About
8 – 9 Km southeast of Sapa town on the west bank of
Muong Hoa River, Lao Chai is a commune composed by three large
villages with over 100 families of the Black H’mong
ethnic. From a high point of the main road 8 Km from Sapa
town, great view of the whole village open wide to offer the
marvelous panorama of the village, backed by high mountains
and facing the river. The H’mong people in this village
experience rice intensive farming on the lower land near the
bottom of the valley as main source of earning while growing
corn on the mountain slopes at the back of the village. |
