Bá Thước

Bá Thước is a rural district in Thanh Hóa province in northern Vietnam with a mix of mountainous and flat terrain where residents live scattered across villages and farmland. The landscape shows rice paddies, small settlements, and areas of different elevations that give the region its varied character.

The district developed over time as an administrative center in a rural region and kept its role as a local hub through various periods of Vietnamese history. Its structure today reflects the continuity of this administrative function.

Multiple ethnic groups live here and maintain traditional ways of farming and celebrating local festivals throughout the year.

The main town of Cành Nàng serves as the main point for local services and markets where you can get information from residents about the area. The best time to visit is during dry months when paths and roads are easier to navigate.

Farmers here grow rice at higher elevations, which is an unusual practice in many rice-growing regions. This hillside farming method has worked for generations and sets this area apart from lower-elevation rice areas.
