You will find various hilltribes with their different cultures and history. Most of them are AKHA with their very exotic and beautiful costumes. They are friendly, very generous people, and always happy to see and entertain foreigners when they visit. Another hilltribe - the LAHU -, the Thai's call them MUSUR which means hunters, is not far away and their village is situated in a beautiful small valley. Several LISU villages are close by and one is just some 500 M. away and you can see the people with their colorful dresses. Many Lisu people bring their fruits and vegetables to the local market in Phrao. And then we have the KAREN not far away with easy access by 4WD vehicle.
