Hoang Ngoc Kim homestay is a traditional house of the Nung An people located in a village of incense makers. It was refurbished in December 2016 with essential equipment such as a toilet with septic tank, bathroom with shower and hot water. From the house you have a beautiful view over rice paddies and corn fields. There are 3 toilets and 3 bathrooms with hot water. The ground floor serves as a living room as well as a spacious, airy dining room. The house is made of 100% wood with yin and yang roof tiles making it a very beautiful and spectacular house. The house started opening to guests in March 2017.
