THE MAP I started my journey from Bac Ninh to the North-West of Vietnam, passed many highways, many roads and visited all the places spotted on the map.

THE NORTH-WEST This was the second time I’ve visited to the North. However, it was the first time which I took a visit around the North-West by motobike.

The trips gave me a precious chances to immerse myself into the nature with forest, mountains, river, and peace, and escape from the hustle and bustle of the crowed city. Especially, the moment I remember mostly when I drove motobike on the Dinosaur Spine in Ta Xua. The scenery was magnific but the route was extremely dangerous.

In my point of view, the landscapes are extraordinary in the North-West. If you are looking for a truly unique travel experience in Vietnam, a journey to hunt clouds in Ta Xua should definitely be in your plan. This trip gave me some special experience when riding motobike into clouds and fog along the road. I was standing at the peak and looking around to see the ocean of cloud beneath my feet. I readly enjoyed spending a night in a stilt traditional house and local dinner with full of Thai’s specialties in Mai Chau. As a result, I got up late in the next day, I still wanted to spend more time for taking a rest before going back to Ha Noi. After the trip, I gained much more knowledge about special part of my country. I’ve ambition to go to see my country and experience that feelings.

Through toughness of the trip, my vision will change.
