Foreign tourists show off their experience harvesting rice with farmers in Ha Giang

Sil and his companion threshing rice in Lung Cu on October 25.

Sil, a Romanian tourist, chose to explore the Ha Giang loop from October 25 to 27. He said the most interesting experience was harvesting rice with the locals with the support of a tour guide.

After the trip, he posted a video on his personal page to show off his experience. In the video, a group of seven foreign tourists stood in a rice field in Lung Cu. Some of the group held large bundles of rice, while others threshed the rice with local women to separate the grains from the straw.

"Despite the language barrier, we still laughed happily together," said the tourist, adding that the cultural experience made the trip unforgettable.

The unit that leads the tour group to experience rice harvesting activities said that they often incorporate programs to experience local life into the tour, for example cutting and threshing rice if it is harvest season.

In addition, they also often let visitors visit local people's houses, harvest potatoes, cassava or cut grass to feed livestock like the locals.

These hands-on experiences are popular with guests because most of them have never seen anything like it. A deeper understanding of local culture is also always a requirement of guests with tour companies in Ha Giang.
