It is holidaying time again.. ![]() terraced rice fields Went on a short trip to Vietnam last week, (never have thought I would be stamping my foot on Vietnam soil..ever). Anyway, when a friend asked me if I am interested, I thought we are going to the all time famous Halong Bay, but when I heard " Sapa"..I was like.. "what"???.."where"?? (my ignorance - never really studied the world map). So, the next second had me browsing through the world wide web and found out that this place is in the mountains located at Lao Cai province, which is in the northwest of Vietnam, where several highland minority groups - Hmong, Yao, Tay & Giao live. Next, thought, "ok, at least, it is a cool place, even in June and we can ecsape the Hanoi heat" (we are to get on a sleeper train from Hanoi to Sapa and back). Another piece of info - Sapa is famous for its terraced rice fields..very scenic, very touristy and of course, a good place for photography. ![]() the train BUT, the train ride is what I dreaded - 8 hours??!!..Well, we travelled on Livitrans Express. The train comprises of 7 wooden carriages with 4 berths and toilets. There are mineral water and cookies - all compliments from Livitrans! Luckily for me, there are power points for charging my camera battery. |
