Travel Sapa Vietnam - Green Roof

Beyond the well-known and colorful market in Sapa, Bac Ha and Can Cau, mountainous area northwest of Vietnam is fascinated with the wildlife in the city and the market in Sin Ho Lai Chau province of the roof.
My friend said it would be a shame if you went in the mountains of northwestern Vietnam, without a stop at the market Sin Ho I have not substantiated his claim very confident at first, until I set foot on the market known as Sin Ho Cho Huyen, and open every Sunday.
Sitting majestically on the set of Sin Ho Lai Chau province, Ho Sin City is on the highest peak over 2000 meters above sea level and surrounded by green mountains and clouds.
The locals call it: Roof province of Lai Chau. The town is also famous for another Northwest Sapa region. But the climate in Sin Ho is even more sour and contemptuous of the SFB. Suddenly, you could be standing in the sea and white clouds, then, only a few minutes later, the rain cascading down like a rumble. But as soon as the last drop of rain falls, the sun rises brilliantly and a fresh wind blowing in a small town.
It takes me four hours to climb the road zig zag Phong Tho city, at the intersection of Highway No. 4D by Sapa and Muong Lay Highway No. 12 to the city. A mountain is covered with smooth as well, but is still slow and complicated to perform. That's why I chose to spend the night in town I have sinned, and wait for the market until the next morning.
In the late afternoon, I Sin City looks like a small house, deserted and dark, sparse and of wood covered with dark gray concrete blocks, and only a few shops and restaurants. It is fortunate that there are several inns and modern mini-hotel at a reasonable price. For only VND250, 000 per double room, you can control in Binh Thanh board. It is no exaggeration to say that the cost, this is the best hotel in Sapa outside the north-western region. It has spacious rooms, good facilities and friendly staff.
Sunday morning, a sleepy town comes to life. All the paths up and down, leading to the city center, waves of tribal people on foot or on horses and motorbikes, all packed with a wide range of agricultural products to the market. These tribes come from remote villages up and down mountains. They are the Flower Hmong, Hmong Blue, Black Hmong, Lu, Black and Red Dao Dao mm.
After a morning market, I take a trip trek to the village of Pha Xo Lin II, only three kilometers from downtown. The village is home to the tribe Khau Dao, also known as Dao sewing, or Dao black, wearing black trousers richly embroidered with flower signature, trees and patterns of stars seen in many Dao costumes. They also carry a black apron front suspension with a wide blue ribbon around its smooth exterior, along a plain black turban.
The village is very beautiful and poetic, with dark wooden houses covered with black stone tiles and stone surrounded by hedges. This season, peach and mango will ripen in a riot of red and yellow. It is delightful to stroll through the village, where you can take a seat under the fruit trees to enjoy the beautiful lanterns swaying in the wind and cold and fresh, sweet taste. Lin Pha Xo village is famous for its special red handles gold, with its sweet flavor and taste similar to jackfruit.
In addition to its delicious fruits, Lin Pha Xo village is a shopping paradise of brocade and embroidery products. It is common to see women sitting on the threshold of Dao in your yard or under the fruit trees sewing with passion. While you're there, do not miss to buy clothes, scarves or anything decent people of the tribes. Their products are very sophisticated and beautiful, as befits their name in the fashion tribe-Dao.
