A damp morning in Lao Cai province unfolds as the Dcar limousine eases into Sapa’s highland air; mist clings to carved rice terraces and women in embroidered H’Mong jackets move like color through the fields. On day one the route drops into Muong Hoa Valley, threading forested switchbacks to Cat Cat village where wooden stilt houses and looms occupy the rhythm of daily life.
