The Vietnamese Narrative with Nhan Phan
Episode 9: Sapa 1 - A Descriptive Introduction
I returned from my trip to Buon Me Thuot where I had a couple of days to prepare for my last trip of the summer: a two-week long excursion up North to Sapa and Hanoi. This two-week trip would prove to be the adventure of a lifetime anyone could ever ask for. Hanoi, the historic capital of Vietnam, is known for its rustic Northern cuisine as well as old temples, monuments, as well as ancient lakes. Sapa, the picturesque small town near Lao Cai and the border with China, is known for its staircase rice plantation valleys, tribal villages and their art, as well as natural sights, to behold such as waterfalls, bamboo forests, tall mountains, and green lush canyons. Over the first several days of the trip, I embarked on a mop-ed highland adventure that spanned over 19 districts, over 400km, and over 20 combined total hours. This episode will be different from other episodes: this episode is a descriptive introduction to Sapa.
