The Tong Cot market fair is one of the two largest fairs to be held in the morning, once every five days, in Ha Quang mountain district, northern Cao Bang province.
Tay, Nung and Mong ethnic people regularly go there to barter their maize, soya beans and animals like buffalos, cows, horses and pigs for rice, clothes and other commodities from local traders.
