Stop 2

Cat Cat Village is a renowned Black H'Mông ethnic minority settlement located in a Sapa valley, about 3 kilometers from the town center in Vietnam. Hailed as the "most beautiful village in the Northwest of Vietnam," it is famous for its magnificent terraced rice fields, traditional stilt houses, and rich ethnic minority culture. Visitors here can descend the hillside steps, enjoying the impressive Cat Cat Waterfall, the scenic valley views, and experiencing local traditional clothing and cultural song and dance performances. It is a popular tourist attraction that blends natural beauty with cultural charm.

Moana Sapa is a super popular Instagram-worthy photo spot located in Sapa, Vietnam. With its exotic installations and magnificent mountain views, it has been dubbed the "Little Bali of Vietnam" or a "Virtual Paradise."

The attraction is conveniently located, just about 500 meters to 1 kilometer from Sapa's town center, making it easily accessible. Its biggest feature is the seamless integration of various gigantic sculptures with Sapa's unique terraced rice fields, the Hoàng Liên Sơn mountain range, and the cloud-sea scenery, creating dreamy and surreal photography backdrops.

After your adrenaline-pumping adventure, the true beauty of Sapa is just beginning to unfold! Your journey will ascend from the ground up to the clouds of the Hoàng Liên Sơn mountain range: first, take the modern cable car to easily conquer Fansipan, the "Roof of Indochina," and experience the thrill of standing on Vietnam's highest point, looking down upon the magnificent sea of clouds.

Tired of crowded influencer spots? Sapa's true sanctuary for healing is the Sailing Café! This is more than just a coffee shop; it's your personal viewing platform nestled on the hillside. Spend a moment with a cup of coffee and witness the Hoàng Liên Sơn mountain range spread before you like a living, magnificent canvas: layers of terraced rice fields and tranquil farmhouses scattered amongst the clouds and mist—a breathtaking sight.
