Thai Hai Village was established nearly 10 years ago by the village head – Nguyen Thi Thanh Hai. The original purpose of the establishment was to preserve the traditional culture of the Tay people, not for tourism purposes. This place has only started tourist activities a few years ago, but it has gradually become a popular tourist destination in Thai Nguyen.

More than 30 stilt houses were disassembled and transported from the Dinh Hoa area, Thai Nguyen. After the transportation process, these houses were restored to their original form for conservation.

Each house has its own theme and function, there is a herbal medicine house, a wine house, a green tea house, and a Then theater.
