Hidden in the mountains about 140 kilometers from Ha Giang Town, the capital of Ha Giang Province, or 75km from Bac Ha District in Lao Cai Province, Xin Man is considered one of the most beautiful place in the northernmost area of Vietnam. Far from the noisy town and a little bit difficult to reach because of the bumpy and muddy road, the district is not well-known to mass tourism, but it is worth the effort to get there. The Sunday market in Xin Man is filled with hill-tribe traders from surrounding villages. The name of each ethnic minority group is derived from the appearance of their traditional costumes and this area is mainly populated by Mong Hoa people, including Mong Hoa (Flower H'mong), Mong Den (Black H'mong), Nung, Tay and Dao.
