Taking advantage of the precious warm mineral water, An Lac has invested in building swimming pools, mineral hot tubs, saunas, indoor massage services and outdoor infinity pools to meet the diverse needs of visitors.

For dinners, visitors are treated to traditional dishes like com lam (sticky rice steamed in bamboo tubes), deep-fried stream fish and crispy pork, along with garden vegetables.

During weekends and holidays, the site offers art performances featuring cultural identities of the Muong ethnic group, including fan dancing and bamboo pole dancing. There would be campfires and lantern release at night.

To Thi Ngoc Hoa, a tourist from Hanoi’s Hoang Mai district, said this is the fourth time she and her family, friends and colleagues have visited An Lac.

Hoa said she was lured by the beautiful scenery, fresh air and services there, adding that she will surely come back An Lac.
