You will participate in romantic highland markets, and admire magnificent natural scenery. Join Mytour to explore the most outstanding destinations in the Hà Giang 3-day 2-night tour below.

Zero Milestone of Hà Giang

Yên Minh Pine Forest seems to disconnect people from the hustle and bustle of urban life, away from the noisy car horns or the hectic pace of office life. The lush green grass carpet, interspersed with some wildflowers emitting a gentle fragrance, blends with the scent of pine, making one breathe deeply incessantly.

Dong Van Plateau

Located in the far north with an average elevation of 1,400-1,600 meters, Dong Van Plateau is home to many limestone mountains dating back 600 million years and is the common home of over 17 ethnic groups in the Vietnamese mountainous region such as H’Mong, Dao, Tay, Nung, La Chi, Pu Peo, ...

This place is not only famous for its majestic natural scenery but also has an ancient town in the valley, where you can experience some performances by local people, enjoy traditional dishes, and admire handicrafts displayed for sale.

King Cat's Palace

King Cat's Palace, also known as the Vương family palace, is located in Sa Phin valley, Lung Phin commune, Dong Van district, Ha Giang province. King Cat's Palace is situated at the foot of a valley surrounded by highland terrain. With this geographical feature, the entire structure is protected by mountain arches called 'turtle shell gates,' providing excellent defense during intense warfare.

The architecture inside the palace is extremely unique, blending the essence of three different cultures: H'Mong, French, and Chinese. Despite the fusion of these three cultures in architecture, many people have remarked that the Vương family palace is incredibly harmonious, gracefully flowing together as a unified whole without constraints, evoking admiration.

Lung Cu Flagpole

Located at the highest point of the 'Northernmost Nose,' the national historical relic of Lung Cu Flagpole - a sacred symbol of Vietnam's sovereignty, belongs to Lung Cu commune, Dong Van district, Ha Giang province. Lung Cu has many names, but according to the simple, rustic way of calling among the H'Mong people, Lung Cu is 'Lung Ngo' (because in the H'Mong language, cu means maize). Meanwhile, the Lô Lô ethnic group calls Lung Cu 'Long Cu' - the place of dragons.

Ma Pi Leng Pass

This pass lies on the 'happiness road' connecting Dong Van to Meo Vac, one of the most beautiful routes in Ha Giang, especially favored by adventure travelers for its stunning scenery. Ma Pi Leng is named after the H'Mong language, meaning 'horse's nose,' symbolizing the danger of this pass.

You need a strong spirit to experience the feeling of imbalance with one side being cliffs and the other side being deep abysses while admiring the winding Nho Que River. This will be a heart-pounding yet amazing experience that you should try at least once in your lifetime.

Nho Que River

The Nho Que River is one of the most beautiful rivers in Ha Giang, with its clear blue water that mesmerizes anyone who looks at it. Flowing peacefully all year round amidst the cliffs, the Nho Que River forms a vivid blue border between the Ma Pi Leng Pass and the Sam Pun road.

The Nho Que River is honored as one of Vietnam's most uniquely crafted valleys. In this 3-day, 2-night Ha Giang tour, you can also experience a boat trip along the Nho Que River, running along the mountain slopes. Sitting on the boat, against the current, admiring the meandering river around the mountain ranges, the enchanting scenery is beyond words.

Dong Van Market

Dong Van Market is located in a large area within the Dong Van Old Quarter. This is the largest trading and cultural exchange center in the Dong Van - Meo Vac karst plateau area. It can be said to be one of the typical markets of the ethnic minority communities in the Northern mountainous region, a must-visit destination in this 3-day, 2-night Ha Giang tour.

Especially on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days every month, in this market and old quarter area, lively cultural activities take place, characteristic of the land and people of the highlands such as bird throwing competitions, traditional weaving performances of the local ethnic groups.
