Chợ Can Cấu
Located in the mountains near the Chinese border, Can Cau market attracts different ethnic minorities, mainly the Flower Hmong, the Blue Hmong and the Giay (pronounced “Zay”). The Hmong are easily recognised by their colourful traditional costumes, predominantly orange for the Flower Hmong and blue for the Blue Hmong. Unfortunately, we didn’t see any Giay. Or maybe they were invisible among the riot of colours of the Hmong. Visit the market and drive back to Bac Ha town center. Have lunch in the local restaurant.
