If Ha Giang is famous for its blooming buckwheat fields in October, tourists will be captivated by the stunning natural scenery of the “waterfall season”, and the amazing terraced fields meandering on the hills and mountains. The roads of Ha Giang offer the ultimate motorcycle adventure. The journey to Dong Van is incomparably beautiful, however, Ma Pi Leng — where the road curves around the Nho Que River — is the highlight of Ha Giang’s crown.

Ha Giang captures the hearts of many tourists with its jagged hills and clouds hovering atop the mountains like a breathtaking painting. The winding and majestic Ma Pi Leng Pass will leave you feeling small in the face of nature’s grandeur.

Here, they can admire the luxurious architecture of the 20th century in European style, adding a unique touch of historical beauty that is sure to charm any traveler.
