Lost in a 'fairytale land' atop Fansipan during the cloud season.

Arriving in Sa Pa during the period from October to March annually, you will easily encounter the scene of clouds leisurely covering the valley, weaving through the hillsides, and embracing the villages like a giant, winding silk ribbon. But if you want to reach the "cloud season masterpiece", no place is more ideal than Fansipan Legend peak, the roof of Indochina at an altitude of 3,143m. (Photo: Photographer Minh Tu)

Stepping off the cable car station, you will feel like you've stepped into a pure fairy tale world, where the scenery is truly spectacular, the earth and sky seem to merge into one with a crystal-clear sky, a cool, crisp air, and before your eyes is a vast sea of white clouds in the sky.

Cloud hunting on Fansipan peak, whether at sunrise or sunset, is truly exquisite. Especially, that peaceful, transcendent scenery will help you shed all worries and worldly dust. Your soul will feel purified by the wild, magnificent beauty of nature as you stand silently watching the sun gradually disappear behind the Hoàng Liên Sơn mountain peaks embraced by clouds.
