The Stone Plateau in Hà Giang
When talking about Hà Giang tours, the global geopark cannot be left out – Dong Van Karst Plateau. Stretching across 4 districts: Dong Van, Meo Vac, Yen Minh, and Quan Ba, this karst plateau was recognized by UNESCO in 2010 as the first global geopark in Vietnam and the second in Southeast Asia.
The park covers a natural area of 2,356 km2, with 70% of limestone exposed on the surface. It's a spectacular blend of towering peaks and deep valleys, featuring the highest peak – Ma Pi Leng (1,971m) and the deepest ravine – Tu San, also the deepest ravine in Southeast Asia, with a depth of over 700m.
The rocky plateau preserves the imprints of 7 geological transformations in the Earth's history. These changes are evident in paleontological sites, topography, landforms, karst formations, caves, and significant fractures. Beyond the diversity of ancient organisms, Đồng Văn Stone Plateau houses two rich nature reserves with various species, including coniferous trees, southern serows, and numerous indigenous birds.
Home to 17 ethnic communities and over 250,000 people, the stone plateau is a melting pot of diverse cultural activities. Each ethnic group contributes unique cultural traits, turning the plateau into a region with a myriad of colors, a mosaic of ethnic heritage.
North Sum Slope
Stretching from Minh Tan commune in Vị Xuyên district to Quyết Tiến commune in Quản Bạ district, the treacherous North Sum Slope winds around mountain passes, challenging even the most steadfast drivers. The Nine Turns Slope, a narrow and winding section often checked-in by adventure seekers in Hà Giang, is part of the North Sum Slope. In the Hà Giang tour 2N3Đ, travelers check-in at the slope before moving on to other attractions.
Quản Bạ Heaven's Gate
After conquering the North Sum Slope, you will encounter Quản Bạ Heaven's Gate in Quản Bạ district. Situated at an altitude of 1500m above sea level, the weather at the Heaven's Gate is cooler than other places. It earned its name as the 'Heaven's Gate' because the French once built an imposing gate along the solitary road to the stone plateau, transforming it into the domain of the Hmong people.
The Hà Giang Journey takes travelers to the heavenly gate of Quan Ba to admire the twin mountains of Fairy Cô Tiên (Quan Ba twin mountains) beneath the Tam Son valley. Legend has it that a fairy, captivated by the melodious mouth harp played by a H'Mong boy, descended to the mortal world to become his wife. When the Jade Emperor discovered this and took her back to the sky, out of love for her hardworking husband and child, the fairy left behind two blooming milk flowers to nurture her child to maturity. These milk flowers have now transformed into two lush twin mountains resembling a mother's breasts.
Cáo Street
Cáo Street is a highland commune in Đồng Văn district. Despite not being extensively explored for tourism, Cáo Street still maintains its peaceful and primitive charm. The triangular buckwheat fields and the traditional wall houses of the H'Mong people will evoke a sense of returning to the ancient times of humanity.
Vương Family Mansion
The Vương Family Mansion is a renowned and unique destination that everyone wants to visit in Hà Giang tour. Located in Lũng Phìn commune, Đồng Văn district, it was built by King Cat Vương Chính Đức over 8 years. The mansion is closely associated with the lives of King Vương Chính Đức and his son Vương Chí Sình. Vương Chí Sình, a revolutionary king, became a representative of the National Assembly of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam in the first and second terms.
The Vương Family Mansion is a remarkable and peculiar structure, a fascinating blend of architecture and a convergence of natural cultural elements. It does not exude grandiosity but rather simplicity, resembling the architecture of the H'Mong people. It is also one of the very few mansions in Vietnam that serves multiple functions: family activities, work, and military fortress.
The Sentinel Column
Perched atop Dragon Mountain, the Sentinel Column marks the northern sovereignty of Vietnam. Surrounding the mountain are villages of the Lô Lô, Mông, and Giáy ethnic groups, hidden amidst the tranquil landscape of earthen-walled houses with yin-yang tiled roofs. The ever-burning hearths from the local households create a warm and inviting atmosphere for distant travelers in the remote borderlands.
The Sentinel Column is constructed in an octagonal shape, standing at a height of 33.15 meters. Adorning the column are eight bronze Dong Son drum faces, and at its base, eight bas-reliefs depicting various historical periods. The red flag with a yellow star, measuring 54 square meters, symbolizes the 54 ethnic groups of Vietnam – a sacred emblem evoking myriad emotions for travelers on the Hà Giang tour.
Mã Pì Lèng Pass
Mã Pì Lèng Pass (also known as Mã Pí Lèng) is one of the four great mountain passes in Northern Vietnam, alongside Khau Phạ Pass, Pha Đin Pass, and Ô Quy Hồ Pass. In the Hà Giang 2N3D tour, adventurers experience the thrill of navigating the treacherous 20-kilometer pass. The pass is situated on the Happiness Road, connecting Đồng Văn and Mèo Vạc districts with the city of Hà Giang.
Mã Pí Lèng translates to 'living horse's nose,' reflecting the perilous terrain resembling a horse's nose. In 1959, thousands of youth volunteers overcame numerous challenges, even sacrificing their lives, to complete the road, facilitating easier transportation.
Below the mountain pass lies the Nho Que River, originating from Yunnan, China. The river, seen from above, resembles a tiny thread weaving through the towering mountain ranges. The water of the river has a mesmerizing jade-like color, prompting everyone to marvel at the beauty crafted by nature.
