This village is located in the district of Quan Ba, ​​45 kilometers from the city of Ha Giang, in a beautiful mountain cirque of the famous limestone plateau of Dong Van, recognized in 2010 as a member of the Global Network of Geological Parks by UNESCO.

 

Homestay In The Village Of Nam Dam

The village of the Dao ethnic group of Nam Dam has developed an ecotourism community project based on homestay accommodation. A way to rethink the relationship between travelers and locals, to reinvent the sense of hospitality. Staying in this village, you will be hosted by a Dao family in their traditional house.

The Dao group or any other ethnic groups in Northern Vietnam would absolutely give you the warmest welcome ever if you have the chance to pay them a visit and try the local lifestyle.

 

Meals In A Friendly Atmosphere

You will appreciate the typical architectural work of this region. The houses are built on two floors; their walls are built from compacted earth to make them cool in summer and warm in winter. This gives a beautiful orange color to the houses, especially when the sun comes to lick their facades.

You can enjoy the specialties prepared by your hosts over a wood fire. Although the standard of living has changed, fire remains for the Dao an important element in the spiritual life they strive to maintain. A cuisine focused on the natural that does not lack flavors!

The village and its surroundings are not lacking in interest. You can take a stroll around the village and enjoy the magnificent views of the rice terraces. Some trails lead to nearby villages of Dao, Hmong and Nung ethnic groups. In the village there is a small museum presenting the Dao culture.

You can also visit the beautiful townhouse with rather surprising architecture that successfully combines traditional and modern techniques of Vietnamese houses.

Staying in homestays of ethnic people is always the most common and best choice of foreign travelers to the northern part of Vietnam. Here is one of the highly recommended places that you should go! Do not miss this beautiful summer of 2025 !
