Phu Tho Travel Guide via Photos

Phu Tho is little known to the foreign visitors to Vietnam, while it is popular among the Vietnamese. The province was where the founder kings of Vietnam (Hung Kings, Hung Vuong, Vua Hung) started the first Viet-identity kingdom and there is still the Hung Kings Temple near the provincial capital - Viet Tri City. 

Phu Tho doesn't have many tourist attractions and not visited frequently by the foreign travellers to Vietnam. Still, the province is home to the last stretch of the Hoang Lien Mountain which starts from Sapa (Lao Cai Province), and which offers some opportunities for trekking adventures to those who would like to stray from the well-trodden tourist track.

Phu Tho is the sacred land to every Vietnamese. Visiting the Hung Kings Temple will get you more understanding of the Vietnamese culture. A trip to the temple from Hanoi takes a day and requires some good physical efforts, as the temples are located on different mountains.
