Sapa

Located 1,500m above sea level, Sapa lies in Hoang Lien Son Mountains, northwest of Hanoi and has an amazing diversity of flora and fauna. Mount Fansipan, the highest mountain in Indochina at 3,134m, is covered with clouds all year round and temperatures often drop below zero. For visitors the various ethnic minorities in their colourful customs, who visit the local weekend markets on foot or on horseback, are a fascinating sight to witness.
