Each season in Ha Giang rocky plateau boasts its own beauty and charm, and perhaps, spring is the most beautiful with rocks bloom.
In the cold weather during the Lunar New Year, the stone plateau look like a multicolored brocade painting made anyone come to their feet overwhelmed by the magnificent nature with the overlapping of limestone mountains and famous spectacular passes, and especially fields of beautiful blossoms.
In flowering season, the rocky plateau is embellished with fresh colours, such as purple buckwheat flowers, pink cherry blossom, white plum and pear blossoms. Buckwheat season lasts from late September to early December, whilst seasonal flowers of plum, peach and pear full bloom after Tet.
Let’s have a loser look at this land of ‘flowers bloom on rocks’ as charmingly depicted in photos by our freelance lensman Vuong Kha Thinh.

Pao's house, which was once the shooting scene of a famous Vietnamese movie, is now a must-see destination in Ha Giang Province. The house is home to typical upland architectures, ethnic minority people's simple way of life, and humble locals. |
