Xishuangbanna, an independent prefecture in the Yunnan province of China, shares borders with Myanmar and Laos. It is renowned for its rich Dai heritage, unique temples and lush tropical jungles. The prefectural center of Jinghong boasts tree-lined streets and the Tropical Flower and Plants Garden featuring a diverse range of fruit trees and blooms. The Mengle Buddhist Temple is another significant attraction - a massive Dai religious complex that was completed in 2007.
Manting Park is a stunning national park featuring a variety of attractions. Visitors can admire the impressive statue of Premier Zhou Enlai, stroll through serene gardens filled with colorful flowers and trees, and marvel at the intricate architecture of the gilded Buddhist temple on site. The park also boasts a tranquil lake, dotted with charming little cottages perfect for resting or picnicking. A highlight is feeding the abundant fish in the pond, which eagerly jump over each other for food.
A beautiful park and temple complex. You can see it all in an hour or two. There's a nice cafe midway to cool off in. There is a dress code for the temple part. Ladies be prepared by taking a wrap or a shawl or you might be disappointed (and you can't get out of the park without walking all the way back - there is an exit via the temple.

Nice park, very beautiful flowers and trees, lake, with cosy little resting places. We especially appreciated the tittle cottages, where you can sit with 4-6 people and have a table and a roof. Also we fed the fish, so many fish in that pond that they jumped over each other when feeding. That's worth to see.
Boat hiring also possible and quite charming.
We enjoyed elephant and birds show. We didn't had the impression the elephants where treat good, so one point deduction. The show was okay.

An extensive park in the south-east of Xishuangbanna containing a wide variety of tropical and sub-tropical plants. A large lake runs through the park and boats are available for hire at certain times of year.
Live animal performances attract many Chinese visitors. Parrots and other tropical birds put on several displays throughout the day while in another arena captive elephants perform three times a day. Sadly these animals all show signs of 'abnormal repetitive behaviour' (ARB). The two captive elephants showed obvious signs of ARB such as repetitive pacing backwards and forwards as well as head swaying. Some of the birds also showed similar signs of ARB as well as self-plucking.
Aside of such circus like performance, often banned in the west, the park is nonetheless a pleasant walk through. It is also home to a large Buddhist temple which is accessed by crossing the bridge that divides the lake.

The botanical garden known as 中国科学院西双版纳热带植物园 is a sprawling site that boasts an impressive collection of tropical and sub-tropical flora. Visitors can explore a natural rainforest filled with tropical plants and may even spot monkeys swinging from trees. The park also features an ethnic people's museum showcasing the lifestyles of Yunnan's many ethnic groups.
Very nice park with a lot of interesting plants. Definitely worth a visit.

Very beautiful huge garden. Recomended for people who love to study plants, who loves to do paintings on flowers. You can see some rare plants.
Victoria lotus is one of the attractive plant found in this garden.

With an AAAAA tourist rank, this is the biggest tropical garden in China, which is always a must-visit in China! I have lived here for my graduate program, and I couldn't be happier to explore the place everyday!
Ninya Quibod — Google review
Quite expensive at around 100 RMB per person and a further 40 RMB for the electric shuttle bus which takes visitors around the extensive site. The gardens are filled with a wide array of tropical and sub-tropical plants and there also exists an untouched tropical forest area. Monkeys can also be seen swinging from trees in some parts of the park. Also worth a visit is the ethnic people's museum which houses examples of how some of the many ethnic groups that inhabit Yunnan used to live.

An interesting place to visit with access by boat or by foot. There are stalactite and stalagmite formations throughout the caves which are beautifully lit up. Some resemble animals and are named as such.
Sometimes referred to as Swift caves as well as Swallow caves, the place was once the place where nests were harvested for bird's nest soup. At the entrance to the caves are the names of the intrepid climbers who once had to scale the high cliffs to collect the nests. Nowadays, while the birds still nest in the caves, collecting the nests, hanging signs and climbing is very much put on for the tourists. Each August 8th, 9th and 10th the “Bird Nest Festival” is held. Some local people will climb up the precipitous cliffs to fetch nests. During the three days, many people gather here to attend the risky but exciting event. Worth a visit if you're in the area.

