However, conquering this place is not an easy task. “You need to be strong and courageous because this is a super challenging journey. When I took a taxi here, I thought I was sitting behind a Formula One race car, "said Thuy with a smile.

The "Dinosaur spine" is about 3 km long, but the road is narrow with steep rocky terrain. Both sides are deep abysses that make travelers feel like there is no bottom. It is one of the most dangerous climbing routes but also the most attractive to adventurers.

“The feeling of reaching the top in the dense fog, raising your hand in front of your face, and being able to touch the clouds is truly unique. This sea of clouds is vast. There is really no way to describe the feeling at that time because I felt like I was in another world” - Thuy remembers the moment when she saw the clouds.
