Tua Chua is a high-mountain district located in the Northeast of Dien Bien Province, approximately 130 km from the centre of Dien Bien Phu Ward. This land is home to various ethnic groups such as the Mong, Thai, and Xa Phang, who still preserve the authentic lifestyles, customs, and traditional cultural identities of the Northwest highlands.

The region is renowned for its untouched nature and unique landscapes, including the Ta Phin stone plateau, ancient pine forests, the Da River, mysterious caves, natural streams, and vibrant ethnic highland markets. By joining this trip, travelers will enjoy homestay accommodations, share meals with locals, and experience "cloud hunting", cruising on the Da River, off-roading, camping, and exploring authentic village life.

Tua Chua is steadily developing tourism into a spearhead economic sector, making it the perfect destination for those who love nature experiences and the raw indigenous culture of Dien Bien.
