The UNESCO cultural heritage village covers 20 hectares of green forest area, with more than 30 traditional houses-on stilts, according to the organization.
The Tay community of 4 generations is preserving the traditional culture, including its language, customs, rituals, ceremonies, and clothes as tourism attractions.
The village promotes local culture’s potential to form unique and authentic tourism products.
It hosts traditional spiritual festivals, utilizing the village’s ethnic people who have specific cultural knowledge and language skills to act as tour guides.
Moreover, the locals actively preserve and maintain the traditional stilts houses which are shared with visitors. The homes of the villagers offer homestays for tourists to showcase Tay cuisines, breeding, agriculture activities, and crafts, UNWTO said.
