From deep valleys to high mountain slopes, along curved paths and next to thatched houses, everywhere in Ha Giang can tourists catch the sight of appealing flowers. Not only that, the time after Tet holiday, many traditional festivals of the local are held, attracting both domestic and international tourists.

Coming to Ha Giang in autumn, tourists will get a good chance to see Ha Giang with its new clothes. Terrace fields in September and October turn into yellow, which look like a giant carpet covering hills and valleys of Ha Giang. The weather at this time is not so hot as in summer, and the rain begins to decrease, so it is an ideal time for an outdoor journey.

In winter, Ha Giang is relatively cold, and the temperature decreases significantly on high mountains. At the end of December, Ha Giang is covered by thick fog and drizzling rain. However, Ha Giang at this time is a paradise of buckwheat flowers, the symbol flower of this mountainous landscape. A festival of this flower is also held in winter to introduce buckwheat flowers to tourists.
