09:30- after having had a restful night and enjoyable breakfast, it is
time to take an 8 km walk to visit 2 villages of the red Dzao people, the
H’mong who are located in Giang Ta Chai
Su Pan villages.
Situated at the edge of Muong Hoa Valley, Giang Ta Chai is gaining popularity
as one of the most scenic and interesting locations for visitors who enjoy
experiencing the colorful traditional customs and costumes that are always on
show here. While Supan is considered as a less travelled and more withdrawn
village because of its small population base.
There are breath
taking and beautiful landscapes throughout this mountainous area, including a
stunning waterfall, rattan bridges, and some exquisite ferns and orchids that
drape from the overhanging branches of so much lush vegetation. After Giang Ta
Chai and Su Pan visits, it is hard to have to leave this area, but we again
have opportunity to do more exploration in Sapa town, so the bus ride allows
some recovery time... and lots of photos and stories will no doubt be told on
the brief ride back.
