Amidst the harsh stone plateau of Tuyen Quang province, Lung Tam weaving village persistently preserves the traditional linen weaving craft of the Mong people. From simple linen threads, through the skillful hands of Mong women, they create fabrics that not only have practical value but also contain the cultural identity, memories, and rhythm of life of a land in the far north of the country.
