With diverse climates and high altitudes, the northern province of Hà Giang boasts many beautiful flower seasons all year round.

The mountainous province shows off its beauty during the season of light violet buckwheat flowers from October-November.

These days, Hà Giang is carpeted by endless fields of mustard blossoms which bring a warm atmosphere to clear away the cold air and grey sky in the region while welcoming a prosperous spring.

In such fairytale scenery, visitors might encounter ethnic people and children in colourful, traditional costumes carrying baskets of mustard flowers on their backs, creating a vivid picture of the mountainous region that lures many tourists.

According to the Hà Giang Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the province welcomed around 86,000 tourists, earning a turnover of some VNĐ200 billion (US$8.5 million) in the first nine days of the first lunar month of this year. VNS
