VTV.vn - There's a large ancient lim (Erythrophleum fordii) forest with over 500 hundred-year-old trees located in Tay Giang District, Quang Nam Province.

The forest is around 2 km above sea level and is currently under the care of the Cơ Tu ethnic group and the local authorities. The authorities are proposing to recognize this as a national seeding forest. These ancient lim trees are now considered national treasures in need of protection which is why the most important task right now is to protect and develop this forest.
