The Tu Le Valley, which is in Van Chan District of Yen Bai Province, is a must-visit on your adventure trip to Yen Bai Province and Mu Cang Chai. The valley is conveniently located by Route 32 between Hanoi and Mu Cang Chai District.
Adventure Travel Guide to the Tu Le Valley
The Tu Le Valley is surrounded by three high mountains: Khau Song, Khau Than and Khau Pha. The valley is inhabited by Black Thai, White Thai and Hmong Peoples. Those who travel from Hanoi to Mu Cang Chai via Route 32 can not help stopping at the site to adore the breathtaking valley of Tu Le at the base of the Khau Pha Pass.
While local tourist facilities are to meet demand of travelers on different budgets, by far Tu Le attracts more adventure travelers who travel to Mu Cang Chai to adore the stunning rice terraces.
Weather and Climate, Best Time to Visit
Like other places in Northern Vietnam, Tu Le enjoys 4 seasons per year. It rains in the period from May through October during which time there may be typhoons which may cause torrential rain, flash floods and landslides in the area around Tu Le.
But Tu Le Valley is beautiful mostly for rice terraces surrounded by sublime mountains. Rice requires water and the best time to visit Tu Le is when the terraces are filled up with water before a rice crop, during the rice crop and just before harvest time. The beautiful moments include:
- Late May – early June: rice terraces filled up with water which makes them like amazing mirrors reflecting flights amid the sublime nature.
- Late September – early October: most beautiful time to visit Tu Le as rice terraces turn into yellow and golden colors against the green backdrop of the mountains; it is just stunning!
