Each season, Ha Giang wears a different, stunningly beautiful coat. When spring comes, the mountain slopes bloom with the pink of peach blossoms and the white of plum blossoms, like a watercolor painting painted by the hand of nature. In summer, the old forests rustle in the wind, the golden terraced fields of ripe rice follow each other, reflecting the brilliant sunlight.

Then when winter comes, the rocky plateau puts on a quiet appearance, the buckwheat fields bloom like pink flames, dispelling the cold of the border region.
