Around the end of June to the beginning of July every year, the summer rains pour in to provide water for the terraced fields of Phong Du Thuong commune. This is the time when the local HMong people go to the fields to plant the summer-autumn crop.

Annually, the area of terraced fields are being expanded further. Local people renovate the fallow land and grow rice to improve the economy, as well as meeting the tourism needs of domestic and foreign tourists. Photo: Thanh Mien.
Under the hard-working hands of farmers, the previously discolored terraced fields have put on a new look, attracting many tourists to visit, promoting the development of the tourism industry. Photo: Thanh Mien.
