The Ha Giang Buckwheat Flower Festival is a cultural festival that celebrates the beauty and diversity of the buckwheat flower, which is a symbol of the Dong Van Karst Plateau in Ha Giang Province, northeast Vietnam. The festival usually takes place in November, when the buckwheat flower blooms in various colors, creating a stunning landscape.

The festival aims to honor the unique cultural values of the Dong Van Karst Plateau, which is a UNESCO Global Geopark, and to attract visitors and develop tourism in the region. The festival includes an opening ceremony with the theme “The karst plateau – thousand blooming flowers” in Dong Van town. There are also other activities, such as a night of buckwheat wine, a display of buckwheat flower products, a photo exhibition of the buckwheat flower, and folk games and performances.