Fansipan, the highest mountain peak in Vietnam standing at 3143m, is a popular Alpine attraction that offers multi-day hiking tours and a breathtaking cable car ride. The peak can be reached by an overnight train + van/bus from Lao Cai Station, which takes around 8 hours. Visitors can also take on the challenge of hiking up to the top of the mountain or opt for a cable car ride that covers nearly 1,500 meters and takes you more than halfway there.
Amazing view when the weather is clear. Recommend to go early because the summit will get super crowded. It is beautiful up there but not sure if it’s worth it if you have to be in that queue. Another option is taking the stairs. The facility is well organized.
Kook Kik — Google review
The highest summit of the former French Indochina colony. To get to the peak, there’re only 2 ways: overnight trekking and taking long gondolas. The gondolas are quite expensive and include multiple stops with a train ride from downtown Sa Pa. During the holiday seasons, the peak is really overcrowded and filled with travelers, so make sure that you make to the station earlier than usual.

Gorgeous views, cool weather and cultural richness with temples and pagodas. The peak of Fansipan is a must try excursion and well worth it. You can go up via steps or a tramp.
Apipong Lamsam — Google review
If you guys are traveling to Sapa, there are two major tourist attraction in these area, which are Fansipan and Cat Cat village.
Fansipan is one of the highest mountain in the region. The idea is either take a cable car/ funicular and then a small tram to go to the peak region for sight seeing the mountain ranges and explore the pagoda and the Buddha statue. Or.
Explore the nature by hiking from the base of mountain all the way to the peak.
To go there. Just take a quick transpiration ride from the downtown Sapa city to go to Sunworld park to buy the tickets.
Since this is one of the highest mountain in the region. Be prepared for always constant changing weather conditions and high altitude sickness.
David Chao — Google review
When the weather is good you can just enjoy the time on fansipan for hours. Of course it's touristy but still worth it in my opinion. The views are excellent and the idea behind it quite nice

Magnificent views and statues! Building this without proper road is like another level of engineering;)))) I wasn't dressed ready for the crazy amount of wind. U can always buy clothes or pants from their souvenir shop but get ready for the chill and wind!
Despite a very touristy place but this place is worth while and require some wlaking
Pui Cheng Lum — Google review
I will say avoid a rainy day (worth a wait/stat in sapa for one more day) this can be way more beautiful- costs around 700k for cable car, 150k for two way train and 150k one side for last link train (optional) per person. Needs 3-4 hour’s minimum. Have a little park at cable car station where you can click beautiful pictures. Dont miss the waterfall on the way in cable car.

Spectacular view, wonderful experience, worth to walk up 600 steps instead taking the train. Visited in April and luckily the weather was good and stunning. Had to take a 🚂 up to the Fansipan station, then got to see a huge garden, then took a cable car 🚠 to the Fansipan, finally we walked up. We all really enjoyed it

I had the best experience visiting Fansipan. The weather was very good; it was sunny with a little fog around 3 PM. I would highly suggest that you look at the weather forecast before going here so that you don't waste your money on a foggy view.
I recommend buying the package tickets with the peak rail because there are many steps to climb, especially when the weather is not on your side.
Ian — Google review
I really enjoyed Fansipan Peak. I had no idea it was owned by the same company as Ba Na Hills which I will admit, when I found out it really put me off. I was not of fan of the latter.
All in all though it was very professionally run. The cable car to the top was enjoyable although being April, visibility was low.
Aside from also being on a mountain peak, it felt like a very different experience to Ba Na. We did not use the Funicular mid way but chose to take the steps to the top. It was not a difficult climb with various points of interest to stop along the way. That said the Temples, Pagodas, statues etc… all recently constructed, did set the almost ‘theme park’ scene as they were clearly made for tourism purposes.
So I guess the bottom line is these are theme parks really, tourist driven… the trade off being access to one at one of the highest peaks in the area. Enjoyable if you take it for what it is.

