Nestled amid the mountains of Tan Son commune, Bac Hoa village is emerging as a captivating new destination on the tourism map of the northern province of Bac Ninh. With its traditional nha tuong trinh (rammed earth houses) topped by yin-yang tiled roofs and the gentle melodies of sloong hao folk songs echoing through the hills, the village preserves the distinctive cultural identity of the Nung ethnic community.

Located about 120 km from Hanoi, Bac Hoa can be reached via the Hanoi–Lang Son Expressway, followed by a scenic drive along National Highway 279. The journey itself is part of the experience, with winding roads cutting through lush valleys and rolling hills./.
