About 50km from the center of Dien Bien Phu City, Dien Bien Province, Nam Cum Village (Nam Cum), Ngoi Cay Commune, Muong Ang District suddenly became famous and was likened to a "fairy tale village" in real life because there are thousands of ancient Bauhinia trees blooming white in the mountains and forests.

Surprisingly, this ancient forest of Bauhinia flowers has only become a popular tourist destination for about 2 years, although the village was formed decades ago. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
Images of Nam Cum village started going viral on social media in mid-March this year and created a wave of attraction for many tourists. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
Ms. Lo Thi Ha - Chairwoman of the Women's Union of Ngoi Cay Commune, Muong Ang District, Dien Bien Province (local) said that before Nam Cum village was established, there were only 1-2 Thai households living here. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
“Around the 1980s, Hmong ethnic families began to migrate here and gradually formed a village community,” said Ms. Ha. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
Up to now, Nam Cum village has more than 70 households, mainly Mong ethnic people and most of them are poor because they only make a living by farming. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
Because the village is isolated and the number of households is sparse, it will not be until early 2025 that Nam Cum village will be connected to the national grid under the "Lighting Up Dien Bien" program. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
Mr. Dinh Van Son - Acting Chairman of Muong Ang District People's Committee said that the beauty of the ancient Ban forest in Nam Cum village was only discovered about 2 years ago. Some young people went on a tour to explore and recorded beautiful images and shared them on social networking platforms. After that, the Ban flower forest attracted a lot of attention.

“Immediately after discovering the potential of Nam Cum village, Muong Ang district decided to build this place into a community tourism village to promote its unique and rare beauty. At the same time, it also helped the local people gradually change their way of doing business and improve their lives,” said Mr. Son. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
Since the beginning of 2025, Nam Cum village has always had many tourist groups coming to explore and experience. Especially, right when the Ban flowers are in full bloom, this "fairy tale village" has attracted many photographers and journalists. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
From the images that are going viral on social networks, Ms. Tran Thi Thu Dong - President of the Vietnam Association of Photographic Artists has also decided to go to Nam Cam village to capture beautiful images of the ancient Ban flower forest. Photo: Van Thanh Chuong
