Ha Giang is Vietnam's northernmost province, on the border with China. The Dong Van Karst Plateau, a UNESCO Global Geopark, rises in grey limestone peaks cut by deep valleys, and roads wind over passes such as Ma Pi Leng above the Nho Que River.
H'mong, Lo Lo, Dao and other communities live in the villages along the way, and the best way to see it all is the Ha Giang Loop by motorbike, riding yourself or with an easy rider.
最佳旅行时间
October–November for buckwheat flowers and dry roads; March–May is mild and green. July–August is the rainy season, and winters are cold on the plateau.

当地人的建议
Foreign visitors pay a local procedure fee for the border area. Bring warm layers in any season: the plateau gets cold at night.
