The journey to conquer Marble Mountains begins from Sa Pa town. Tourists can rent a motorbike or car to reach Bat Xat, about 50 km away. The winding road, like a soft silk ribbon, passes through lush green terraced rice fields and peaceful villages, creating a picturesque and magnificent natural landscape.

The journey continues from Sin Suoi Ho village, marking the beginning of the real challenge. The shady trail, deep valleys, and sheer cliffs demand patience and endurance. Each step is an opportunity to immerse oneself in the wondrous beauty of nature.

Standing amidst the clouds, feeling the vastness and grandeur of the land and sky, with white clouds drifting lazily like a gentle river below, all worries seem to vanish, leaving only an indescribable feeling of peace.

This journey not only offers moments of conquest but also opportunities to meet and learn about the lives of the H'Mong and Dao ethnic groups, gathering around a campfire on a cold night, enjoying thang co (a local stew), piglet carried under the arm, corn wine, and more. Conquering Ngu Chi Son is not just a journey of discovering nature, but also a connection with the land, the sky, and the people of this region.

The innocent eyes of ethnic minority children hold curiosity and simple joy.
