According to Mr. Hung, when coming to Ha Giang this spring, in addition to admiring the beautiful scenery, visitors can also experience the activity of hunting for tree seals in souvenir tourism passports.

To start the program, visitors collect the Ha Giang - Ha Giang Passport travel passport and stamp the first stamp at the ice cream counter right next to the Km0 milestone (Ha Giang City).

Next, on the route to explore 10 famous places named in the tourist passport, visitors just need to find a sign "Dong moi here" to collect tree stones engraved with the separate symbols of each point.

Each mark is not only a memory but also a testament to the journey we have gone through. The travel passport encourages me to travel more, learn more about each location, culture and people of Ha Giang, said Mr. Thai Hung.

Ms. Huyen Trang - the owner of a landmark ice cream shop in Ha Giang City that was once "hot", said that tourists can buy souvenir tourism passports at the ice cream counter for 30,000 VND/ trip.

She shared: "I have traveled to many places in the world, and each place has a special souvenir. Starting from that idea, I created Ha Giang Passport - a unique tourist passport, helping tourists to record their journey impressions in their own way when exploring Ha Giang.
