Mai Chau, a picturesque rural district in Hoa Binh Province located about 140 kilometers from Hanoi, is renowned for its breathtaking scenery—lush rice paddies, towering limestone mountains, and peaceful valleys. Home to several ethnic minority communities, especially the White Thai people who live in traditional stilt houses, Mai Chau offers a rich cultural tapestry alongside its natural beauty. One of the region’s highlights is Nhim Cave, a striking natural wonder that adds to the area’s rural charm and scenic appeal.