Highest peak in Vietnam, 3143m. It's best to come here early in the morning and enjoy the wonderful views because it may get foggy fast. One may take a cable car up to the top, then walk down slowly, less tiring.

Super cool view 🤩I bought my ticket round trip 🚠 cable car 🚡 and train. I was so impressed with the smooth and safety I felt 😌 it was a great experience for me. I have been to many places with cable cars but this was the best one for me. I think that I took a right decision to travel Sapa before I am too old 😂

Basically a hit or miss. Check the weather before heading to Fansipan. In addition, DO NOT go on weekends due to the high number of tourists. PREFERABLY GO weekdays and even if the weather says clear skies, on top there might still have fogs. Don’t be discouraged and wait for the fog to dissipate. Stay there at least 1-2 hours (not counting the cable car). A lot of stairs. Be prepared for up and down a lot. DO take a lot of rests if you’re not fit. Stairs are also super steep! Go with a guide or group if you need help. Plenty of bathroom and vendors for drinks. Wear warm clothing too. And have fun most of all! Hope you’ll love it as i did!

Day trip up Fansipan and we’re lucky. Lucky because it’s a clear day in Sapa in autumn!
We pay our money at the failed shopping mall that is the station and head down to the funicular.
Tickets are 800,000 dong pp midweek or 850,000 on weekends. Extra 150,000 for the lower funicular and 150,000 for the upper funicular.
We chose the lower and the cable car figuring we’d climb the last bit. And we did. Lots of stairs but it was fun stopping along the way for many, many photos.
The cable car journey is spectacular and long - just over 6k.
The temples and associated statues are amazing, but nature is the star here. The views across the valley toSapa are stunning, as are the views that seem to stretch to China.
We didn’t succumb to the food court or souvenir shopping at all the different stations so can’t comment on them. There is a lot of ‘please exit through the gift shop’.
Was a remarkable day. Do it!
Small note - wear sensible shoes. Saw lots of women struggling with heels on the narrow steps.

Cabel car ride took 20 minutes to go to the summit.we visited the place at the end of December, and that time, the weather was not good. the temperature was less than 5°.top of the mountain they had a restaurant and some shops.price was not expensive.
If you are planning to visit the summit and if it is the first time you are going to visit a high altitude place, you may get altitude sickness, so be prepared.
Chandi G — Google review
We decide to come up at the foggy day because we didn’t want to miss our only chance to come up. The cable car ride is the most impressive. 3K took about 25 mins. Going through mountains, valley and streams. It’s absolutely worth of the ride just for that. The entire walk up is marble paved stairs. I can imagine how slippery it would be. The Buddhist temples and statues through out. The Buddhist singing all the way to top. It’s a very different experience of hiking. Summit at 3126m. The clear day would be amazing. Foggy day should be think twice.

Incredible experience, even on a cloudy day! Cable car is worth the price just on its own, amazing views. Some shops and restaurants at the top, not too expensive but very touristy and not much choice. I highly recommend you go to the peak, big are up there for photos! You could easily spend half the day there exploring!

Went yesterday ( 24 March 24) and was expecting it to be sunny as it was almost 27 degrees in Sapa and hot but oh boy I was wrong. Super windy and cold here (16 degrees max with high wind) with low visibility. Luck of the draw really but nevertheless it was a very cool experience and was cool being up so high. At the station it was super nice and sunny.

