As a timber trader, after many successful business ventures, Mr. H\u1ea3i decided to switch to the tourism and eco-tourism service sector. Currently, he is the director of a private tourism area in Ch\u00e2u Ph\u00fa District, An Giang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The traditional house was built by him to worship his ancestors. Almost all the furniture inside the house is made of wood, featuring many unique one-of-a-kind pieces, with an estimated total value of 45 billion VND, including the v\u00e1n ng\u1ef1a set that has been priced up to 3 billion VND.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To acquire this set, its owner spent nearly 3 years searching. The 2.2-ton v\u00e1n ng\u1ef1a set made from g\u00f5 b\u00f4ng lau wood was found in the Vietnam\u2013Laos border region. The owner of the Western region tourism area shared that when he first saw the wood slab, he was so amazed that he couldn\u2019t even speak. When the seller quoted the price, he didn\u2019t bargain at all and paid immediately. \u201cAt that time, there were 3 equally sized pre-cut g\u00f5 b\u00f4ng lau slabs in the warehouse. I asked to buy 2, but the owner refused to sell. In the end, they took pity on me for traveling so far, so they agreed to split and sell me one piece,\u201d Mr. H\u1ea3i recalled. After bringing it home, he used that very piece of wood to create the most unique v\u00e1n ng\u1ef1a set in the Mekong Delta today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This v\u00e1n ng\u1ef1a set has become one of the main attractions drawing visitors to his private tourism area. According to wood connoisseurs, the g\u00f5 b\u00f4ng lau tree is estimated to be over 500 years old. In addition, lying on this set gives a cooling sensation to the back and is said to help relieve aches, fatigue, and common colds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">According to Ng\u01b0\u1eddi \u0110\u01b0a Tin<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crafted from 2.2-ton n\u1eb7ng g\u00f5 b\u00f4ng lau wood, with a width of 2.15m and length of 4m, this unique v\u00e1n ng\u1ef1a set in An Giang has been offered more than 3 billion VND.
