At an altitude of 1200 meters, the Ma Pi Leng Pass clings to the side of the undulating mountains, offering an exceptional view of the valleys and mountains which are decorated with terraced hemp fields. We will continue driving the zigzagging road down into Meo Vac Valley for lunch. In the afternoon, we will go back to Ha Giang and spend the night there.