Beautiful hike up the mountain. A pity we didn't manage to see the sunrise. Opt for the cable car down post the hike, offers a different view of the region
Located in San Sa Ho commune of Sapa district, the magnificent Silver Waterfall is a must-visit tourist attraction in Northern Vietnam. With its location right next to the 4D national highway, it offers easy accessibility to visitors. The waterfall stands tall at over 200m and the rushing white foam water creates a mesmerizing sight. The Bac Waterfall is also located nearby which adds to the experience along with O Quy Ho, one of Vietnam's most beautiful mountain passes.
Totally worth it for the little price and the wonderful views. Don't expect a long trek or anything though, it is a pretty short visit but the view is quite impressive.
I don't think I'd come all this distance to see only this waterfall but if you combine it with love waterfalls and the views in the area then it is a must.

The Silver Waterfall is a hidden gem surrounded by pure nature. With a small entrance fee, the attraction offers an affordable escape without any waiting lines.

It’s a little bit run down, we went in the afternoon around 2.30pm and the sun was behind the hill so it was in shade and quite dark. Entry was 20k each and it takes about 5-10 minutes to get to the top, One side of the walkway is closed at the moment for repairs so you go up and down the same path. It’s a pretty waterfall but nothing amazing. I think better to visit in the morning/midday so it’s sunny

This stunning waterfall is located at about 30 minutes away from sapa town and it costs about 20k dong for the entrance fee. It’s about a 15 mins hike up to the mini bridge to see the waterfall, and it’s really quite pretty as you get the comprehensive views of the mountains as well. However, a tip is if you took a taxi up here, please get the driver to wait for you!! We didn’t and the information counter tried to charge us 500k dong to get to our next spot that is 5 mins away lol… but yes definitely recommend this place!!

Just take photo outside and purchase persimmons by the roadside which the fruits is so juicy and crunchy. There is fees to pay on the entrance.

We hired a taxi driver at a reasonable price to drive us to the Silver Waterfall and the Love Waterfall, about fifteen minutes from Sapa, and of course he would wait for us. First, for 70000 dong we entered the love waterfall reserve, a foggy morning created mysterious and beautiful sights, the road to this waterfall is lined with stairs, some with a railing, and lovely views. The waterfall itself is very high, at the bottom a heart-shaped object is designed and there you take pictures in the background of the waterfall, kitschy but nice. At the end, the taxi driver was waiting for us to take us to the silver waterfall, we bought a ticket at the entrance for 20,000 dong and we started a steep climb of about two hundred steps to the lower third of the waterfall, where there is a bridge that crosses the waterfall and allows a view angle up to its beginning at the top. At the exit of the waterfall there are several food stalls for those who are really hungry and can't wait until we get to Sapa. All in all a pleasant experience of several hours, recommended.

It's a nice spot, but nothing too spectacular. Fair amount of steep stairs to walk up, but not so bad. Little shops and food nearby. If you see the shop shortly before the ticket booth listing "Com Rang," get that. Some of the best fried rice you'll eat (contains) little meat cubes.

The Cable Car Station Sapa is a popular tourist attraction that offers aerial cable car rides between Sapa and Fansipan Peak. The journey provides breathtaking views of the mist-covered spring scenery and colorful Buddhist flag road. At either end, there are temples, restaurants, and shops for visitors to enjoy. Fansipan Peak is the highest mountain in Vietnam and often called the "Roof of Indochina." It's a popular destination for those seeking adventure and memorable experiences.

When you reach the summit, you will be rewarded with breathtaking views of cloud-covered peaks spanning all the way to the horizon.
Fansipan's cloud patterns vary every few seconds, offering new shapes and vistas as the earth meets the sky.

Must visit place if you are planning to visit SAPA.. this is one of the height pic of the mountain.. one thing to remember before visiting this place.. you need to walk a lot.. if you are heart patient avoid to visit.. or if you are leasy to walk avoid the place to visit.. but one important point if you avoid to visit this place i must say you have missed the beautiful place to visit.. the rope way (cable car) service is so nice.. the management is so proper.. the cable are takes almost 20 mins to get it there at the top.. it feels like you are going from downward to upwards in between the clouds. (must experience it) .. after coming out of the cable car, you feel like you are in haven. the pagoda is very beautiful. also one more thing there is an train inside this place which runes on 90 degree angle, must ride once.. the charges are extra for this.. the beauty from top of the mountain is like (no words to explain).. check my photos for more details.. take water with you while visiting this place..

