Vietnam tour package: Mai Chau Tour: Hanoi - Mai Chau - Lac Village (1 Day)

Mai Chau is renowned for its beautiful scenery as a mountainous region in the northern mountain area of Vietnam. This is where the Thai ethnic minority group is located in Hoa Binh province. Trekking ways will lead you through jungles, rice fields, green lakes or a variety of farms of local inhabitants.


 

Panoramic view of Lac Village.

In Mai Chau valley, there are also national caves and grottoes such as Mo Luong cave, Chieu cave, Pieng Kem grotto, and archaeological sites like Lang cave and Khau Phuc cave. Tourists tend to stop for a long time on the peak of Cun Mountain to contemplate the picturesque panorama of Mai Chau stilt houses and a green carpet of rice. You can even join the people working on the fields and learn how to raise a rice plant.

 

Traditional stilt house.

The star attraction here is a 'homestay' in a stilt house in one of the two ethnic White Thai villages, Ban Pom Coong and Ban Lac. Most travelers choose to stay a night in one of the stilt houses to experience the life of the ethnic people. Night camp fire will make you joyful, special wine will make you drunk and nice songs will bring you sweet dreams.
