Y Ty: Terrassen über den Wolken

Y Ty sits high in the mountains near the Chinese border. The rice terraces are as good as the ones near Sa Pa, but almost nobody comes here. In the early morning the village often sits above a sea of cloud.

Was Sie tun können

• Watch the cloud sea Early morning, usually September to April. Get up before sunrise.
• See the terraces The best months are September, when the rice turns gold, and May, when the fields are flooded.
• Visit the Saturday market Ha Nhi and Hmong families come down from the villages.
• Ride the border road The road along the Red River towards Lung Po.

Gut zu wissen

• Very basic. A few homestays, not much else.
• The road from Sa Pa is slow and winding.
• Cold in winter. Bring warm clothes.
• It is a border area, so bring your passport.