Outrageous views and stunning world record holder cable car. If you’re lucky enough to ascend 3200m and have a view, then count your blessings. Clouds and mist roll through like a surreal landscape. Simply stunning. ENTIRE views of Sapa valley as you ascend. 1,000,000 VND for entire round trip ascent of funicular, tram, and cable car.

Long line, but it moves quickly and great views on the way! The top can be cloudy, depending on the day you visit, but still well worth the trip. Vendors outside have surprisingly low prices souvenirs as well! Lots of fun and super glad we did it! We missed out the first day since the ticket office closes at 4pm, so keep that in mind!

Very fun, it is broken into 2 stops. One you take a "train" up, once at that location you can walk around, see the gardens, then take the tram the final leg of the trip. It was lovely in Sa Pa but it sure changed once we reached the summit
Loretta Lundquist — Google review
Very pricey way to get up a mountain. They really force you to walk through the gauntlet of souvenir stands and eateries which was unwanted. However, the temple and monastery complex at the top of the mountain is impressive. And the views are incredible.

We had a great experience, even though the weather was bad (foggy, windy). It was still very much worth the trip. The cable car ride is exciting with long overspans and great views over the terraced farms and nature on the mountains. It was a bit windy, and the cabin was swaying a bit. We bought a vip package, which is well worth the money as you can skip all lines in the train and cable car and have a cabin for yourselves.

Great place to visit, the views were great. Too bad when we reached the peak it was cloudy.
The views up to the peak was great.
Recommend buy the VIP package.
Recommend around 4-5 hours to spend on both sides of the attraction.
Get the tram up to the peak, don’t save on that’s then walk down instead.

I’m not sure if the crowd would be lesser during weekdays. Went on a weekend and was pushed and shoved around by their local people, there is zero queue management, the locals do not care if you’re pregnant or old, they still shove you out of the queue.
Not suitable for elderly and young toddlers. Would NOT recommend unless the management practise better coordination and educate all visitors on queueing and patience.
Regrettably a bad experience, plenty of clouds. Weather is unpredictable and checking the forecast does not help at all.

A breathtaking gondola which is a very long route with a stunning view.
It takes you around 15 min to reach the highest peak in Indochina.
Advice to buy a ticket in advance to minimize a waiting time

Wonderful cable car experience to reach the top of Indochina, the Fansipan. There are 3 kinds of transportation to reach fansipan. First is funicular train from sun plaza to mung hoa station, second is the cable car from mung hoa station to fansipan station, and the third is monorail from fansipan station to fansipan peak. However you can choose to walk from fansipan station to fansipan peak and save you some money. The total cost if you use all mentioned transportation is about 50USD, so it's advised to book your ticket online.
Danny Kwan — Google review
We loved this experience, even on a stormy wet day. The temples and statues are beautiful, the cafe at the top, although expensive, made the best hot chocolate we have ever tasted, the cable car ran smooth and was roomy with insane views of the valley below, and to cap it all there was a break in the cloud which gave us a glimpse out, a rainbow and the most atmospheric photos. Highly recommend.

A must go place if you are in Hanoi, despite traveling to Sa Pa, Lao Cai by road takes about 6 hours. Best to go is in the morning, opens from 0815hrs, while the afternoon sun is not out. There will be queue surely but quite quickly it flows. Last train will be 1530hrs from SaPa station.
Cat Cat Village is located in the Muong Hoa Valley, renowned for its stunning natural scenery and rich H'mong culture.

