In the article, writer Tim Pile commented that "villages perched precariously on mountain slopes across Asia always have in common breathtaking natural scenery, mesmerizing views and maintaining ancient farming techniques".
"Rice is grown on steep terraces, houses are designed to withstand harsh weather. Indigenous traditions and cultures are preserved and thrive, separate from the hustle and bustle of city life," Pile describes.
Whether accessed by mountain passes, forest trails or cable cars, the villages on the list are ideal destinations for visitors to "heal", slow down, breathe deeply and feel the reality amid unique heritage and landscapes.
Located about 12km from Sa Pa ward ( Lao Cai province), Ta Van is described as a "picturesque village" nestled in a lush green valley. This is home to the Giay and H'Mong people.
Traditional stilt houses are scattered among terraced fields, surrounded by streams, waterfalls and rustling bamboo forests.
Unlike the hustle and bustle of Cat Cat village, Ta Van still maintains a slow pace of life. Visitors can rent a motorbike to explore the village, or simply follow the trail to watch the sunrise dyeing the entire valley yellow.
Besides Ta Van, some other prominent destinations on the list include Mae Kampong (Thailand), Hundar (India), Ella (Sri Lanka), Huangling (China) and Shirakawa (Japan).
