To move to Moc Chau, you can go yourself by car or motorbike. More simply, you can book a tour of Moc Chau (remember to choose a time with a location to go to Thung Cuong village). After arriving at Nong Truong Moc Chau town, you will need to go to GG Map and travel by motorbike about 3km to reach the village. The road to the city is quite steep and narrow, so only motorbikes can move quickly. However, the two sides of the road are lovely with many different types of forest flowers. So on the way, young people often linger to take pictures and have gorgeous check-in photos.

The life of the Hmong ethnic people here is very idyllic, rustic, and attached to nature. The beautiful tiny houses on stilts with wood stoves and the innocent and joyful children’s playing are something you can quickly see when visiting the village. People here live on hills and forests. They are almost all self-sufficient and very good at knitting, weaving, making jewelry. Their traditional costumes are all made by themselves. Dresses with colorful colors and many motifs are typical in the costumes of the Mong people.

Although the economy here is still under-developed, the joy has never stopped on their faces, especially with the kids here. Even if their clothes are old, they are still delighted even if they don’t have enough shoes on cold days. The laughter and innocent play of children will sometimes make long-distance travelers feel warm and forget about fatigue immediately.

Thang Co is made from horse meat. After cleaning the meat, the Mong people will cut it into small pieces and marinate them with spices to make the meat-rich. Next, they cook the bones and horse organs to make the broth sweet. The most remarkable thing is about this broth. They use 12 special spices in the Northwest, such as cardamom, cinnamon, etc., to give Thang Co an attractive aroma and particular delicious taste. Then the meat will be simmered and marinated with spices. This one is a famous dish of the Mong people. It is a specialty that tourists love very much.

Another dish that tourists love and often buy as a gift after each trip is buffalo meat. The kitchen buffalo meat is made entirely from fresh beef tenderloin and corn. The Hmong keep the meat on the stove until the smoke of the woodstove cooks it. This dish has an extraordinary taste. Chopped and squeezed a little lemon is highly suitable for drinking parties. Having fun sometimes runs out of plates. Therefore, this specialty dish is highly famous in every visit to Thung Cuong Moc Chau village.
