Located 1,500m above sea level, Sin Suoi Ho village is home to the Mong in Sin Suoi Ho commune, Phong Tho district, Lai Chau province. Sin Suoi Ho has a cool and fresh climate all year round, which is a favorable condition for developing eco-tourism.
Sin Suoi Ho in the Mong language means "golden spring", conjuring up the image of a peaceful small village, full of fruit trees with waterfalls and streams whispering all night and day.
The village is surrounded by a majestic primeval forest. From the forest, tourists can follow an old mossy stone path to explore the Heart waterfall. Since 2015, the village mobilized all of the households to gather pebbles to make a unique road. Now it is easier for tourists to travel, enjoy and savor the wilderness in the "forbidden place" of nature.
Going to the village, tourists will be surprised at the wooden and earthen houses with the typical architecture of the Mong ethnic minority. The unique highlight of these houses is a hand-lined stone fence surrounding them.
The village also attracts tourists due to its rich cultural and spiritual life that include charming love songs and khen (pan-flutes) sounds of the Mong. Women in the village still wear and weave traditional clothes made from linen. Along with that, traditional professions such as brocade embroidering and the technique of beeswax drawing on cloth are still done by the Mong.
The village has 136 households, all of whom are Mong, out of which 10 households are engaged in community-based tourism. Sin Suoi Ho can accommodate more than 100 tourists per day and night with prices ranging from 70,000-100,000 dong per person every night. On average, each year, the village welcomes about 100,000 domestic and foreign visitors.
According to the head of the village, Vang A Chinh, with its rich and diverse natural and cultural resources, Sin Suoi Ho has drawn many domestic and foreign tourists. The village has become a bright spot for community-based tourism in Lai Chau province due to the professional attitudes of the locals.
