This year, the rice terraces in Nam Cang ripen early, signaling the beginning of the highland golden rice season. In the ripe rice season, many tourists visit the villages in Sa Pa town to admire the golden harvest. Few people know that, in Nam Cang, the last village in the southeast of Sa Pa town, there are terraced fields in the middle of the valley, surrounded by mountains, forests, clouds, and sky. Nam Cang's ripe rice season usually starts in August and lasts until about early September every year. Located more than 30 km from Sa Pa town, Nam Cang has not developed tourism, not many people know about it, so the scenery is still wild. Most of the tourists coming here are domestic and self-sufficient like Mr. Ngo. The weather in Nam Cang is currently quite cool, the temperature ranges from 20-25 degrees Celsius, convenient for visitors to experience. To get to Nam Cang, visitors can rent a motorbike from the center of Sa Pa town for about VND 100,000 - 200,000 per day to drop themselves on the winding passes to admire the golden scenery. If you stay overnight, the room price in the village ranges from VND 100,000 - 500,000, depending on the room type, Mr. Phay added. Coming to Nam Cang Valley on these days, you will admire the beautiful scenery when the whole valley is filled with iridescent yellow rice mixed with the green color of the mountains. Interspersed between the terraced fields are simple wooden huts where people's rice is stored during harvest season. "The highland ripe rice season is loved by many people, so the number of visitors to famous villages such as Muong Hum and Ta Phin is quite crowded. If you are looking for a deserted place to watch ripe rice, delight in running and jumping on the fields. Then let's go to Nam Cang," Mr. Ngo said. -------------------------- The post is referenced from VnExpress The photos of golden rice fields in Nam Cang by Mr. Van Ngo
