Vertiginous Landscapes and Authentic Local Life
Meo Vac is defined by the sheer power of its karst scenery: abrupt limestone peaks, winding mountain roads, and narrow valleys carved into the rock. The legendary Ma Pi Leng Pass, suspended above the canyon of the Nho Que River, links Meo Vac to Dong Van and offers one of the most breathtaking panoramas in northern Vietnam.
But Meo Vac is above all a land of ethnic diversity. H’mong, Lô Lô, and other minority communities continue to uphold their traditions in remote villages. The lively and colorful Meo Vac market is a vibrant expression of local life, where brocade textiles, livestock, and regional specialties come together.
Between hiking trails, exploration of isolated hamlets, and genuine encounters, Meo Vac embodies a true off-the-beaten-path journey.
