Spanning centuries, these terraces do more than feed the local communities; they form an area of breathtaking beauty and change with the seasons. It could be said that the terraced fields, whether in the bright green of developing time or the golden hues of harvest time, are simply magnificent.

You can feel in these houses a strong bond with nature due to their simplicity and functionality. You’ll learn about farming work, rice growing, corn farming on terraced fields, and how this all provides for their needs.
Your Hmong guide will introduce you to all aspects of their daily life: traditional clothing and jewelry, dynamic festivals, and rituals marking important occasions. Perhaps you’ll get the opportunity to participate in some handy crafts like weaving or dyeing fabrics with indigo, a plant-based dye. Such interactions lend great insight into the rich cultural heritage of the Hmong and also the challenges faced by them in preserving their traditions within a rapidly changing world order.
