Life in "Asia's most beautiful village"

Ta Van has just been ranked among the six most beautiful "hilltop villages" in Asia by the South China Morning Post (SCMP) of Hong Kong (China) – alongside other famous names in China, Bhutan, the Philippines, and India. With its stunning natural scenery, friendly people, and the efforts of the local people to preserve their cultural identity, Ta Van deserves this recognition.

Located 12 km from Sa Pa ward ( Lao Cai province), Ta Van is as beautiful as a painting, with villages nestled beside magnificent terraced rice fields.

The new Ta Van commune was formed by merging the old communes of Muong Hoa, Hoang Lien, and Ta Van. It is home to the Mong and Giay ethnic groups.

The natural scenery is beautiful, with mountains and clouds blending together.

One of the most beautiful rice-growing routes in Ta Van is located in Lao Hang Chai village.

These peaceful houses are nestled amidst terraced rice fields cultivated with the skillful techniques of local farmers.

The people of Ta Van always prioritize preserving their traditional cultural identity. This is a key attraction for both domestic and international tourists.

The children in Ta Van happily play amidst the pristine natural scenery, where the clouds and sky blend together.

Ta Van boasts the pristine Seo My Ty lake, located about 20 km from the center of Ta Van commune, and is the highest artificial lake in Vietnam.

Ta Van still maintains a slow pace of life, with its people exploiting their cultural identity to create economic value. (In the photo: Foreign tourists enjoy the experience of beeswax painting in Ta Van).

Simply by following the terraced rice fields in Ta Van, visitors can take in a breathtaking natural beauty rarely found elsewhere.

The allure of its pristine nature and rich cultural identity leaves a positive impression on visitors. That's why Ta Van is considered one of the most beautiful hilltop villages in Asia.
