Tourists explore the culture of the Muong ethnic people during their visit to Ke village, Hien Luong commune, Da Bac district.
Since getting married, Dinh Quy Huu, owner of the Huu Thao homestay in Ke village, has engaged in community tourism. Their homestay, located by the Hien Luong bay and Ke stream, offers visitors a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. The homestay features a large shared room and three private rooms, all designed in the traditional Muong ethnic’s architecture. The minimalist yet clean decor ensures comfort while offering a truly local experience.
After seven years of developing the tourism model in the village, three families have joined, improving their facilities and service quality. These homestays offer meals, accommodations, and various experiences such as kayaking, swimming, campfires, and cultural performances. Local cultural and tourism events held by the district have contributed to promoting and growing the village’s community tourism.
Nguyen Huong Giang, a tourist from Hanoi, shared her satisfaction with the experience, praising the stunning lake view, comfortable accommodations, and delicious food, particularly the grilled fish. The water sports activities provided quality family time, making the trip memorable.
Ke village, home to 115 Muong ethnic households, has seen improvements in livelihoods since the development of the tourism model. The local community actively preserves and promotes its cultural heritage, with music groups and service providers contributing to local employment and income. The tourism activities also help introduce and promote local specialties, especially fish from the reservoir.