Mù Cang Chải District
Neighborhoods
Points of Interest & Landmarks
Mù Cang Chải is a rural district of Yên Bái province, in the Northwest region of Vietnam. As of 2019, the district had a population of 63,961, covering an area of 1199 km². The district capital lies at Mù Cang Chải. Wikipedia.
Bac Ha Market, located in the Northwest of Vietnam, is a vibrant and bustling market that takes place every Sunday. The market starts early in the morning and is filled with a riot of colors as Flower Hmong women come to accessorize their beautifully dressed attire. This market features a cattle market, vegetable and meat stalls, wine vendors, and agricultural products.
This market is fantastic! Great for people watching, admiring ethnic minorities costumes and trying tasty local produce. Be aware of the lady in the photo. She pretends to be nice and friendly to the extent of hugging you just to make you sit at her stall and overcharge you for beer, coconut water and/or sunflower seeds and passion fruit (which btw doesn't cost 260 k dong). Her stall is right on the main market square close to the stage. Enjoy the market ☺️

Quite an experience visiting this weekly market. Long drive to get there but worth the visit. Large market spread over a large area selling just about everything! Lots of local produce, medicinal products, local ethnic outfits (being bought by local people, not just for tourists). Food and animal sections. Avoid the animal section if you would be upset by poor conditions for the animals.

Busy market on Sunday - buffalo sales have been moved to Saturday afternoons, only pig, dog, chicken and duck sales now.
Tour guide mentioned that stuff here is cheaper than sapa, could get a big bottle of honey for 100000 VND while in Sapa it's 200,000
Tried some fried foods

Big local market on sunday, from morning till 2:00 pm, near the mountainous highlands and the Chinese border.
It's considered as the largest and most colorful market in the area. Throngs of villagers from the surrounding hill tribes walk to the market to purchase and exchange food, animals, clothes and household goods.
A must see in Bac Ha.
Alice Nguyen — Google review
It is a very large market that doesn’t have many tourists so it is certainly quite authentic but it doesn’t deserve a day trip from Sapa. The journey is quite long in a winding road. The items that you can find in the market are the same than in sapa.

Located in the center of Bac Ha district, Lao Cai province, Bac Ha market stays near the borderland between Vietnam and China. Bac Ha Market is a weekly market that only takes place on Sundays. The colorful tribes market, selling everything from farming produces to livestock such buffalo, pig, chicken not missing the dogs and puppies. A row of open air barbers line the side lane of the river to the market (behind the row of shop lots. The buffaloes market is after the bridge if you don’t mine the dang smell, just follows the dropping on the road to the main trading area. Here you can watch the negotiation going on among the farmers and the buffaloes changed owner, dealing in cash.

We did 7 days trip in north Vietnam with Zonitrip and we couldn't choose better!
Our lovely guide Nghia took care of our trip so comprehensively we did not have to worry about anything. Both the guide and the driver were very friendly and professional!
After the trip we know that we wouldn't experience even half of what we did without them - she showed us the most secluded paths, introduced to local people, showed the everyday life of Vietnamese people on the countryside (e.g. home fresh noodle manufacture, tea production in the backyard etc).
Additionally we didn't know what to expect in Vietnam in terms of vegetarian food, but with Nghia it was no concern at all. Every meal was a feast! Plenty of delicious vegetarian options.
Tuan is an amazing driver, very calm and patient. The car was comfortable, he stopped every time we asked, kept the car sparkling clear throughout the whole trip.
At first we were a little bit unsure if a guided trip is for us, as we prefer to travel on our own. However it turned out to be simply amazing experience! She gave us as much privacy as we needed, while being around to share fascinating stories or just for a friendly chat.
5 five stars, no doubts!!!

One of The Most Memorable Parts of Our Trip!
We absolutely LOVED this three day, two night trip with Nghia! We started from Hanoi and made our way up north to Mu Cang Chai. We spent the first day trekking to a tea farm up in the mountains and spent the first night at a homestay. We biked through rice fields, met locals and learned a lot about the community. We trekked up in Mu Chang Chai the second day via motorbike, walking and met locals, including our tour guide. As a traveler here, you need to be flexible and willing to experience the trip, even when the conditions aren't ideal. It rained some on the second day, and was very muddy, but I think that gave the day an even better memory.
Our meals were also very yummy and we were able to experience all sorts of local delights.

