Treasures of Bac Son Arch

The unique values of archaeology, history, culture, and geomorphology-geology on the arch of the Bac Son limestone mountains are not only considered “treasures” by the scientific community but also “key” for the future development of tourism in the surrounding area of Lang Son Geopark.

Phja Po Mountain, 1,541 metres above sea level, is considered the “Everest” of Lang Son province. The steep climb and unique terrain, with small oasis-like depressions with trees and water gaps at the mountain’s peak, combine with dense forests of rhododendrons.
