Bauhinia flowers cast a spell over Dien Bien Phu
March is a nice time of year to visit the northwestern province of Dien Bien when the beautiful Bauhinia season peaks, painting the region white. From the highland districts to Dien Bien Phu city, Bauhinia flowers (ban flowers) bloom brilliantly for several weeks.
