A low, diesel hum and the rattle of a sleeper bus dissolve into dawn as you step off in Ha Giang — mist clinging to the ridgelines and the road already unspooling toward passes that insist you look up. Over the next three days your transport is two wheels and a practiced local rider: hairpin after hairpin through limestone folds, terraces that tilt like pages in a well-thumbed book, and the Ma Pi Leng cleft where the Nho Que River dares you to look down.
