Thursday, October 1, 2020

YBO - Last weekend, authorities of Mu Cang Chai district and the Northern Vietnam Helicopter Company under the Vietnam Helicopter Corporation launched a helicopter tour of the Mu Cang Chai terraced fields – a special national landscape relic.

Using the "Mu Cang Chai Heli Tour” service, visitors will be lifted by Bell 505, a modern light helicopter produced in 2019 and imported from the US.

The aircraft, designed specifically for sightseeing, features wide glass windows and up to 12 seats, offering tourists a panorama of landscapes below from any seat.

Helicopter tours give travellers a fresh experience as they can admire breathtaking and much more beautiful landscapes, especially when it comes to the Mu Cang Chai terraced fields – a special national landscape relic recognised by the Prime Minister.

"Mu Cang Chai Heli Tour” will be a new, unique and attractive tourism service organised in annual festivals of Mu Cang Chai so as to help attract visitors to the district in the time to come.
