Agriculture meets tourism

Ta Nang’s charm is not limited to its landscapes. Agriculture here is thriving. Amidst the vast coffee plantations, red-fleshed dragon fruit gardens are growing more and more, demonstrating the bold innovation of farmers.

Especially, Mr. Phan Thanh Tuan's dragon fruit garden of more than 7,000 pillars not only secures steady income but also attracts visitors eager to explore, take photos, and learn about cultivation. Across Ta Nang, more than 8,700 hectares of farmland are under cultivation, with 500 hectares applying high-tech methods. Key products include coffee, rice, macadamia, vegetables, and flowers, alongside standout specialties like the 3-star OCOP product “coffee-flavored dried beef.”

Endless rice paddies, mulberry fields, and organic farms now double as agri-tourism destinations, where visitors can experience hands-on harvesting and taste fresh local produce.

Indigenous cultural identity

Visitors can immerse themselves in village life: watching gong performances, enjoying fine wine, or participating in activities with the locals. the combination of trekking - agriculture - culture gives Ta Nang a distinctive edge compared to other destinations.
