Xa Phin is preparing to enter the water-pouring season.
 

The houses, along with their gates, are all roofed with palm leaves.
 

With its year-round humid climate, the area provides favorable conditions for vegetation to thrive.
 

A carpet of green moss covers the rooftops.

The houses look as though they belong in a fairy tale.
 

 
 
 
 
 
The moss-covered roofs help keep the interiors relatively cool during the summer months.
 

The village is home to dozens of palm-leaf-roofed houses.
 

Newly thatched roofs begin to develop moss after about three years.
 

Visitors to the village can admire centuries-old Shan Tuyet tea trees.

 The “Tra Peng” brand has been developed with the support of two travelers from Hanoi.
 

Captivated by Xa Phin’s pristine and unspoiled beauty, they voluntarily chose to stay and

 help local residents improve tea-processing techniques, laying the foundation for the brand.
 

Tea-roasting equipment has been adorned with designs reflecting the cultural identity of the Dao people.

 
 
They have guided local tea producers in making the most of every drop of dew and every gentle breeze to enhance the quality of the tea.
 

In the future, Xa Phin’s prospects will extend far beyond its moss-covered houses and the Tra Peng tea brand.

By fully embracing its majestic natural landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and

the warmth and sincerity of its people, the village is poised to unlock many more opportunities.

Indeed, with its moss-covered homes, the growing “Tra Peng” tea brand, breathtaking nature, distinctive traditions, and hospitable community, Xa Phin has every opportunity to emerge as a unique destination in the years ahead.
