Nestled in the tranquil Mai Chau Valley, Pom Coong Village offers an immersive experience into the cultural life of the Thai ethnic minority. While most tourists explore it by car or on foot, cycling to Pom Coong village opens up a far more rewarding journey — one filled with panoramic rice fields, warm village smiles, and authentic rural life.

In the heart of northern Vietnam’s Cao Bang Province, nestled between rice paddies and limestone mountains, lies Phuc Sen Forging Village—a community where the clang of hammers still echoes through the hills. With more than 300 years of history, Phuc Sen is famous for its traditional blacksmithing, producing hand-forged knives, tools, and farming equipment entirely by hand.