The 4 days spent with the tour organized by Zonitrip were truly exceptional!
We visited places that would otherwise have been impossible to visit independently. Everything organized to perfection, from the driver to the places to sleep, from meals with local food to overnight stays.
A true immersion in Vietnamese culture and customs!
If you also add friendliness, fun and wonderful evenings together to all this, this is ZoniTrip!
Great! Thanks for everything

Nghia from Zonitrip tailored our 6 nights trip to North Vietnam to our needs. She knew the hikes and their rigor very well and she was very careful in planning our daily adventures. This was the BEST cultural experience for us and it was enlightening to visit authentic remote villages where no other tourists go!

“Very great trip to mount Fansipan !”
5 of 5 starsReviewed 5 days ago NEW
Thanks Zonitrip for this great experience ! We climbed the mount Fansipan, the highest point in Vietnam. We were in Yen Bai which is 3hours from Hanoi by bus. Nghia organised everything for us, as dropped us on the Highway at midnight to catch the bus to Sapa !
We were only four in our group, and we started to hike the first day and we slept in the base camp (2800m). Good atmosphere and good people over there ! The guide cooked a great meal for us and we spent good time drinking some local alcohol and beers (you can find beers in the hut but you have to bring your own alcohol wink emoticon
The day after we started to hike around 6.30am for 2 hours until the top of the Fansipan.
Unfortunately it was really cloudy, like almost every day so no regrets !
We decided to go down by the cable car (600 000 dng) cause of the rain. We had time to visit around Sapa and to meet some locals before to take the bus. The city is really nice even if it's extremely touristy...
We went back in Yen Bai around 8pm and Nghia was waiting for us with her husband to dropped us at home.
That was 2 really nice days ! Thank you so much for everything ! I highly recommend Zonitrip !

Amazing tour with zonitrip. The countryside in Vietnam. I visited Mu Cang Chai, is so peaceful, with pure air, fresh food and friendly local people. My tuor guide said there were many other places to discover in Vietnam. And i think i'll comeback in the near future.
No admission fees but you need to know where to go. LOL. We were so fortunate to meet with the tea plantation owners today!! They spent hours chatting with us about the oolong tea harvesting and processing and the growth of the plantation over the past 25 years. The oolong tea here are shipped to Taiwan, where then repackaged, rebranded and shipped to Japan and Europe. We got to taste test four different types of oolong teas. There are about ten different types that are grown here and are harvested at four different times a year. Best oolong teas we ever had!! We bought different teas to bring back home as gifts. The wife walked us to many beautiful spots around the plantation and took many beautiful pictures for us. Both husband and wife were super sweet and friendly!! So grateful for their hospitality!!!

Google's location for this is wrong. Or maybe I was just there when it was closed or something. But I got to the location and there was nothing there. However I quickly found "Đồi Chè Trái Tim" nearby which is exactly what you're looking for. Lots of really cool tea hills all over and very fun to explore and try the various local teas.
Mike VA — Google review
One way to describe the experience here would be "Fine wine philosophy applied to tea production".
The owners have been tilling this land for over 2 decades and the hard work and dedication shine through the quality of their product.
Operating to a self imposed, strict and very high standard, you can feel their genuine passion, respect and love for the tea plants and the land upon which they grow.
Their tea varieties are second to none when it comes to taste and aroma.
What makes this place truly stand out for anyone, not just tea buffs, is the true hospitality and kindness of the people, the priceless knowledge and wisdom they impart.

