Visit paradise of Lai Chau - Sin Ho Plateau

Sin Ho, a land name hides many interesting things to explore. At the time of wandering on the "roof" of Lai Chau, my footsteps seemed tireless. Because my eye can see beautiful views like painting at anytime, anywhere.

Sin Ho Plateau is far from Lai Chau center more than 40km. The number is small, but to reach Sin Ho, you have to go through many winding roads or towering slopes. Majestic and wild forest, mountain space open up before your eye.

Being considered as a second Sa Pa of the Northwest, but the weather in Sin Ho is even more “kinky” than Sapa. In brief time, clouds spill over from the deep valleys, small town is loomed in the mists cold. Again in brief time, it will rain, even heavy rain. The massive rainfall pour onto green forests and all places. But short time later, the sun will “rush back” and shine brilliantly.

When the fog clears, the rain disappears, beautiful scenery appears again with the generous, fresh and incredible clarity. Wandering on Sin Ho plateau, visitors can be amazed before mountain peaks stretched white clouds, at the same time shocked suddenly by a full yellow sunny valley. The terraced fields prepare entering harvest season also add more color to a both strange and familiar painting. A simple cottage equivocal in green forest and mountain also awakes our curiosity.

Besides, visitors can be interested in any casual daily life here. An ethnic woman carries water on back, is shamble to the hill top. A little girl smiling rides buffalo coming back home at dusk. An old Hmong woman chases chicken next to slender barrier. Land and peace is so rustic and peaceful that makes our heart more beautiful more quite.

Going deeply into remote villages, I felt like I was lost in fairy space many times: A lovely small wooden house, some funny pigs find food at the edge of forest, also some ethnic people sit and talk on roadside, look strangers with bewildered eyes.

Up to Sin Ho, if you have chance to join Sin Ho market, you will find a multifold character of people living here. People from remote villages pour into the market with goods carried on back which are mostly made by themselves. The murmur of selling and purchasing, colorful clothes, gentle faces, etc that all create a colorful picture and full of vivid sound of beautiful life.
