We visited this village outside of Sapa. It looked like it was doing well, a lot of the houses looked new and well built. It seems that this is a stopping point for visitors from Sapa to go and see an authentic village and buy some nice needlework. From the moment we got there until we left we were circled by an entourage of chatting Red Zyao women eager to sell there goods. We promised we'd buy something but not until the end of the tour, a compromise that pleased everyone.
