According to geological researchers, the terrain of Mu Cang Chai  is a strongly divided, with a large slope, the land is mainly red yellow feralite soil. This explains why the Mong people have to take advantage of low hills with large areas, moderate slope, and both rain and water from streams leading from high elevations to low fields to form terraced fields.

This is an elaborate and laborious process. The excavation work continued from year to year, from generation to generation, creating fields like a monumental art picture hanging on the slopes.

Appearing in poverty at the remote place; now, Mu Cang Chai terraced fields not only attract the attention of domestic people but also foreign tourists’ attention.

The image of terraced fields not only appears on film reports but also on display in art exhibitions and photos of domestic and foreign photographers. But those who have had the opportunity to see firsthand all confess that they will return here. Because the beauty of Mu Cang Chai is always new. That is the special attraction of Mu Cang Chai.
