The list of suggestions focuses on four groups: Long-term travel, Wildlife exploration, Festival season and Spring flower season. Among them, Vietnam is in the top 6 countries most suitable for long-term travel. This is also a suitable suggestion when on March 15, Vietnam will fully open to international tourists.
According to Wanderlust, the spring weather in March is the most ideal time to explore the mountainous regions in Northwest Vietnam. The stable temperature while the humidity gradually decreases, the little rainfall will be favorable conditions for tourists to visit the villages around Sa Pa or Mai Chau.
Muong Hoa Valley in Sa Pa
Located close to the Chinese border, Sa Pa is a diverse mountainous region and a destination that attracts many international tourists. The trails leading to Giang Ta Chai and Lao Chai villages wind along terraced fields. Visitors to Sa Pa also have the opportunity to interact with the H'Mong and Dao people who have lived here for more than 200 years.
About 150 km southwest of Hanoi, Mai Chau valley is also rated by Wanderlust as a suitable choice for trekking trips into the villages. Coming to Mai Chau, visitors can stay in traditional Thai stilt houses, or enjoy dishes and drink wine specialties in Pom Coong village.
