Mai Chau was described as “a semi-isolated village in Vietnam…surrounded by limestone cliffs and green rice paddies, populated largely by members of the ethnic White Thai tribe…Vibrant, verdant green rice paddies surround the town on all sides, and dramatic hills rise up on either side of the valley. The town itself isn’t particularly stunning, but it’s when one gets out into the countryside or head up into the hills that the breathtaking views get better around every corner. There are also several interesting markets to check out, as well as some nearby caves.”

With many foreign tourists, Mai Chau is the interesting ideal for trekking trips or cycling options to discover the natural beauty of the region and exotic culture of minority groups.
