From #Hanoi, take a minibus for two hours to reach #Meizhou #maichau Get away from the city and head into the mountains of #Vietnam. The temperature is much cooler, and the guesthouse is in the middle of the rice fields. The rice seedlings were not planted in February, so it would be more beautiful if the whole area were green in April or May. The main activity in Mai Chau is cycling through the rice fields. There are no convenience stores, no high-end restaurants, Meals can only be cooked by the guesthouse host. It’s also a new experience to be able to taste real Vietnamese farm food! Pu Luong Nature Reserve is nearby Mai Chau After the beginning of spring, farmers are busy turning the soil. I was lucky enough to see the rice fields that had just been planted. Obviously technology has advanced. But Vietnamese farmers still retain the old farming methods. I spent some time studying the operation of the waterwheel. After all, water wheels in other places have become mere decorations. Walking along the fields feels like going back in time. #NorthVietnam #NorthVietnamAttractions #NorthVietnamSecrets #FreeTravel #NatureReserve #Puluong
