$45.00
Descriptions:
Begin your day with an unforgettable sunrise at a mountain pass roughly 15 kilometers from the city. This vantage point offers stunning views of both the Lai Chau and Sin Ho valleys.
Upon returning to the city, recharge with a hot drink at a cozy and unique location, perfect for preparing for the activities ahead.
Next, dive into the energetic ambiance of Lai Chau market, held every Thursday and Sunday morning. It's a vibrant gathering spot for ethnic minorities who come to trade goods, livestock, handicrafts, or simply enjoy the colorful atmosphere.
Back in the city, we’ll visit two remarkable pagodas—the one perched above Lai Chau and the picturesque Linh Son Pagoda on its scenic promontory.
Enjoy a hearty picnic in the park at the city's elevated grounds, where you'll be treated to panoramic views of majestic mountains and the peak of Tan Lien Son.
Take a calming stroll around the expansive "main square," complete with two serene adjoining lakes. It's an excellent way to appreciate the tranquil beauty of the surroundings.
If time allows, choose between exploring the scenic tea plantation hills on the city's outskirts or visiting the ancient 500-year-old Heritage Banyan Tree, which boasts impressive dimensions at 21 meters tall and nearly 11 meters in circumference, located around 10 kilometers from the city.
