It was used as a resistance base before the August 1945 Revolution. It is also where the Indochina Communist Party first carried out the National Congress (13 August 1945).

Keep riding on the beautiful road to Na Khan, where we stay with locals. This Nung’s village is in middle of nowhere.
Summary:
Take a half day motor ride in the morning, through Ba Be National Park
Ba Be National Park is an abundant bio-reserve area containing the world’s only fresh-water karst lake and several rare species of fauna and flora. Ba Be lake in Vietnam, the biodiverse 10,048 ha park – home to 1,268 species of flora and fauna, a series of caves and a gigantic freshwater lake – was established in 1992 by the Vietnamese Government to preserve forest ecosystems in the northeast.
Ba Be is home to over 3,000 people from the ethnic minorities of Tay, Nung, Dao, and Mong, who live in 13 villages within the park. The Tay people have inhabited Ba Be area for centuries and make up 58 percent of the population within the park’s boundaries.
Ride into Bac Ngoi village, where we have lunch and home-stay. It is located inside Ba Be National Park. Our home-stay in Tay’s family is right by the side of Ba Be lake with a wonderful and peaceful view.
In the afternoon, we take a boat ride on Ba Be lake to the other side, where we can explore Dau Dang waterfall on Nang river.
As one of the 27 ASEAN heritage gardens, Ba Be has the potential to attract nature lovers with its 450 ha natural freshwater lake, and 553 species of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish.
According to a survey from the Viet Nam Institute of Geosciences and Mineral Resources, over 11,000 years ago, an earthquake caused a collapse of the subterranean Nang River, creating a natural dam which led to the formation of Ba Be Lake.
Summary:
Take a motor ride though Ba Be National Park, we get out to Cho Ra, and then turn to head up The Cao Bac Pass offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. Increasing the pass we see hillsides carpeted with apiaries, Vietnam’s most famous honey-producing areas. We motor ride south-west to Cao Bang and breach several passes on the route in an area hosting huge mountain scenery.
Overnight in Cao Bang
Summary:
Get out of town, we motorcycle up to Ma Phuc Pass of Cao Bang Province. It is on the way between Cao Bang Town and the Ban Gioc Waterfall. The pass is not famous with the elevation or the danger like some others in Vietnam, but with the natural beauty that one could capture from the top of the pass.
Keep riding to Ban Gioc waterfall, one of Vietnam’s best-known waterfalls. It’s a very scenic spot, marking the border with China, but sees very few visitors. The name Ban Gioc is derived from the Montagnard languages spoken in the area, and is sometimes spelt Ban Doc. The waterfall is the largest, although not the highest, in the country. The vertical drop is 53m, but it has an impressive 300m span; one end of the falls is in China, the other is in Vietnam. The falls have three levels, creating a sort of giant staircase, and there’s enough water any time, most years, to make the trip worthwhile.
Lunch in local restaurant before we get another way back to Quang Uyen. This is the territory of Nung An people. Homestay in a host family and the hostess is a great cook.
This could be the best ride ever.
Overnight in Quang Uyen.
Summary:
