Early light breaks across limestone ridges and the first rice stems hum with dew as a motorbike pushes off from the Pu Luong center. The road narrows into a ribbon of packed earth, jungle closing in like a living wall; every turn offers a new patchwork of terraces, stepping down the valley like carved green stairs. Water wheels creak at streams, children wave from stilt houses, and the river dares you to pause.
