The road is famous for its hairpin bends clinging to high cliffs and splendid and majestic views on the way. Some sections of the road are lined by wild flowers and pine forests or overlook deep valleys where ethnic people’s villages scatter. A winding section of the Happiness Road - Photo: Hieu Truong |
