In the last months of the year, visitors can easily observe the pink and purple hues of buckwheat fields when visiting the Ha Giang Karst Plateau in the northern mountainous province of Ha Giang, Vietnam.
The majestic landscape of mountains and forests here with pure beautiful buckwheat flowers captivates visitors.
In recent years, the road to Ha Giang has appealed to travelers for the steep passes that wind around hills and mountains now adorned with pink buckwheat flowers.
Traveling through Ha Giang these days, visitors will be treated to a picturesque landscape of fields of pink and white buckwheat flowers along the mountain pass from Quan Ba, Yen Minh to Pho Cao and Dong Van.
