Sapa-Bac Ha market – Sunday market

February 15th, 2009

Depart from: Hanoi
Stop off: Sapa
Duration: 3 days 4 nights

A former French hill station, located in the middle of the breaktaking landscapes in the north of Vietnam, Sapa is one of the most wonderful places in Asia and is a magical combination of landscapes, ethnic cultures and bracing mountain air. There are excellent areas for hiking through lush mountain valleys to the remote villages of diffirent minorities, including the Black H’mong and the Red Dzao …..Bac Ha Sunday Market – Some 100km (62 miles) from Sapa, this is probably the most famous market in the region and more along the lines of what Sapa was once like. Here, various hill tribes converge every Sunday morning to conduct commerce. As a visitor, you’re certainly part of the trade here because folks are keen to sell you their wares, but this market isn’t as much about the tourist buck (yet) as it is about small-time commerce
