July is a time when millions of grateful hearts turn toward the heroic martyrs who laid down their lives for the independence and freedom of the Fatherland. In the sacred land at the northernmost tip of the country, the Vi Xuyen National Martyrs' Cemetery stands solemnly amidst the mountains and forests, like an epic carved in stone.

The following are indispensable destinations in Tuyen Quang for tourists:

BHG - Just over ten kilometres from the centre of Ha Giang City, Khuoi My Village in Phuong Do Commune is like a fairyland left in the middle of the mountains and forests. At an altitude of nearly 1000m, Khuoi My is covered in fog all year round, lightly covering the roofs, fences, and slopes, causing the entire village to appear as if it is drifting through layers of clouds.

BHG - As one of the ethnic groups that still preserves many elements of indigenous culture, the Tay people in Phuong Do Commune (Ha Giang City) continue to celebrate Doan Ngo Festival (the 5th day of the 5th lunar month) in a pure and undiluted manner.

BHG - Nestled deep within the forests of Tham Luong Village, Du Gia Commune, Yen Minh District, Du Gia Waterfall is fast becoming a hotspot for international tourists.

BHG - Nestled at the foot of the majestic Rong Mountain, about one kilometre from the Lung Cu National Flag Tower, Lo Lo Chai Village appears like a peaceful painting amid the stone plateau. This is the shared homeland of the Lo Lo and Mong ethnic minority communities, who have lived here for generations. The culture of the Lo Lo people is vividly expressed through traditional patterns such as fish and dragons, reflecting a life constantly shadowed by water scarcity. The wish for “dragons to spout water” is not only a simple wish but also a heartfelt message conveyed in every pattern and every house in this remote northernmost land of the country.

BHG - The People’s Committee of Cao Bo Commune, Vi Xuyen District, recently organised the ‘Heritage Tea Land’ Festival 2025, attracting the participation of leaders of Vi Xuyen District, local people and visitors.

BHG - On March 27-28, the traditional fish-catching festival of the Dao ethnic group took place in Nam Dam Village, Quan Ba ​Commune, Quan Ba District. Hundreds of locals and tourists immersed themselves in the vibrant atmosphere, participating in sacred rituals and unique folk games.

BHG - After a month of construction, the construction of Quan Ba District General Hospital is accelerating.

BHG - Visitors to Lung Cu Commune, Dong Van District during the New Year celebrations, will be attracted by the vibrant pink colour of cherry blossom trees against the cold weather.

BHG - The Meo Vac Market is held every Sunday morning and is considered the largest in the Dong Van Stone Plateau. Not counting the small traders who specialise in “running the market”, the end of the year is often when people from all over come to sell. Items regularly made by locals and brought to the market to sell, such as goats, piglets, vegetables, dried bamboo shoots, fresh ginger, rice, dong leaves or fragrant corn wine cans, are also sold more than usual.

BHG - Every year, as dawn breaks on the first day of the new year, the Tay people in Tha Village, Phuong Do Commune (Ha Giang City) will go to the village well to wash their faces and get water as a ritual to pray for blessings and peace.

BHG - The coming days of winter seem to gently touch people's hearts with the dry cold and misty mist.

BHG - On the morning of December 31, the Dong Tam resettlement area in Yen Lap Village, Yen Thanh Commune, Quang Binh District, was officially inaugurated, marking a joyful and celebratory atmosphere among the local residents.
