Tùng Anh•02/05/2023
Camping, lighting a fire all night in the middle of a white plum garden or enjoying a series of delicious specialties of the Moc Chau plateau such as hill chicken, wild vegetables, etc. will make diners exclaim and enjoy.
Located about 200km from the center of Hanoi and 4 hours by car, Moc Chau has long been one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the North, especially during the plum blossom season at the beginning of the year (Photo: Nguyen Son).
Coming to Moc Chau during plum blossom season, visitors can not only freely visit and take check-in photos, but also experience overnight camping activities, enjoying relaxing moments under the old plum trees with wide canopies showing off their colors (Photo: Tran Anh).
The family of Ms. Tran Hien Phuong (in Hanoi ) has gone camping in many places before, but this time they decided to "change the wind" and choose Moc Chau as their picnic spot after Tet. They chose to camp in a plum garden in Na Ka valley, more than 10km from the center of Moc Chau (Photo: Hien Phuong). "My family decided to camp here because the plum blossoms around this garden are at their most beautiful. In addition, we have children, so we are very concerned about the security and safety of our family members. I want my children to fully enjoy the feeling of being immersed in nature, preserving their childhood years close to trees and grass," said Ms. Phuong (Photo: Hien Phuong). During two nights camping in the plum garden, Ms. Phuong and her family enjoyed participating in the campfire activity. Here, the garden owner provides firewood for guests to experience and hot pots, bowls and plates if needed. Visitors can also order some typical dishes in Moc Chau such as wild vegetables, hill chicken, grilled fish, etc. and are served right at the tent (Photo: Hien Phuong). Ms. Phuong also revealed that the downside of camping in the middle of a plum garden is that the toilet area is quite far from the tent. Not to mention the weather here is very cold at night, visitors need to prepare enough blankets, warm mattresses, insulation pads, etc. (Photo: Hien Phuong). A female tourist from Hanoi expressed that the plum blossom season is usually very short, so camping in a plum garden and making a fire overnight is a very special experience for her and her family members (Photo: Hien Phuong). "After the traditional Tet holiday, having to travel a lot, the need to rest before starting work is essential. Camping in a beautiful flower garden that is no different from abroad in cold weather of 2-3 degrees Celsius is a very special experience for my family. Adults have their own space, children can exercise, explore in nature and are no longer interested in technological devices such as phones and televisions," she shared (Photo: Hien Phuong). Mr. Nguyen Son, owner of a 1-hectare ancient plum garden with 500 trees in Na Ka valley, said that on average, he welcomes about 50 visitors each week, mainly families bringing their children to experience camping on weekends (Photo: Ha Phuong Lan). The plum garden has tents, electricity, water and toilets, which visitors can rent for 250,000 VND/tent/day. In addition, the garden owner also serves rustic dishes for guests to enjoy such as grilled chicken, boiled cat cabbage, rice or sticky rice upon request (Photo: Hung Minh Pham). In addition to checking in at the plum garden in full bloom and camping overnight, visitors to Moc Chau in the first days of the year also have the opportunity to pick strawberries, enjoy sweet ripe strawberries at Moc Chau farm, visit the dairy farm or experience Bach Long glass bridge, etc. (Photo: Nong Tu).
From Hanoi, to get to Moc Chau, visitors can drive their own car, take a bus, or a limousine departing from My Dinh station with a ticket price of about 160,000 - 200,000 VND/person/way or book a sleeper bus to Bac Son, Hai Van, etc. if traveling at night. Upon arrival, visitors can rent a taxi or motorbike here to freely explore and experience unique destinations.
Tourists coming to Moc Chau to camp at this time need to follow the weather forecast and fully equip themselves with necessary items because the temperature here at night can drop very low.
