Ha Thanh Village: Poetic in Winter

Located on the outskirts of Ha Giang 1 Ward, Tuyen Quang Province, the Ha Thanh Community-Based Cultural Tourism Village has so far preserved its traditional beauty. Even though it is neither the ripe rice season nor springtime, amid the cold winter days, Ha Thanh still appears stunning in the midst of the peaceful highland region.

Despite being close to the urban area, the Ha Thanh Community-Based Cultural Tourism Village retains the strong identity of a traditional Tay village.

Nearly 100% of Ha Thanh’s population is Tay ethnic people.

The distinctive feature of the village lies in its traditional stilt houses roofed with palm leaves.

Every year, Ha Thanh welcomes a large number of visitors who come to explore and experience its cultural space.

In the cold of winter, Ha Thanh continues to reveal an irresistible charm.

With nearly 100% of its population being Tay people whose lives are closely tied to agriculture, the locals are exceptionally friendly and hospitable. Visit Ha Thanh at least once to truly feel the slow-paced, emotional rhythm of life in a countryside that is well worth living in.
