Photos from the mountainside

When you start to get outside the city, the mountains rise up like jagged teeth. The elevation change from the road to the peaks you can feel the pressure changing in your ears.

We went on a day trip to visit the Hmong village.

This group of traditional Vietnamese people live high in the mountainside. They also have some amazing textiles that they Manufacturer with hemp then dye with Wild indigo plants.

My next two posts will feature images from the strip.

The first set of images here are from stopping at a small tea plantation almost at the village. Hiking around the slopes that had a swing that would swing-out over a steep drop off.

And yes I did swing on it however my friend was a bit too scared to do this as well. lol.

Here are some photos.
