Dong Van Ancient Quarter — A Hidden Gem in Northern Vietnam

Our visit to Dong Van Ancient Quarter was like stepping back in time. Nestled among the limestone mountains of Hà Giang, this small town glows with rustic beauty — stone houses, wooden roofs, and warm yellow walls built over a century ago.

In the evening, the streets came alive with soft lantern light, gentle music, and the smell of local food. We sat at a small café in the center square, sipping hot tea and watching life unfold slowly — peaceful, cozy, and full of character. ☕✨

The locals were welcoming, always ready with a smile or a story about the town’s history. It was a perfect stop to rest and connect with the soul of the northern mountains before continuing the Hà Giang Loop adventure.

Getting there: Located in Dong Van District, about 150 km from Ha Giang City.
Pro tip: Visit in the late afternoon or evening for the best atmosphere — when the lanterns light up and the square feels truly magical.
