Mu Cang Chai: A Promising 'Northwest tourist paradise'

Many small towns nest silently in the midst of nature, suddenly one day transforming into a tourist city with overwhelming density of buildings. The original cultural identities are gradually lost by the impact of the market. 

The conflict between the preservation of natural landscapes, traditional cultural values ​​and the stormy development of the economy is always a lesson for any region. Perhaps because of foreseeing these things, at the end of March 2021, Mu Cang Chai district organized a workshop on tourism development directions for the home district. 

The Secretary of the Mu Cang Chai District Party Committee, Mr. Nong Viet Yen and the Chairman of the District People's Committee, Mr. Le Trong Khang showed us the "Project to build Mu Cang Chai district into a tourist district in the period of 2021 - 2015 and orientations to 2030 "and emphasize: This is the determination of the cadres and people of the whole district, to clearly see the potential of Mu Cang Chai for development. 

This potential is not only seen by the people of Mu Cang Chai or Yen Bai, but also for domestic and foreign tourists to come to us, to invest together, to develop together, for everyone to enjoy the natural beauty and the distinct culture of this land. 

Following Highway 32 from Yen Bai city, to Nghia Lo, through Van Chan, arriving at the eastern gate of Mu Cang Chai, upon reaching Khau Pha pass, visitors are stunned with the immense terraced valley below. blue sky, cloudy and sunny. 

The majestic beauty of these terraced hills has been recognized by the Prime Minister as a special National-level monument with nearly 900 hectares of fields.
