Ha Giang is a paradise for photographers. Be prepared to capture awe-inspiring images of dramatic mountain landscapes, winding roads clinging to cliffsides (like Ma Pi Leng Pass and Tham Ma Pass), deep river canyons, colourful ethnic markets, traditional villages, and stunning rice terraces (especially in Hoang Su Phi).
The unique geology of the Dong Van Karst Plateau, combined with the vibrant local culture, provides endless opportunities for stunning Ha Giang photography. Remember to ask for permission before taking close-up photos of people.
