Travel to mountain range
You should visit Ta Xua between December and March, when it is more likely to experience beautiful layers of clouds and blooming flowers.

It is considered as the second Sapa of the Northwestern mountains and forests, where the beautiful, strange, majestic, magical and wild beauty from nature, landscape to people and products are gathered.

A trip to the mountains to visit here is an opportunity to touch the cultural values of the local Hmong people, to enjoy the Tet (Lunar New Year) feast with the H'mong, to stand at the top to watch the sea of clouds drifting at your feet, taking a cup of ancient Shan Tuyet tea taken from centuries-old trees and flavored with the scent of Ta Xua mountain clouds, and the presence of the thousand-year symbols of the ancient people carved on Khe Ho ancient rock ground.
