Hoang Su Phi Terraced Fields Recognised As National Heritage

Hoang Su Phi Terraced Fields Recognised As National Heritage
The terraced fields in Hoang Su Phi District of the Northern Province of Ha Giang were officially recognised as a National Heritage Site by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism on November 1.

The terraces are evidence of centuries of wet rice cultivation by ethnic minorities in Hoang Su Phi, including the Nung, Dao and La Chi, and they have great cultural and historical value in addition to being aesthetically beautiful.

The fields were among the sites recently recognised by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism as significant parts of the nation’s heritage, including three other landscapes: the Trang An caves in Ninh Binh Province, the Pu Sam Cap cave system in Lai Chau Province, and the Chua Tien caves in Hoa Binh Province.
