A 45 minute walk brings you to Cat Cat Village, lying in the Muong Hoa Valley, about 3 km from Sapa town, home to the H’Mong hill tribe. You have a glimpse into the daily life of the H’Mong people, especially Black H’Mong, as well as participate in traditional activities such as weaving fabric. H’mong women sit in front of the loom and make colorful pieces of brocade, while children play around with pets or even livestock. Traditional costumes are made from wild silk with superb quality and embroidered with beautiful patterns of flowers and animals. The colors are also created by natural pigments such as tea leaves, turmeric, indigo…. In addition, many residents in Cat Cat are skillful at making gold and silver jewelry.
