Valle de Bac Son: Un mosaico verde entre los picos de la cuenca cárstica

Bac Son is a wide flat valley full of rice fields, ringed by limestone peaks. From the top of the hill you look down on a green and yellow patchwork. It is close to Hanoi but hardly any foreign visitors come here.

Qué puedes hacer

• Climb Na Lay hill About 1,200 steps to the viewpoint. Hard work, but this is the view people come for.
• Cycle through the fields Flat, quiet roads between the villages.
• Visit on a market day Local markets rotate through the villages.

Es bueno saberlo

• Climb early or late. The middle of the day is hot and hazy.
• The golden rice is the best time, usually July and again in November.
• There are few hotels. Homestays are the normal option.
