Ta Xua Peak is a phrase that you have heard a lot lately every weekend, especially at the beginning of the year. Ta Xua, which used to be famous only for ancient Shan Tuyet tea and medlar fruit, has become closer and more familiar to tourists. In the past, when the traffic was not convenient, Ta Xua cloud was a big obstacle for the villagers because moving in each layer of dense clouds was quite difficult, but at the present time, clouds are a big problem. One of the special points is being able to turn Ta Xua tourism into one of the highlights of Son La when many visitors come to Ta Xua Peak just to catch the moments of clouds.

2.1. Dinosaur spine – Ta Xua Peak
The spine of the dinosaur has become a place that is known by many tourists on the Ta Xua Loop journey.
The dinosaur spine is a bit special, the mountain ridge is facing straight ahead as well as the boundary of the two communes of Ta Xua and Hang Dong. When you come to Ta Xua, when you wake up in the morning, the sun has just dawned and at the same time, floating clouds appear in front of your eyes, romantically hugging the dinosaur’s spine with the dawn of the morning. Early morning creates a fanciful picture of nature.
The road to the back of the dinosaur is quite dangerous, the height from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley is about 200-300 m, so most tourists have chosen to walk safely, on friendly roads they can easily see the clouds as well as record pictures easily.
 
2.2. Turtle head rock
In addition to the dinosaur spine, the cliff of the turtle’s head is also a place that attracts a lot of tourists, if you have been to Ta Xua once, you are not too familiar with this cliff, the reason it is called the cliff.

And this is also a cliff that is very popular with tourists on the Ta Xua Loop journey because it has brought tourists extremely spectacular photos.
 
2.3. Ta Xua lonely tree
Ta Xua Peak not only attracts tourists by the scenery filled with sunshine and wind along with durable cotton clouds, but also appears more lonely trees standing alone on the high mountain, standing in the middle of the sky. This barren beauty here promises to be a very beautiful setting for you to check in and take super beautiful photos between the human context and the vast sky and earth.
The image of a lonely tree standing in the middle of the Northwest mountains makes many tourists excited from here, you can zoom out to see the immense mountain scenery. Visitors do not need to create it easily because there is a beautiful background with the scenery of nature.
 
2.4. Ta Xua national primeval forest
Up to different heights, the landscape also changes in the primeval forest, the most prominent is the mossy vegetation layer of yellow color that clings to create an extremely mysterious space. Especially if you come here and explore in the right season you can easily catch the beautiful red azalea flowers dotted. 
Mossy forest in Ta Xua primeval forest is a type of plant genus typical of parasites that cling to wood and rocks. In Vietnam, there are only a few areas with cool temperate climates that have this plant and Ta Xua Son La was fortunate to be on that list.
