Journey to the North, SAPA (Part III)

In this post, I'm sharing more on the villages and the people in Sapa. During the trekking, there were a tribe of people guiding us along the way especially those muddy rough terrain which are quite challenging to walk (well, at least for beginners). They are quite friendly and helpful and seriously without them, some paths are impossible to get through.

Most of them are carrying a basket at their back storing food and water. That's probably part of the survivor's skills. They are wearing big earrings and some conveniently use their comb as a hair decor too if you notice on my next few photos below.

Let me show you some of their friendly faces...

During our tour, we actually trekked to 4 villages. The first village we visited was the YlinhHo village of the Black H’mong people. That was where we had our lunch also.

We were being served with the local home cook village food. They were very delicious maybe partly because we were too exhausted and hungry after the trekking.

After that, we proceeded over to the suspension bridges to Ta Van village.

We were then picked up by the tour vehicle at Ta Van village and transferred back to hotel after 6 hours of trekking. Here ends my first day of trekking. Below is the photo taken from the vehicle when we were on the way back to hotel.
