Located at 1,400 meters above sea level, on the heights surrounding Mount Phu Fa - the "mountain of heaven" - the town of Phongsali seems timeless. If this city does not have much charm for tourists, many travelers find it nevertheless endearing. Because the contacts with the natives are undoubtedly more authentic there. The 20 000 inhabitants of Phongsali belong to different ethnic minorities. The Phu Noi (Tibeto-Burman ethnic group) are the most numerous with the Akha, the Lou or the Chinese originating from Yunnan. Until the 19th century, this city of the Tai-Lu kingdom was under Chinese domination, before the arrival of the French.
