The Bac Ha Sunday market is a 'must-see' if one is visiting the Sapa area of northwestern Vietnam, not only for the fascinating live animal section of the market, but also the large number of local Flower Hmongs (H'mongs) that visit the market on that day. They are perhaps the most colorful of the various hill tribes that inhabit northwestern Vietnam. Combining them with perhaps the most interesting market I've encountered yet during my travels around Southeast Asia to date made for a very memorable experience with a wealth of incredible photo opportunities to boot. Video clips that I took at the market can be seen on my Youtube 'EL2995' page, with Part I covering the live animal section and Part II covering the rest of the market. Enjoy!
