Explore the giant sinkhole in the heart of Ha Giang

Translated by Bing
3 km from Meo Vac town, the sinkhole in Giang Su Phin (Ha Giang) was recently discovered and is attracting the adventurous tourism community because of the challenging experience and majestic beauty.

Owning a rocky plateau and passes that are both rugged and poetic, Ha Giang has always been an attractive destination for the travel-loving community, especially backpackers. But few people know that Ha Giang also has a huge and mysterious sinkhole located about 3 km from Meo Vac town, hidden on a pine hill of Tia Chi Dua village, Giang Chu Phin commune.


Giap Van Hai (30 years old), known as the "tourist land" of Ha Giang along with youtubers Hoang Nam - Challenge Me, Sunny Highlands are the ones who discovered this sinkhole. During the trip to explore Meo Vac to find unique places that can hold tourists, they found the sinkhole through satellite map detection and using drones.

Describing his feelings when he touched the bottom of the sinkhole, Giap Van Hai used two words "happy". This place is still unspoiled, so he has to use a seat belt to be able to go down the pit. "When I was down there and looked up, I felt so small compared to nature. This reminds me of the story of The Frog Sitting at the Bottom of the Well. If I go back to experience it next time, I will challenge myself for 24 hours under the pit to be able to feel more fully," Hai shared.

He added that during the exploration process, many other large and small sinkholes were also discovered in Ha Giang. However, this is a pit with a beautiful angle and is very easy to explore.


Overcoming the risks and climbing, visitors will enjoy the result of a sense of conquest, the majesty of nature and beautiful photos. Locals do not know when the sinkhole was formed, but they often go down to the pit to get grass to feed the cows. The plants below the pit are diverse, there are many ferns that make visitors feel like they are penetrating the air, exploring prehistoric times.

Currently, this place has not been exploited for safe tourism. Visitors who want to challenge themselves can only follow the trail that people often take, or swing a rope to go down. Youtuber Hoang Nam estimates that the depth of the pit is about 38.5 m. Visitors who come to conquer the sinkhole need to pay attention to bring enough protective equipment, accompanied by experienced people to ensure their safety.
