Dubbed the "cloud paradise" year-round covered with white clouds,
Ta Xua is an address that is no longer strange to tourists who love to explore in
Vietnam Customized Tours. Ta Xua is a highland commune in Bac Yen district, Son La province.
It borders two districts of Bac Yen (Son La) and Tram Tau (Yen Bai). This place is still very wild, there has not been much impact of human hands, so it still
retains the inherent natural beauty. In addition to
winding roads and majestic mountains, the sea of
white clouds floating is the outstanding feature of Ta Xua. The following are check-in places not to be missed when traveling to Ta Xua.
1. Dinosaur Backbone
Ta Xua Dinosaur Backbone is a stretch of road located on the top of Chong Tra mountain, if viewed from a distance, it will look very much like a dinosaur lying face down. January to March every year is the most beautiful time in Ta Xua, very suitable for experienced trekking activities. Ta Xua Dinosaur Backbone is located at an altitude of 1600m above sea level. When standing on it, you will see the whole natural scenery of mountains and hills in the middle of an immense sea of clouds. At the bottom, there are a few beautiful terraced fields and idyllic villages of the Mong ethnic group.

about 1.5 km), so visitors can easily experience it. However,
the terrain is steep and narrow, so you need to have good health and survival skills in difficult terrain conditions. However, nowadays,
the Mong people often ride motorbikes to carry tourists afraid to walk. Each way costs 30,000 VND/person.
2. Dolphin PeakDolphin Peak is a check-in destination that is causing a fever for tourists because of
its prime location and unique shape. The name "Dolphin Peak"
comes from the shape of the rock that looks exactly like the head of a dolphin protruding. With a bottom-up angle, the cliff looks like a dolphin rising out of the water.

very majestic feeling, the difference between heaven and earth. Therefore, as long as you sit on this cliff, you will definitely

mossy patches on the rocks, creating wild and rustic beauty.
