Mơ Nâm village on Highway 24
Ride a few kilometres up Highway 24 to Kon Pring, a Mơ Nâm community village where the steep roof of the nhà rông rises over the fields and wooden houses sit under the pine. Come for the gongs, xoang dancing, weaving, and rice wine, and give it at least an hour. Skip it on a day Pa Sy and Dak Ke already fill.

Kon Pring is one of four community tourism villages in Kon Plông, home to Mơ Nâm families. You see it first across the fields: low houses, pine on the hills behind, and the tall roof of the nhà rông, the communal house, rising over the fields.

Walk among the stilt houses, then ask about the gongs and xoang dancing. Performances are part of a visit but keep no fixed weekly schedule, so ask that morning or when you arrive. Weaving and rice wine are the other things families show you. Stay longer than the hour if the gongs are playing.
Stay the night if you want the village after dark. Homestays are offered, with a family meal. Otherwise ride back to town for grilled chicken and lam rice. The gate opens at 05:00, so an early start before Pa Sy also works.
