Golden season in autumn sunshine

September – October, the rice terraces ripening iridescent gold in Yen Bai and Cao Bang beautifully like highland paintings clinging to tourists.

The rice season is ripe by The Giong Giong waterfall in Dam Thuy commune, about 20 km from the center of Ching Khanh district. October is also an ideal time to explore The Gioc Waterfall.

Photographer Pham Chi Cong, who lives and works in Hanoi, said that every time he came to ripen rice season, he hunted and was fascinated by the golden season painting on each upland road. This series he took in 2019 – 2020 in Cao Bang and Yen Bai.

An interesting place to see ripe rice in Cao Bang is the Crank Son line winding through golden rice fields and limestone mountains in Phong Nam valley, Chongqing district.

The golden ripening rice field is mixed with the harvested rice fields seen from above in Phong Nam.

At the same time between September and early October, northwest terraced fields also shifted during the harvest season. The green rice waves alternately ripen gold in Tu Le, on the way to Blind Cang Chai, Yen Bai.

Mist clouds the village table on the terraces of La Pán Tan, people visit the field, the shadow hidden in the mist.

The site is located at an altitude of more than 1,000 m, more than 8 km from the center of Blind Cang Chai district. The Mong ethnic group renovated the mountainside into terraced fields hundreds of years ago and are still used for cultivation.

The legendary “raspberry” hill ripens gold in the autumn sun, the angle of photos tourists and photographers often take when stopping at La Pán Tien, Mu Cang Chai district, Yen Bai province.

The “horseshoe” terraces in Lao Chai during the harvest season. From Lao Chai center, you rent a motorbike to get to the beautiful corners. The road is up high, steep and there are small zigzag roads, difficult to walk so avoid moving in the rain, the road is easy to landslide and slippery.

“To have beautiful pictures of the ripening rice season, you should watch the moment of sunrise, sunset and when the sun is golden, avoid the murky weather,” Said Cong.
