Located about 180 km from Hanoi , Moc Chau district (Son La province) has approximately 1,300 hectares of plum orchards. This year, the plum blossoms bloomed early, even in late September and early October. However, not as many tourists know about it and come to take photos as in previous years.

Tourists should prepare a light jacket if visiting early in the morning or going out in the evening.

This is where the earliest-blooming plums are found in Moc Chau. Some of the plum orchards with early blossoms here include those of Bich Hanh and Anh Tuyet...

These flowers bloom for only about 1-2 weeks before fading, and the tree begins to nourish itself to bear fruit.

Besides the vast tea hills and orchards laden with ripe roses and oranges, the plum blossoms also stir the heart. The plum orchard I visited was Bich Hanh plum orchard in Tan Lap commune, which is the first plum orchard to bloom in Moc Chau.” Photo: May Nguyen The plum blossoms, blooming out of season and early, adorn the green plateau with their pristine white color.
