Two weeks of traveling with TVN S.A for a food show production

Filming in Vietnam has experienced two interesting weeks to explore many beautiful filming places throughout the country with a wonderful filming team and renowned Master Chef and Master Chef Junior, Michel Moran from Poland. The starting point was the unique Bac Ha market in the mountainous area of Northwest Vietnam. We came there on a foggy Sunday morning but very soon we felt energetic with the colorful and unique environment at the market. Many local ethnic minority people from nearby hills and mountains have come here to trade homemade products like vegetables, food, different kinds of animals like buffaloes, corks, cats, dogs, fish, and especially brocades woven by Dzao or H'Mong people. All of this makes Bac Ha market the largest, most interesting, and colorful one in Northwest Vietnam.

After shooting at Bac Ha market, we traveled to Sapa which has been one of the attractive filming locations in Northwest Vietnam. We came there in November, the time all rice was cut and fog covered all over the valley and rice terraces. But we still felt the hidden beauty.
