Recommended by our local guide, we prepare to explore one of the most iconic sites on our North Vietnam Motorbike Tour: the Hmong King Palace and Dong Van Old Town. The Hmong King Palace, nestled in Xa Phin Village (Dong Van), was constructed in the early 20th century, taking inspiration from the word "王," meaning "king." This architectural marvel is not just a historical monument but a testament to the sophistication of native ethnic minorities.
Dong Van Old Town cradles in a valley encircled by rocky cliffs. Established in the early 20th century, it initially sheltered a few Hmong, Tay, and Chinese households before embracing more ethnic groups. Exploring this town offers a captivating glimpse into the lifestyles of the Kinh, Mong, Tay, and Hoa peoples.

Meo Vac Town nestles snugly in a small valley, embraced by rocky mountains. Here, most ethnic minorities have preserved their cultures, offering a unique opportunity to witness their traditional way of life. This day promises to be one of the finest motorbike rides in Vietnam.
