Vietnam - The North - Sapa
Sapa a valley filled with cascading rice paddies close to the Chinese border is home to several minority groups.
Many of which travel from nearby villag
es to sell their wares.
The Black Hmong travel back and forth from Sapa to their homes in Ta Phin. On this 12km stretch we pass young girls carrying heavy loads, boys riding water buffalo and young children playfully pushing rustic carts on steep winding roads.
