Visitors will see incredible landscape and visit ethnic minority village with 300 year-old as Sung village and authentic culture interaction with locals: learning traditional Nom Dao writing, the "Nha Triet" - traditional houses, learning about indigo dying, beeswax printing on clothes. Whereast in Da Bia you can try biking, kayaking, rafting on the biggest man-made reservoir in Vietnam.
It's the perfect weekend getaway from Hanoi, and a treasured spot that the local know, but the tourists are yet to discover.
