A tale has been told from generation to generation that Princess Huyen Tran had once suffered from an incurable rheumatism. Eminent doctors from all over the region tried their best to find a cure to no avail, and that sorely upset her husband, King Che Man.

One day during his journey, the king absent-mindedly walked into a mountainous area with full of an alluring fragrance. The deeper he went, the more he fell immersed in the aroma and got lost under the huge canopies of those tall old trees in the forest. Little was known about whom he had met nor what he had done in that full-of-fragrance forest, but that King Che Man brought back a thick cinnamon bark and started hewing wooden shoes for his wife. A miracle happened, after a short while, Princess Huyen Tran's condition started to improve as she wore shoes made by King Che Man himself.

Since then, the king and local people had always believed that cinnamon and star anise from that sacred forest can cure all cold-borne diseases. They had long kept products of cinnamon and star anise inside their house to prevent toxic wind and coldness, to warm up the environment, and also to enjoy the fragrance. Nonetheless, trees in the sacred forest have long been raised for generations by natives as a kind of dowry for their children. One tree, two trees, a forest of trees to fill the mountainous area with the beautiful fragrance.
