At the foot of Pu Xai Lai Leng peak, in Nao Ngoi commune, Ky Son district, Nghe An province, hundreds of Samu roofs with the quiet color of time of the Mong people still exist from generation to generation. The hundreds of years old Samu roofs are the inspiration for author HO XUAN THANH to create a photo series "Unique ancient houses with Samu roofs at the foot of Puxailaileng mountain", submitted to the Photo and Video contest Happy Vietnam - Happy Vietnam .

At the foot of Puxailaileng Mountain in the Truong Son mountain range, 2720m high, located on the Vietnam-Laos border, is the home of the Mong ethnic group in Nao Ngoi commune, Ky Son district, Nghe An province. In addition to the majestic beauty of nature, visitors here are also attracted by the time-worn Samu-roofed wooden houses of the Mong people. In the past, the Mong people, like many other ethnic groups, mainly roofed their houses with thatch and palm leaves. However, the lifespan of these materials was very short. Later, they learned that the Samu tree wood, which is everywhere in the village, is a very good material for roofing, so they used this type of wood instead.
