo me ka maopopo ʻole loa he deragona i kēia wai. Aia kekahi mau moʻolelo o nā luina e pili ana i ka kamaʻāina mystical o Halong Bay, nona ka nui e makaʻu nui nei. Wahi a nā wehewehe like ʻole, like ia me ka puhi nunui, ke nānā aku nei i kēlā me kēia manawa mai ka wai, akā ʻaʻole hiki ke kiʻi ʻia i ke kiʻi. Ua ʻike ʻia nā leka like i ka hopena o ka 19 a me ke kenekulia 20 mau kenekulia, akā mai ka makahiki 1908, ʻaʻohe mea ʻē aʻe i hiki ke hālāwai me ka mea noho pohihihi o ka hohonu.
ʻOiai ʻo ke kai kūʻono he huhui o nā kaukani mau mokupuni, ʻo ia kahi wahi kūpono e peʻe ai. No kēia mau kumu i hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ai i nā wā mōʻaukala like ʻole. Ua makemake nā ʻohana kahiko e hūnā ma waena o nā mokupuni puni ʻole i ke kaua mai nā ʻenemi. Ma hope, hoʻokau pinepine ʻia nā moku powa i nā kahakai kūloko. ʻOiai i loko o ke Kaua Vietnam, ua hoʻokō kūleʻa ka pūʻali koa gererilla i kā lākou hana, ka hoʻokau ʻana i nā pūʻali koa ma Halong Bay. A i kēia lā hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaha ma aneʻi ma nā kahakai, no ka mea ʻaʻole i hoʻokomo ʻia ka hapa nui o lākou i nā huakaʻi mākaʻikaʻi, ʻoiai me kā lākou mau hiʻohiʻona nani.
