A place still retains original beauty of Sapa

Hình ảnh
Hau Chu Ngai is about 7 kilometers from the center of Sapa Town and located at more than 1,600 meters above sea level. Tourism in Hau Chu Ngai has not been developed much. The road leading to Hau Chu Ngai is difficult to negotiate as it is narrow and bumpy. Along the roadside, Hau Chu Ngai seems to contain a whole valley of clouds, making tourists feel like they are immersed in an endless sea of clouds. However, this can limit driving visibility. The days with low temperatures, high humidity and sunshine are ideal for successful “cloud hunting” moments. These days, Hau Chu Ngai appears impressive with a vast sea of white clouds. Dawn and dusk are the ideal times for hunting clouds. Hau Chu Ngai still retains the primary and wild beauty of a peaceful mountainous region, which differs from the bustle of the center of Sapa Town. There are not many human interventions, so besides a few accommodations, food services in Hau Chu Ngai are almost non-existent. Hau Chu Ngai still...
