Sapa ranked in Top 9 new tourist attractions
According to the Rough Guides, a highly acclaimed British website providing tourist information and guides, the northern mountainous of
Sapa (Lao Cai Province) has been listed among top 9 news tourist attractions throughout the world.
For those who want to conquer the Peak of Fansipan Mountain (with the high of 3,143m), the magazine recommended that they should use a 20-minute flight by cable car (which is planned to complete in late April 2015), instead of joining a hiking trip to Fansipan for about four days. Additionally, the Rough Guides describes the cable car to Fansipan’s peak as the world’s longest and highest one, no less, running up from sleepy Sa Pa Town in Lao Cai Province to Indochina’s rooftop. ![]() The peak of Fansipan Mountain at the high of 3,143m “Enjoy the view from the summit before exploring Sapa itself, an isolated community set to become firmly established on the tourist trail – the cable car will transport 2,000 people per hour, the same number as reached the peak in an entire year previously”, also said the magazine. Top 9 new tourist attractions included Shanghai Tower (China), Lincoln Castle (the UK), the Whitney Museum of American Art (New York), Ice Caves (Iceland), Lost and Found festival (Malta), Dreamland (the UK), Treetop Crazy Rider (Australia), and Musée des Confluences (France). |
