The rhythm of life of people in a place covered by mist and clouds all year round
(Baonghean.vn) - Dong Tren and Dong Duoi villages of Tay Son commune (Ky Son district) are home to the Mong Ha ethnic group, located 1,700 m above sea level.

| Dong Tren and Dong Duoi villages (collectively called Dong village) have about 60 households, located a few kilometers apart but all belong to the Ha family of the Mong people. Located at an altitude of 1,700 meters above sea level, the climate is cold all year round. This is the most prominent feature when setting foot in the village. Photo: Dao Tho |

| On winter days, when there is no sunlight, the entire village is covered in thick fog. Photo: Dao Tho |
 |
| However, when the sun rises and dispels the mist, the valleys of Dong village are filled with clouds that look like a fairyland. Photo: Dao Tho |
 |
| On the paths leading to the village or in the houses are ancient peach trees covering the land, creating a unique beauty. Photo: Dao Tho |

| Many Mong houses here still have roofs made of sa mu wood. After decades, these wooden roofs have become mossy but are still very sturdy. Photo: Dao Tho |
 |
| With the majority of households being poor and near-poor, and located nearly 30 km away from the commune center on mountainous roads, without electricity grid, the life of the people in Dong village is mainly self-sufficient. Agricultural products such as ginger, squash, taro... are often unsold or have their prices forced down by traders. Photo: Dao Tho |
 |
| In animal husbandry, taking advantage of available natural food sources, Dong villagers focus on developing buffalo, cows and black chickens... Photo: Dao Tho |
 |
| Life is still difficult, so after school, many students still have to carry their bags up the mountain to get firewood to help their families. Photo: Dao Tho |
 |
| In particular, in this Mong village, everyone has a common hobby of domesticating and raising wild chickens or hybrid wild chickens to fight in their free time. Photo: Dao Tho |
