The North

It is well known that the Northern part of the country was the place where the nation was born and kept rigorously older Vietnamese traditions. The North of Vietnam can be divided into three regions: the Red River Delta, the midland and the high mountains of the far North. The last two are very attractive in their landscapes of extraordinary beauty and the diversity of ethnic groups that inhabit in the land. Across the roads in the Northern mountains, you can see villages with wooden houses with thatched roof and lovely children playing around their home yard….. As we move up to the higher land, we can see pine covering slopes living in perfect harmony with palm trees and villages sleeping in the midday heat.
