Mu Cang Chai District in the northwestern province of
Yen Bai offers one of
the most stunning landing points for paragliders: Lim Mong Village.
In the H’Mong language, Lim means “village” and Mong stands for the H’Mong

beautiful, yellow rice terraces. In recent years, it has become a favorite
spot for paragliding contests.
