Travel Guide to the To Thi Mountain in Lang Son
The statue of To Thi on the mountain
Legend
The mountain derived its name from Lady To, a local woman. She was said waiting for her husband to return from the battlefield for one year after another. Because of her beauty, she was forced to get married to the chief of the local communities. She tried to decline and asked for one delay after another... and her husband would never come back...
For so many delays, the chief didn't allow another one and she was to get married to him. She came to the nearby Tam Thanh Pagoda and prayed. Then, she climbed up to top of the mountain holding her baby to see if her husband was coming back. The whole world around turned dark in a thunderstorm with lightnings and the next day when the sun came out, local people saw that Lady To had turned into a stone statue already.

What to expect?
To Thi Mountain includes mountains peaks that surround a a raised open ground in the middle which makes it look like a natural fortress. The Mac family actually turned To Thi Mountain into a fortress by building a wall around it in the 16th century. Visiting the mountain nowadays, you can still climb the rocks and follow the path of the former fortress.
and beautiful view of the surrounding countryside
The walkways are of limestone and with slippery sand which requires good care while climbing
To Thi Mountain may look not that high, but you'd need extra efforts to climb all the walkways which should take you the whole afternoon. The rock is of limestone and easy to break off; the sand on the walkway is slippery; if you plan to hike all the way, then it is wise to clamber with good care.
