Ban Ang Village + Phoenix Resort ▶️ Moc Chau

ban-ang-phoenix-resort-moc-chau — The tourist village of Ang (Bản Áng) and Phoenix Resort are located a short walk from the center of Moc Chau.

Ang Village (Bản Áng) in Moc Chau is today a popular tourist attraction.

- Recently, the city of Moc Chau has changed a bit and some places have been converted into tourist attractions or private resorts. One such place is the Ang Village (Bán Áng) and the adjacent artificial lake, pine forest and homestay accommodation in the area also known as Phoenix Mộc Châu Resort – Rừng Thông Bản Áng (Rừng Thông – means pine forest). Personally, however, I consider Moc Chau (especially the surroundings around the city) to be one of the very interesting places and I recommend to visit if you are in northwestern Vietnam.

- Phoenix Mộc Châu Resort in the village of Ang is a place for fun, relaxation, but also with the possibility of accommodation in nature, such as bungalows or homestay. Visiting nearby fruit farms, flower gardens, rides on an artificial lake (Hồ Bản Áng) and Vietnamese favorites photo selfie spots in various places. It is easily accessible from the city of Moc Chau and therefore mainly Vietnamese tourists come to enjoy the fun.

Ang Village (Bản Áng) is easily accessible from the city by bicycle or motorbike.

- Ang Village (Bản Áng) and Phoenix Mộc Châu Resort are easily accessible from Moc Chau (Son La province). It is located only 3.5 km from the town center, so theoretically you can come there on foot. Motorcycle parking is provided right next to or in the area, where there are smaller restaurants and refreshments in the area. The total area of Phoenix Moc Chau Resort is about 50 hectares and there are various tourist attractions + a lake surrounded by fruit farms.

Phoenix Mộc Châu Resort is also compared to the small town of Da Lat.

- Phoenix Mộc Châu Resort is compared to Da Lat in southern Vietnam. The forests of northwestern Vietnam with a poetic lake in the middle of ancient green pine forests, lush and cooler but also warm climate is in Moc Chau all year round with four seasons in one day. Phoenix Mộc Châu Resort has many recreational facilities such as hotel rooms, bungalows, restaurant, golf course, amusement parks. The whole Moc Chau plateau is an agricultural area with many fruit and vegetable farms, tea plantations and beautiful nature.

Book tickets to Moc Chau ➜

- The city of Moc Chau does not have a railway or an airport, so it is only accessible by bus, private minivan or motorbike. There are buses or minivans from Hanoi and the journey can take about 4.5 hours. A motorbike / scooter is the most suitable option for exploring the area around Moc Chau. Bicycles can also be rented in some places at Moc Chau, such as at the Phoenix Mộc Châu Resort, but some places are not very suitable for cycling.