This is a beautiful tea plantation a bit outside of Moc Chau town. There is a hotel on the property. We contacted them to take a tour of the tea farm and factory (taste tea, walk the farm, and take a tour of the factory where they process the tea). We arrived and were greeted with delicious tea and a short tour of the area. Very limited English so they were unable to give us a tour of the factory, which is the main reason we went. Tea and incense available at the property.
The Tea House of Baiyue Tribes is an open air museum that showcases the Vietnamese tradition of tea drinking. This hobby has been associated with older and more learned individuals who engage in aristocratic activities such as composing poems, tending flowers or appreciating nature. Lighter teas with flower fragrance are preferred by the Vietnamese people, including green tea and floral-scented white tea.
Try to make a booking in advance! I had such a great time here talking with everyone here and exploring the tea house. We had some homemade food and sampled all kinds of local tea.

It was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life. Mr. Son is a person with a huge heart who puts all his effort into the cause. What cause? Helping ethnic minorities by supporting sustainable traditional tea cultivation to benefit the environment and protect people's labor. I stayed there about 2 weeks and from the first minute I felt at home. At the Tea House I left a little piece of my heart. If you want to discover more about tea, helping others and growing emotionally, this project is for you. Bye Mr. Son, thank you for everything. Bye guys and children. I wish you the best. I will miss you very much.

Traditionally, Vietnamese tea drinking is considered a hobby of the older, more learned members in households and in society in general. Tea drinking would accompany aristocratic activities such as composing poems, tending flowers, or simply appreciating nature. Vietnamese people generally favor lighter teas with flower fragrance, such as green tea or floral-scented white tea.
Vietnamese teas are produced in many areas that have been known for tea-house "retreats". Vietnam has the world's oldest trees, dating back to 1000 years.[1]

what should i say about here shall i call it home far away from home the moment i came in here first i felt peace a tremendous vibe. the calmness the sound of the forest and the sound of birds people doing music . nothing that powerful as the man who is the back bone of this place The one and only Mr Hung his vision , thoughts and his vigor and vitality at his age has surprised me the most and hence in. blink of an eye i felt i should call a father figure and did call him papa Nd he accepted it with a smile. the man who attends to every nitty gritty in the place not idle but walks around addressing every issues foresees them even checking if people / guests are taken care right way wish if i had half the potential of him . not the last but the least the 2 young girls who works here as i saw from the morning i open my eyes they are on the job watching them.working for the keep up of the place i went a asked them can i be a helping hand and the reply came in not thank u we are good and back to the hard toil of the day and then come the superwomen who can do almost everything like riding an electric wheel barrow to anything bringing down a tree and if given a chance could be a builder to make structures gosh i would recommend this place with all my hearts experience it is what is say from mountain climbs and trips to villages and even the ha giang loop they does and arrange everything Guys at tea house stay the same you are Rocking.

One of the best tea drinking experiences I've ever experienced! I've been to Korea, Japan and China and tasted the best of the best. To that end,the quality of tea here is the definitely some of the best in Asia from what I've experienced. The tea is grown locally and roasted just across the street. The hospitality of the indigenous staff and knowledge of local customs, flora/fauna make this a must stop on any journey in the Vietnamese Highlands.

Nestled in the misty and captivating landscape, Ba Vi National Park provides a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of Hanoi. The park features well-developed trails that lead to attractions such as the Ho Chi Minh Temple, the Ruins, and the Cactus Dome. It's an ideal spot for birdwatching and offers a great opportunity to immerse in nature.
Mountains and forest about 1h from Hanoi, good place to spend a weekend. There are some nice walks and ruins of a French church.

Closet greenery natural vibes from Hanoi. Go up to the mountain and enjoy the fresh cool air out of the city. Entrance fee 60K and parking fee 10K (they said for 2 places). Nothing much to see, nothing changed throughout years, can go camping and that’s all.
Duong Lam is a small, ancient village located outside of Hanoi, Vietnam that has retained its historic charm and cultural significance. It is known for its well-preserved architecture and traditional way of life, with houses made from laterite blocks and wooden beams, narrow alleyways, old temples, and communal wells. The village also holds great historical value as the birthplace of two Vietnamese kings in the 10th century.
