Lao Cai (VNA) - Tourism website www.thrillist.com has named Y Ty mountainous commune in Bat Xat district of northern Lao Cai province as one of the best-kept secrets in Asian travel.

The website said: "Y Ty sits atop Vietnam's highest plateau, offering spectacular views of cloud-reaching mountains and yellow rice patty fields. If you want to experience rural Vietnam without straying far from the tourist centre of Sa Pa, this is your spot."

The website also suggests meeting locals at Y Ty's market where ethnic tribes sell traditional crafts and agricultural goods.

The other destinations on the list are Kep, Cambodia; Vieng Xai, Laos; Gili Meno – Gili Islands in Indonesia; and Sabah, Malaysian Borneo.-VNA
