Here, nature has bestowed the land of Na Hang with magnificent scenery, forests stretching a green color full of eyes, mysterious caves and famous waterfalls such as apricot waterfall, Pac Hau, Nam Me, etc. The sound of the waterfall rumbling day and night like the sound of mountains and forests telling stories of legends passed down from generation to generation, remembering their roots forever, deeply inculcating the love between husband and wife, brothers,… km we came to Mo waterfall, a famous waterfall with the legend that she went to the mountain to find her husband to pick medicine and never returned, the white water rushing from the top of the mountain like a call to find a husband. At the foot of the waterfall is a clear lake, in the summer you can swim and cool off. At the bottom of the lake, looking up at the waterfall, we see a gentle and gentle waterfall like the hair of a faithful girl, stretching over the color of the waterfall. green of the mountains.

Speaking of corn wine, I suddenly remembered the poem: “When I went out to the street, I met wine; come home to meet my eyes; Friend, those two things; Makes my heart soft”, yes, drunk with meaning, intoxicated with love, drunk with the fruits of labor and intoxicated with the hospitality of the Na Hang people.

Saying goodbye to Then song, goodbye to passionate corn wine, 70 km further we came to Hong Thai commune, with an altitude of over 1200 m above sea level, the climate here is considered as the second Sa Pa of the Western region.

Girls and boys hold hands to take pictures, play and enjoy the fresh, happier air.
