This is the village of some H’Mong people. This place is a farming and agricultural production area about 1ha wide, with a scene like a miniature steppe between the Northwest mountains and forests. This place is about 18 km from the center of Moc Chau town, the road is quite tricky, so you need a hard steering wheel to control or you can take a motorbike taxi.

Cu Vai is known as a village in the clouds thanks to its terrain on top of a mountain, covered by clouds all year round. Seen from above, the village looks very flat even though the terrain is located on the top of the mountain. The village is not too big, but it is very easy to go because there is only a straight main road. The whole village has more than 50 houses running along both sides of the main road. Thanks to such a hidden location, this place still retains the unique features of Hmong culture.

Cat Cat village (SaPa, Lao Cai)

As a place that is too familiar to tourists when coming to Sapa, Cat Cat village belongs to San Sa Ho commune, Sapa district, Lao Cai province. Compared to many other villages, Cat Cat village is closer to the town, that’s why there are always a lot of tourists coming here.
