Hanoi: Sa Pa Untamed Matra – Ta Phin Trekking & Bac Ha Market

Off the Beaten Path - North/Northeast Sapa (Matra – Ta Phin – Bac Ha) SAPA UNTAMED - Step off the well-worn trail and head north, a region most visitors never reach, stop in Matra - Ta Phin village to meet the Red Dao people, famous for their intricate embroidery and centuries-old herbal bath tradition, continue on to Bac Ha, the "White Plateau" of the Flower Hmong, where a vibrant hilltribe market still bursts with color every week, just as it has for generations. This route is for travelers who want to see the other Sapa - slower, more authentic, and far from the crowd.
