The story goes that, long ago, this was a Dao village owned by a man named “Ly Linh Ho”. Gradually, the Dao people moved to other places, and the Mong people came to settle down, still keeping their name and transliterating it into Y Linh Ho as a tribute to the ancients. Located quite far from the main road, the road to the village is steep and winding, so unlike other villages and hamlets in Sa Pa, this place is not noisy with traffic, but peaceful and quiet.
