Tom: Yeah. We visited LangBiang Mountain, and Cu Lan Village. We saw a gong show in the evening.
Mi: What did you do on LangBiang Mountain?
Tom: We rode a jeep to the top. It was a thrilling ride up there. Then we took an eco-tour of
LangBiang Mountain. They said that the area is rich in flora and fauna with more than 150 plant
and animal species.
Mi: Sounds amazing! What did you do then?
Tom: We took pictures of the magnificent scenery. It was really enjoyable!
