For those who believe travel is all about the journey rather than the destination, there’s no better way to fully experience a place than by driving through some of its scenic roads.
One of the most iconic sights of the Great Ocean Road is the Twelve Apostles, a set of towering limestone stacks that protrude from the ocean and create a breathtaking scene.
You’ll begin the Ha Giang Loop by driving across lush forested hills before arriving at the Vietnamese border with China, where you’ll find a series of limestone karts above the treeline.
This gorgeous road is dotted by wonderful stops to make every single mile of the way, so we recommend treating it as a multi-day road trip rather than a scenic drive in order to make the most of it.
With half-timbered houses dotting the villages along the way, cozy coffee shops, cuckoo clock workshops, and local distilleries being just a few of the highlights you’ll find along the way.
Culture, colorful medieval villages atop hills, and picture-perfect coastal views are all elements of this beautiful road.
This road is a loop where you’ll get to stop and see some of the most famous highlights in Iceland, including the Blue Lagoon, the Hallgrimskirkja Church, and Reynisfjara beach, to name just a few!
