You can employ motorbikes for about VND 100,000, in the event that you want to clear the spider webs off, and crossing the slopes of Lao Cai. Yet, with the danger of downpour in the air, we settle on bouncing on a transport all things being equal.

However, even still, we partake in the broad scene of mountains, valleys and terraced fields as neighborhood ranchers work on paddy fields in the midst of a light layer of fog.
