Nestled in On Hamlet, Nong Truong Town, Moc Chau District, the Moc Chau Tea Hill is one of the most famous spots in Son La Province.

The hill boasts green and widely-stretched tea fields. Annually, after the winter-spring crop, tea growers in Moc Chau usually prune the tea trees’ old branches so the new tea buds will grow in the following spring-summer crop. Visitors to the Moc Chau tea hill will have a chance to dress in special costumes of Tai or H’Mong ethnic minority groups.

Let’s explore the beauty of Moc Chau Tea Hills through photos taken by our  freelance photographer Nguyen Huu Thanh.
