[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]B<\/span>ong Lai Valley is a fantastic rural valley interspersed with farms and small villages. There are now a number of attractions in the Valley making it a great relaxing day or half day out in the countryside. Places to visit include the Pub With Cold beer, Duckstop, Moi Moi Restaurant, Pepperhouse homestay, Bong Lai Swing Nature Farm, Bong Lai Rattan House to name few.
\nThe Bong Lai Valley is best seen on a bicycle or motorbike or it is a 12km round trip walking. Easy-rider style on the back of a bike with a licensed driver for a stress free and safe way to travel is also a great option..
\nThere are no entrance fees to any places in Bong Lai Valley. It is best seen during the day so that you can return before it gets dark.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”2459″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1791″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

Pub with Cold Beer<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]This is the original watering spot in the valley for thirsty tourists. They opened in unison with the Farmstay in 2010 and were named for the fact that at the time, cold beer was pretty much nonexistent between the original DMZ Bar in Pham Ngu Lao St Hue and Bars of the old 1\/4 in Ha Noi. Yes, a long ride between drinks it was. Well cold ones, anyway.
\nAs advertised, cold beer, and most of what you eat there is grown in the village. A very \u201cFarm to Table Affair.\u201d
\nChicken is the specialty of this lively establishment, with chicken is so fresh that when you arrive it will still be scratching around the veggie patch! While you wait for your lunch to cook you can rent a tube off them and float down the river. Just lie in a hammock with a cold beer or you can get as involved as you like with the preparation of your chicken, even catching and slaughtering the poultry yourself. The \u201cPub with Cold Beer\u201d has been praised by foodie writers in publications including the \u201cHuffington Post\u201d, London\u2019s \u201cThe Guardian\u201d Newspaper and the \u201cNew York Times\u201d travel sections.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”2496″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”2458″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

Bong Lai Swing Nature Farm<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]If you want to get further off the beaten track, head a few more adventurous kilometres down the dirt track of Bong Lai valley from the \u201cPub with Cold Beer\u201d to the Bong Lai Swing Nature Farm. In the same spirit of the pub with cold beer, they serve cold beer and delicious freshly cooked pork and other options, but in a more rural setting with views over the river. This is a great spot to swim or hang out in the huge Vietnamese house that Mr Cuong and his family have built. Past this location lies endless wilderness. It\u2019s the end of the road.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”2556″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”2560″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]

Moi Moi Restaurant<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]This is a friendly spot that also offers some fantastic food options in a rural setting in the Bong Lai Valley, located in a rubber plantation, on a small farm that grows pepper, watermelons, cassava, corn and other crops.
\nAsk for the \u201cPork cook in bamboo\u201d or the vegetarian Peanut dumplings \u201cBan Loc\u201d.

Take a leap and go for a fun afternoon on his farm to experience what he calls \u201chis childhood lifestyle\u201d. This tour consists on tending his ducks and his water buffalo. Which was part of a daily routine for children supporting their family in the area.
\nProudly Tripadvisors number 1 of \u201cthings to do in the area,\u201d .Yes, even above the world\u2019s biggest cave.
