Among them, Cai Rang floating market has long been an enticing tourism feature of the locality. The market is the biggest of its kind in the Mekong Delta where trading on waterways has been a way of life for generations. It has been chosen as one of the 10 most impressive markets in the world by UK magazine Rough Guide.

Locating about 1,500m above the sea level, Sa Pa is endowed beautiful natural scenery. Traveling to Sa Pa in the northern province of Lao Cai in the autumn season is undoubtedly an excellent choice. The weather in Sa Pa during this time of the year is incredibly mild and cool, offering a pleasant atmosphere. In fact, you can even experience all four seasons in a single day, a phenomenon that seems straight out of a legend.

During autumn, the ripe golden rice terraces gracefully winding around the majestic hills will leave visitors in awe of their dreamlike beauty. If you're tired of taking the cable car to reach Fansipan peak, which is often called “the roof of Indochina” with a height of 3,143m above sea level, you can opt for a train ride to admire the vast beauty of the Muong Hoa Valley, which promises to offer you a fresh and surprising perspective of Sa Pa.
