VietNamNet Bridge - Located at an altitude of over 2,000m with a cool climate all year round, Y Ty in the northern mountainous province of Lao Cai is a favorite destination of domestic and international tourists.

Y Ty is at the back of Nhiu Co San mountain with the top at 2,660 meters.  Y Ty is covered by white clouds much of the time and the sun rarely shines 12 hours per day. The roads to Y Ty are zigzag trails among the forest leaves and looming houses in the cloud. People feel like they have stepped into another world when they come to Y Ty.

Y Ty’s stunning scenery changes with each season. In May and June it’s time of watering terraced rice fields. These fields look like sparkling mirrors shining under the blazing sun of summer.

In late August to October, the rice fields are in the harvest season. The yellow color of ripe paddy with the green of unripe rice plants creates an interesting picture.

In December to February, the peach and plum flowers bloom. And if you are lucky, you can experience the amazing cloud paradise.

Below are pictures of Y Ty in the summer:
