New features of Bac Ha tourism
Bac Ha has a lot of potential to develop mountain climbing and experience tourism, but this is the new type of land for the "white plateau". The places to experience mountain climbing to watch the sunset, sunrise, hunting clouds, explore nature in Bac Ha are almost unknown to many tourists. Compared to many other places, the places to climb and experience in Bac Ha are easy to conquer, it can allow to go back in the day, suitable for the time and health of most tourists.Ngai Thau grass hill (Na Hoi commune) consists of many flat mountain peaks, along with highland-like meadow, about 3 km from the town center, which is the climbing destination chosen by many tourists to explore when traveling to Bac Ha. The road to travel by motorbike combined with walking with many steep slopes is a challenge that visitors must overcome when they want to explore Ngai Thau. The road is not too difficult to go because many rugged roads have been poured with concrete to ride motorbikes to the foothills. From the foothills, visitors can choose from many trails to climb to the top of the mountain. Ngai Thau is not the highest mountain peak in the region, but it has the very convenient location to watch the sunset and the sunrise. Ngai Thau Peak has an open space, wide view, not covered by other high peaks, combined with the long grass, the scenery here is enough to captivate visitors’ attraction.
