Vietnam EP. 02 - Taking Train to Lao Cai, Sapa, Sa Pa Sightseeing and Trekking Tour, Cat Cat Village
I took an overnight train from Hanoi to Lao Cai and transferred to a bus to Sa Pa (Sapa).
The town of Sapa lies at an elevation of about 1500 meters and is an essential city in Lao Cai province that is famous among local and foreign tourists. The weather was mostly rainy, cold, and foggy during my stay between 14th to 17th May 2022.
My first time sleeping in a hostel in my life is impressive. Sapa Capsule Hostel is recommended for everyone. The owner is very friendly and helpful.
I've tried a day trekking tour to nearby villages. It is also a must-do activity for every tourist coming to Sapa.
The final destination, Cat Cat Village, is wonderful. It is near the city and a must-visit place for a short hiking experience, learning about the way of life, customs, and traditions of the local people in the mountainous area.
