Visit Mu Cang Chai, Vietnam
Jump to:
- Tours
Mu Cang Chai is the perfect alternative to using the night train to or from Sapa. Surrounded by luscious green rice terraces that dominate the landscape, it is a great chance to take in the breathtaking scenery and rest en route.
The area itself is completely untouched by tourism and therefore the accommodation options are basic and you have to be adventurous with your food choice as you will be eating in local restaurants. This does, however, mean that you will have the rare opportunity to meet the indigenous ethnic minority groups in an area that most tourists never visit.
