DESCRIBE

Hoang Su Phi is a district of Ha Giang province and is one of the most attractive destinations in the Northwest for trekkers and those who love taking photos of terraced fields. Different from the impressive and somewhat harsh scenery of the rocky plateaus in Dong Van and Meo Vac, Hoang Su Phi has an extremely poetic and surreal beauty of terraced fields stretching endlessly in the landscape of mountains, forests, and green streams.

» To experience Hoang Su Phi more fully, combine it with a paragliding tour to see the terraced fields
