Lao Cai - With a length of about 50 km running through the majestic Hoang Lien mountain range, this is known as the first pass in the Northwest region.
The Hoang Lien Pass Road Tunnel Project connecting Sa Pa area with Tam Duong (Lai Chau province) has a total length of about 8.8 km, of which the main tunnel is 2.63 km long, the secondary tunnel is 2.65 km long.
