Hanging over 5000 km square with the population of 6000 people, with
lush greenery of mountain ranges is just the beginning of your
expedition to the jade of Far East. Imagine a land lush in tropical
forest and emerald rice terrace fields and a land alive with very
colorful tradition and culture. The old French-built hill station of
Sapa (1600m above sea level) is the natural starting point for a unique
experience of the Sapa area. This includes the Hoang Lien Son mountain
range, and Indochina's highest peaks, Fansipan (3143m), and 6 different
ethnic minority groups, each one colorful, distinct and with its own
language and cultural values.
