Experience the Glass Bridge in Vietnam
Experience “the longest Glass Bridge in Indochina”, The Sapa Glass Bridge (also called Cau Kinh Rong May which means Dragon in Cloud Glass Bridge) which is 60m long and 5m wide, however, at the height of more than 2000m above sea level.
The view from Sapa Glass Bridge is absolutely stunning which was built on the top of O Quy Ho Pass and at more than 500m of Hoang Lien Son Mountain cliff height.

Sapa Fansipan Peak, which can only be seen after accumulating virtues for three generations
I went there because I really wanted to see Sapa from the wind chime. Sapa is a mountainous area, so it's always a cloudy city like fog. After seeing the hazy sky every day, I made up my mind to climb to the top of Fansipan and took the cable car!!!
The weather on the way to the top changed every moment.
The moment the sky suddenly cleared up!!!
I had to take the cable car and climb up many stairs.
The cold and wind were no joke, but it was still great. Fansipan is worth a visit. They say it's higher than Hallasan!!! It's amazing.
Glass Bridge and Silver Waterfall - The perfect Combi
#favouriteitinerary We came across this pair when looking for places to go in Sapa.
The Glass Bridge was disappointing due to the misty weather. But the tight rope to no-where does seem to make it even more scary! Nonetheless, what we could glimpse from the fog made us want to revisit in the future.
The silver waterfall itself was a sight! We enjoyed the view more at the entrance therefore the tickets were not really necessary. There are a few stalls and a carpark near it which sells unique local food to try!

The roof of Indochina
#vietnamtrip Early visit, meant missing the crowds mid October we visited.
By going early, you really get the best experience.
A lot of steps, wear comfortable,good shoes, can get windy, and be prepared for amazing views.The highest peak of the Indo-Chinese peninsula...It was an amazing experience to be at the peak and see the spectacular view from the top. Truly amazed with the engineering team who built the Cable Car and the Architectural Team who built the entire structures.
Roof tiles of Indochina
#January travel support event #Sapa travel
I think the most famous place in Sapa, Vietnam is Fansipan.
If you come here, you can meet all the tourists.
It is the highest in Vietnam and the highest in the Indochina Peninsula, so it is called the 'Roof of Indochina'. If there were no cable car and funicular, it would have taken two whole nights, but you can get to Fansipan in about 15 minutes.
There are ways to get up like this, and I know there is also a trekking course where you can climb the mountain yourself with a guide. In fact, I saw many foreign tourists wearing raincoats and big backpacks and looking like they were stepping on mud. I gave up on the weather.
Fansipan Maitreya Avalokitesvara Statue
#January travel support event #Sapa travel
The clear weather on the summit of Fansipan, which is said to require three generations of virtue,
was easily bypassed by me hahaha. It was clear when I climbed up, but I think I heard Vietnamese people say
that the weather on Fansipan is like a woman's heart. I could only see the shape of the Maitreya Avalokitesvara statue. It's okay. I'm satisfied enough just by climbing up.
Pansipan small shrine
#January travel support event #Sapa travel
On the way down from Fansipan, it was a little cold so I went into a temple
It's really interesting that there are temples big and small everywhere in Vietnam
The interior here is very well organized and has a solemn atmosphere
It felt like I was in a place like Seokguram Grotto, but the center was well lit to make me concentrate. It's perfect for a walk around.
Sapa Glass Bridge
At first, I thought there wouldn't be much, but when I got there, there was an elevator and a shuttle bus to the top. Then we took the elevator up to the top, which was very high, almost above the clouds. The atmosphere was endless. The top of the bridge was very high and beautiful. The glass was very clear. You can take pictures and walk up and there are shops along the way. You can do many activities up there. #Sapa #Sapa, the city of mountains

Rong May Glass Bridge
Rong May Glass Bridge, a new tourist attraction in Sapa that has not been open for long, 360-degree view, can see as far as the eye can see
By glass bridge 🪞🪞 have to drive a little past Love Waterfall, but the view along the way is very beautiful. Below there is a parking lot for tourists and a shuttle van to come to the glass elevator area and go up to the top of the glass bridge. There will be shoe covers to wear.
The glass bridge will be built along the mountain and gradually increase in levels. I highly recommend it. The wind up there is very strong. Not suitable for people who are afraid of heights.
For tourists who travel by renting a motorcycle, it is recommended to leave time to return to Sapa town because the road is very dark.

