Throwing rocks touching the cliff on Tham Ma Pass
In Ha Giang, there is a high rock cliff right situated on Tham Ma Pass, visitors usually challenge together to throw stones so far that can touch the cliff. On viewing, it seems very close, but how many time you throw stones, it only fly halfway and fall into deep abyss. If you have occasion to go through, let try throwing stones to know you can or not.

Enjoying corn wine and gourmet cuisine in Ha Giang
Ha Giang corn wine is a heavy alcohol type but fragrant. Eating a bowl of Au Tau rice soup or “thắng cố” dish and drink a cup of warm corn liquor in the chilly days of late autumn in the rocky plateau. That is so great.

Flying on Ma Pi Leng 
Ma Pi Leng is named as the king of the North’s passes. Because of not only hard to go, but also spectacular landscape and the story of death-braving youth who fight for opening road on this dangerous pass. Standing on Ma Pi Leng, outstretching your arms in wind, you will feel like you're floating on the sky. Ma Pi Leng always attracts young people enthralled by the beauty of the earth and sky. It is a mixture of river landscape with majestic mountains scenery.
