1. Ma Pi Leng Pass (The King of Passes) Often called one of the "Four Great Passes" of Northern Vietnam, Ma Pi Leng is the crown jewel of Ha Giang. The road is carved directly into the side of a massive limestone mountain, offering sheer drops and panoramic views that will leave you speechless.

2. Nho Que River & Tu San Canyon Looking down from Ma Pi Leng, you will see a striking emerald green ribbon—the Nho Que River. HagiangTrips includes a relaxing boat ride on this river, taking you through the towering Tu San Canyon, the deepest gorge in Southeast Asia.

3. Tham Ma Pass (Doc Tham Ma) Famous for its photogenic "S-shaped" curves, this pass was historically used to test the strength of horses. Today, it is one of the most famous check-in spots for travelers and a great place to interact with local ethnic minority children carrying baskets of flowers.

4. Dong Van Old Quarter Nestled in a valley surrounded by rocky mountains, Dong Van Old Quarter is a cultural hub. With houses dating back over 100 years, it is the perfect place to grab a local coffee, stroll through the ancient streets, and experience the weekend market.

5. Lung Cu Flag Tower (The North Pole of Vietnam) Standing proudly at the northernmost point of Vietnam, close to the Chinese border, this massive flag tower offers incredible 360-degree views of rural villages and endless terraced fields.
