Thai People’s Traditions and Way of Life

Mo Village is a cultural treasure for travelers on Mai Chau Ethnic tours; for the Thai people, daily life is wrapped up in their close companionship with nature. The traditional stilt houses show ingenuity out of the environmental respect of the Thai community and are designed so that besides functionality, they can be beautiful. These houses will keep you cool during summer and protect you against floodwaters.

Farming and weaving textiles are both now the epicenters of village activity. When visiting the villages, guests from Mai Chau Tours can witness villagers practicing the preparation of rice fields and embroidering complex designs onto textiles that reflect deeply rooted cultural meaning. These techniques have been passed down in a well-developed tradition spanning generations and have become a part of the Thai way of life.

It is during festivals like the Xen Muong Festival that rituals, traditional music, and dances curved like silk at the roots of the sacred Thi tree come alive. Adding flavors to these are local foods such as bamboo rice, among others, making events one huge sensory indulgence. These are carefully preserved to make sure that the culture would bloom and welcomes travelers into its fold.

The Sacred Thi Tree: A Symbol of Resilience

This thousand-year-old Thi tree faces westward and is a must-see for any tourist on a Mai Chau Ethnic tours. Standing tall among resilience and heritage, proud, in Mo Village, it is recognized as a heritage tree of Vietnam, its sprawling roots and weathered back having seen history change over centuries. During the French and American wars, it stood silent, witnessing the event and offering solace to resistance fighters.

Today, the Thi tree remains the focal point of Thai spiritual activities and communal ceremonies. Seasonal rituals under its canopy, as well as its sweet aroma throughout its fruiting season, enthrall both locals and tourists. For travelers on Mai Chau Tours, the Thi tree offers a deep linkage with history and culture, towards which still soars high the indomitable spirit of the Thai people.

All the arrangement, plans, pick-up & drop-off services, hotels, vehicles, sightseeing tours and guides were spot on and excellent. Did 4 nights Hanoi, 1 night Hà Long Bay cruise, 3 nights Hoian, 4 nights Saigon and 1 night in Can Tho. It was totally awesome. Every part of the journey was superbly arranged and planned. I will highly recommend Impress Travel for anyone interested in visiting Vietnam. Very organized and reliable!