The Best View from Sapa, Vietnam!
With the chilling wind and relaxing nature vibes, this is by far the best view! 🩷 Indeed the people of Sapa vietnam are kind and very accommodating. We are so lucky to visit Sapa in this kind of weather. 🥰🥰 Best month to visit: This was October, so if you want clear skies probably September to November. The coldest month will be from December to February 😶🌫️😶🌫️#vietnam #sapavietnam
Fansipan Summit ! 🏃🏻♂️🔥
Good experience here, good nature and nice place! ❤️#naturalwonders
Lonely Tree 🌳
Lonely tree
For those who go to Sapa and rent a car to drive out of town, on the way to the Rong May Glass Bridge, you can stop and visit the little one. It looks very lonely. 🌳🌳
But the viewpoint in this area can be said to have a view as far as the eye can see.
It is a place that should be added to your checklist. You can sit and take pictures under the tree near the tree. It is suitable for people who are not afraid of heights. The wooden bridge is quite strong, but if the wind is strong, it will shake a little. 💨💨

Backdrop of scenic 🏔️

Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or simply seeking a new experience, the Sapa Glass Bridge offers a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that will stay with you forever. #familytrips2024 #vietnamtrip
Walking into the clouds
Walking on a transparent floor hundreds of meters above the ground gives an adrenaline rush, combining excitement with a sense of wonder. And some maybe shaking their legs while walking 🙈 when I go, it’s a rainy weather and the glass floor is very slippery and very difficult to walk, so when you come here do take note to wear proper footing and enjoy the magnificent views. #familytrips2024 #vietnamtrip
The roof of Indochina
#vietnamtrip Please please don't ever miss this place if you are ever in Sa Pa. Our tour leader recommended coming in the afternoon because the weather more often than not is not good in the morning meaning you come up and see nothing. But coming in the afternoon also won't guarantee a clear weather so it really depends on the weather.
The view is magnificent! Truly one of the most beautiful views I've ever seen. To go to the peak you can either climb the stairs or ride the furnicular. It costs 200, 000 VND return and 120, 000 VND one way. I climb my way up and use the furnicular down but I recommend use the furnicular up and use the stairs your way down. Worth it I tell you even at the end of it I couldn't even feel my legs LOL.
There is also a cafe at the peak and you can enjoy a variety of coffee and drinks pricing ranging from 85, 000 VND and above while enjoying the view.
The roof of Indochina
#vietnamtrip Fansipan is Amazing! The cable car ride up the mountain gives nice views of rice paddies below, and waterfalls on the way up. Once there, if you want to limit the climbing there is a funicular that takes you almost to summit. Then it’s a short climb to the summit at 3,143 meters / 10,312 ft, the highest in Indochine region.
The weather up here is very unpredictable, it may be sunny at the bottom of mountain and covered in clouds at the summit. To be sure, you should bring jackets and rain gear as its windy up there and rainy at times. But the clouds are the constant. You are so high you are essentially “in the clouds” or above them. So we had to wait 2 hours for 3 brief 5 seconds of “cloud clearance” to get some amazing shots of this mountain top.
This is a must-see if you are in Sapa area!
Phan Xi Pang aka Fansipan
#vietnamtrip
Phan Xi Pang aka Fansipan, is the highest peak mountain in Indochina region. With in elevation of about 3120 metres. In 2016 they built a world class cable car system. And has to climb many steps at the top, optionally there is a Funicular car system that talked you from near the cable car end to the top. It's supposed to be spiritual and Vietnams highest point. It's very cold at the top and very strong winds can blow. The Pagoda and the Buddha statue and the temple are all good to visit. At the pinnacle they have a few photo points
