HCM CITY – Visitors can get their palms massaged by ducks who eat out of their hands at a farm in the central province of Quảng Bình near the famous Phong Nha – Kẻ Bàng Cave.

The Duck Stop Farm is the brainchild of 20-year-old Trần Văn Quynh. The owner of the 120 ducks also calls his farm "Duck Heaven".

Quynh guides visitors for a duck massage and how to hold a handful of seeds in their cupped palms and allow the ducks to munch them.

The experience is similar to the famous fish massage in Thailand where people put their legs in water tanks full of small fish that nibble at the skin.

Besides the duck massage, tourists can ride buffalos in the rice field.

A visit to the farm costs between VNĐ150,000 ($6.47) and VNĐ250,000 ($10.78), depending on the activities you choose. – VNS
