Ha Giang honors Hoang Su Phi’s terraced rice fields in Culture and Tourism Week 2021

The provincial People’s Committee has recently announced the plan to organize the 6th Culture and Tourism week named “Through the heritages of Hoang Su Phi terraced fields” in 2021. The event is expected to take place from 4 to 30 September and is one of the most important festivals showing the cultural identities of ethnic groups in Western Ha Giang.

Hoang Su Phi’s terraced rice fields are well-known with a large area expanding in 6 communes including Ban Luoc, Ban Phung, Ho Thau, Nam Ty, San Sa Ho, and Thong Nguyen. Thanks to the gorgeous natural beauty, especially in the ripe rice season in September and early October, this place was recognized as National Heritage on 16 September 2012.

There are a lot of activities and programs in the event such as the 2nd Cultural Festival of Mong ethnic groups, Adventurous Racing Car and Motorbike in Vinh Quang Town, Upland Market, the 2nd Paragliding Competition 2021, and so on.

This is a vital event not only to promote the tourism potential of Ha Giang but also to gradually turn tourism into the key economic industry of the province. The People’s Committee also commits to arrange proper programs with proper timeframes as well as strictly comply with the Covid-19 prevention measures throughout the event.
