Dong Cao: The attracted green plateau in Bac Giang

With diverse terrain, including many wide grasslands, high mountains with large undulating rocks,... Dong Cao plateau (Bac Giang) has become an ideal place to attract those who love to travel to camp, hunt clouds, and experience watching the starry night sky.

Distance from the city centre, about 150km from Hanoi, the Dong Cao plateau (in Thach Son commune, Son Dong district, Bac Giang province), with its back against the mountain and the front facing the basin-shaped valleys, is an ideal camping location attracting many travellers, to experience thanks to its green natural landscape, diverse terrain and pleasant, fresh atmosphere.

Dong Cao has many large grasslands stretching one after another, interspersed with large undulating rocks and immense green forests in the distance. This place is about 1000m above sea level, so the climate is cool all year round.

In particular, around this plateau, the population is still sparse, and many tourism services have not been exploited, so the idyllic and wild beauty is still maintained.

 
Each season, the Dong Cao plateau has its beauty. However, from September to December every year is considered the most ideal time for tourists to explore this place. At this time, the weather is cool, not too cold, and there is little rain, making it convenient for believers to travel to experience cloud hunting, camping overnight and stargazing,...

Besides, if you come to Dong Cao in the spring, when travelling through the roads through the villages of the Dao, Cao Lan, Kinh people,... visitors will also have the opportunity to admire the scenery on both sides of the road filled with all kinds of flowers. Or watch the lychee hills blooming and the grapefruit and orange gardens blooming with fragrant flowers.

In Dong Cao, in addition to the flat green lawns chosen as camping places, large stone slabs with many strange shapes also impress visitors. These rocks are scattered throughout the plateau, becoming a check-in corner or a place for tourists to lean back and watch the romantic sunset,...

Suppose you are lucky enough to come to Dong Cao on days with ideal weather conditions. In that case, you can also experience cloud hunting, watch the sea of floating clouds,... or freely fly kites and play teambuilding games.

Because there are no food and accommodation services in the plateau, tourists who want to stay overnight have to camp, set up tents, organize BBQ parties, etc. When night falls, they sit together in the sunlight, happily chatting and waiting to "hunt" for the Milky Way or admire the beautiful starry night sky.

 

Visitors can travel from Hanoi to the City to reach the Dong Cao plateau. Bac Giang, follow Highway 31 through An Chau town, Van Son commune or An Lap commune. The road is convenient but has many steep passes; visitors can travel by motorbike or car.

Tourists coming here need to pay attention to monitoring the weather before the trip and fully prepare tents, sleeping bags, camping equipment, food and drinks, personal items, etc., if staying overnight. In particular, do not litter and clean up everything before leaving.
