| Recently, many tourist groups have come to conquer Puxailaileng peak. From Vinh city, you have to go up National Highway 7A, turn into the center of Na Ngoi commune, then take a pickup truck or motorbike 17km to Buoc Mu Border Guard Station. From Buoc Mu Border Guard Station, tourists will hire locals to carry their motorbikes along the border patrol route. This route has been concreted, but due to the rugged terrain, many sections have been eroded by rain and floods, making travel extremely difficult. Photo: Dinh Tuyen |
