Y Ty is located at an altitude of over 2,000m, leaning on the Nhìu Co San mountain range, 2,660m high. The sun there probably rarely shines for 12 hour. The way to Y Ty is the winding trails, then resting in the forest leaves, the houses looming in the clouds. Perhaps that is why when they come to Y Ty, many people feel like they are entering a different world, completely separated from the noisy and busy life.
