Ban Ho
Village, Ban Ho is worth the somewhat difficult journey to get there, as
the village rewards visitors with stunning views of unspoiled sites and
an opportunity to discover the daily activities of the ethnic people
Tay.
On the
way to the waterfalls, which were named by locals after seeing fish
jumping out of the water in the old days, visitors will pass brooks
gently running down bamboo cylinders that locals use to channel the
water into their terraced paddy fields, wooden houses perched on the
sides of rolling hills and wild flowers.
When they
emerge from the water in the dry season the boulders and stones along
the Lavie Stream are artworks that resemble different figures, depending
on the imagination of viewers. In the rainy season from May till
September visitors can see water flowers created by the splashing water
running into the boulders.
The
trails and roads from Ban Ho also lead to the quiet Red Dao Village of
Nam Toong and other ethnic communities, where trekkers can enjoy the
best of Northern Vietnam, such as deep valleys, amazing mountains and
simple people.
