Nestled deep within the vast Truong Son range, Aur village (A Vuong commune, Tay Giang) retains its peaceful and pristine charm. To reach the village, visitors must spend several hours walking along the mountainside, traversing narrow winding trails with steep cliffs below. The path to Aur is usually marked on large trees to help newcomers find their way and return. Aur is known by many names such as: the Village as clean as Singapore (because it is extremely clean, without a single piece of litter), the Village of Four Zero (0 electricity, 0 phones, 0 roads, 0 medical station), and the Happy Village.
