"Pác Bó" in Tày language means “the beginning of the source”.[which?][1]

Near this village is a cave, Hang Cốc Bó (today often called Hang Pác Bó) in which Hồ Chí Minh lived for seven weeks, during February and March 1941, after returning from 30 years of exile.[2] Consequently, it is now a tourist site.[3]
