3 nights 4 days nature friendly travel to Moc Chau, Son La, 4 hours from Hanoi

 I went on a trip to Moc Chau, Son La Province. I came later than usual, so Hanoi felt even hotter, so I went on an emergency vacation^^ First of all, the distance on the map is 180km, but considering the bad road conditions, you should set aside 4~5 hours to leave.  I tried the sleeper bus this time, but to tell you the conclusion, I recommend just taking a 5~6-seater limousine. First of all, the price is the same at 250,000 dong (about 14,000 won), but it takes a long time and is quite uncomfortable. ㅠ I'm 176cm tall,,, and I can't stretch my legs out... The width is narrow, so I have to keep mindful of the movements of the person next to me...  It was supposed to depart from My Dinh Terminal at 11:00, but it actually departed at 11:45 when people got on, and it was 4:30 when I got off at Muong Thanh Hotel... I took a limousine when I returned to Hanoi, and it was much more comfortable, arriving in 3 and a half hours... Of course, if this limousine only drove cars, it would take less than 3 hours.  In conclusion, going by car is the best... I thought it would be nice to have a car when I arrived. However, the road conditions are worse than the road to Sapa, and there are a lot of trucks, so you have to drive carefully. It's not a great view, but I wanted to stop by a place called mai chau top view while passing by, and if you drive, you can do that too^^  It's right in the middle of Hanoi to Moc Chau, so it would be perfect to take a break here. I just looked at the scenery from the car while passing by and swallowed my regret... Of course, don't expect iced Americano ㅎㅎ  The first tourist attraction we finally arrived at was the Thác Dải Yếm waterfall. Maybe because it rained a lot, there was so much water that it was scary. But I thought the rain was cool and nice. When the rain stopped, it got a little hotter, so it wasn't good to walk around. If you walk a little further up from the waterfall, you'll come across a small glass bridge. The entrance fee to the waterfall is 40,000 VND, but there's a separate entrance fee for the glass bridge. 100,000 dong (6,000 won)^^ Before climbing the bridge, they rent traditional costumes like this, and the price is 40,000 dong (2,500 won).  The next place we went to was Bạch Long Glass Bridge (White Dragon). Actually, it's not that far from the city, but since I had time and it was only 10 minutes from the waterfall, I decided to just go around it all in one day. I was worried that the service would be a bit lacking since it was built not long ago, but Vietnam is Vietnam after all ㅎㅎ  Once you enter the entrance, there is a Guinness World Records certification photo like this. It means that it is the world's longest glass bridge (632m). The entrance fee is also 650,000 dong (40,000 won), which is 6 times more^^ However, it is very inconvenient for those with impaired legs to use, so if you are with your parents, it is better to be satisfied with the glass bridge above the waterfall.  It's a bit expensive, but it's worth going. This is also the purpose of this trip to Mokjou^^ However, rather than going to two glass bridges in one day, it would be better to divide it into two days and take it easy~  If you compare it to the waterfall glass bridge photo above, there is definitely a difference in height ㅎㅎ Even after crossing the bridge, there is a long course like a walking course. I think the organizers wanted to create a tourist course that you can spend about 2~3 hours on.  It's just right up to here, but the next part is the problem. After that, you have to walk down the stairs for about 20~30 minutes, and I think you have to wear sneakers, and most people get tired here. Actually, I was just a little hot, but I think the elderly would have a very hard time here.  When you go down, you go to the electric car, go to the rainbow course on the upper left, ride the tires once, and then go to the store near the central swimming pool, and you can get a free drink with the coupon you received when you entered. However, it seems like it would be more satisfying if you come back in 1~2 years.^^ There are still many places being prepared...  The train above is also cool, but it seems to be unfinished.. Next is accommodation. I think you can stay one day at Family 64 mộc châu and one day at Phoenix Resort (both 40,000~70,000 won). However, the room condition and meals are very disappointing. I got bitten by a flea or tick at Phoenix Resort, and I'm still suffering from it ㅠ ㅠ  Since Mok Chau's concept is nature-friendly camping, it's good to enjoy nature in a cool way, but the accommodation and meals are a bit disappointing. There aren't many options other than BBQ and salmon restaurants. Hotel food is also not very satisfying ㅎㅎ Mường Thanh Holiday Moc Chau Hotel has better rooms and meals, but this place is not Moc Chau camping concept^^  It's a great place to let your kids loose especially if you have kids ㅎㅎ I think it's good to just lie down on that wooden bench and look at the sky. If you have one more day and have the energy, you can add Hang Dơi Cave to your schedule, but I just went to rest so I didn't go. My body still itches... but if you want to escape the hot Hanoi and go somewhere, I recommend a trip to Moc Chau.^^
