Vietnam: Learning about the Red Dzao tribe in Ta Phin Village

The road to Ta Phin Village was full of rocks, mud, soil and puddles, especially when you get there on a motorbike, the way would just get more and more interesting. Sapa had always been in my mind as a Highland town with incredible views of terrace rice fields which are so popular when people talk about the North of Vietnam. However, it was not the only thing I looked for in Sapa because I came here to experience the different colours of Vietnam, the colours that you can only find in different tribes and villages. So there I went to a place called Bản Tả Phìn.

Being one of the few tourists there, I walked through the traditional Red Dzao and Black Hmong village when this cute little Dzao girl caught my eye..
