Impressive Sapa in winter
Duc Anh/VOV5 -  
(VOVWORLD) - Visiting the famous tourist destination in the north of Vietnam known as Sapa, in winter, you’ll have an opportunity to admire the majestic natural scenery and experience the coldness of Vietnam’s northwestern region.
|
Located at a high altitude, the average temperature of Sapa in winter is from 3 to 10 DC. |
|
When winter comes, Sapa is foggy with occasional sunny days, creating a picturesque scene for the town to contemplate. |
|
Leaving the foggy Sapa town, the zigzag paths lead you to small villages where you seem to touch white clouds. |
|
Traveling to Sapa in winter, the first destination that you should not miss is Ham Rong Mountain. The weather at the top of Ham Rong is especially cold. But at Ham Rong peak, you will have the opportunity to admire an incredibly majestic and romantic natural scene. |
|
In particular at Ham Rong top, there is the so-called ‘San May’ (Cloud Yard), an ideal place to view the whole panorama of Sapa town. |
|
When the sun rises and dispels the fog, rice terraced fields appear at the foot of the hill. |
|
The waterfalls look like silk scarves pouring down, making Sapa landscapes amazingly beautiful. |
|
Your trip to Sapa in the cold weather of early winter will be unforgettable if you can sit by a warm fire, enjoy a cup of corn wine or a bowl of ‘Thang Co’, (a traditional dish of local Mong ethnic people made of horse meat, heart, liver, innards, blood, and 12 kinds of spices), and listen to the locals’s stories about life. |
|
Sapa’s winter is harsh with the temperature sometimes dropping to below zero and ice covering tree branches and grass. But this always attracts tourists and photographers to take the most beautiful pictures of wintertime in Sapa. |
