According to the head of the village, Vang A Chinh, Sin Suoi Ho used to be home to a large number of drug addicts. However, since 2005, the number of addicts has decreased gradually. To date, there are no drug addicts in the village thanks to the development of community-based tourism. From being a poor village, for 15 years, nowadays, the incomes of households have increased from tourism and selling local products such as orchids, cardamom, brocade, and products made of rattan and bamboo.
From 2015 to now, the community tourist site in Sin Suoi Ho Village welcomes over 20,000 domestic and international tourists to visit each year. This is an ideal place to experience during your summer trip and to explore the natural beauty that this destination offers.

In the H’Mong language, Sin Suoi Ho means “River with gold”. Coming here, you will feel delighted to see the crystal clear water streams flowing through this land and visit the Heart waterfall. All the streams and waterfalls in the middle of the mountains and forests here create a pure and peaceful scene that captivates the hearts of many travelers.
The most special are traditional festivals with typical features such as the Gau Tao festival, the most important festival of the Mong, held in early spring to express their gratitude to Heaven and Earth and pray for good luck and happiness in the new year and Le Mung Lua Moi (new rice ceremony). Women in the village still wear and weave traditional clothes made from linen. Along with that, traditional professions such as brocade embroidery, winemaking, knitting, and forging bring stable incomes.
