Fansipan Rose Festival 2026 has officially opened at Sun World Fansipan Legend with the theme "Rose Symphony". The event not only opens the summer tourist season but also marks the 10th anniversary of the formation and development of the iconic tourist area here.
These days, many tourists have flocked to the rose valley area of nearly 50,000m2 - the "heart" of the festival.
Here, more than 2,000 Sa Pa climbing rose trees and nearly 6,000 foreign rose trees from England, France, Germany, Japan... simultaneously show off their colors, creating a brilliant color range in the Hoang Lien Son mountains and forests.
From the brilliant yellow of Molineux, Golden Celebration to the dreamy purple of Blue Sky, Kate or the pure white of Summer Snow, Creamy Eden Rose... all blend together, creating a vivid "harmony", making visitors feel like they are lost in a fairy garden.
The festival space is elaborately staged with a series of artistic miniatures such as "The Giant Letter", "Sa Pa Calls, Hearts Answer" telephone booths or soft curved flower arches. Each small corner becomes a check-in point attracting visitors, especially during the April 30 - May 1 holiday.
Mr. Ngo Duy Dung - a tourist from Hanoi - excitedly shared: "I learned about the festival online, found it very beautiful, so I decided to go to Sa Pa. Coming to the place is even more impressive, flowers bloom brilliantly, activities are many, very worth experiencing with my family".
Not only flowers, this year's festival is also marked by a series of diverse art and experience activities. The highlight is the "Journey of Flowers" show at the rose garden stage, where the story of a rose from sprouting to blooming is told in contemporary dance language and folk music, evoking many reflections on the journey of human maturity.
The festival atmosphere became even more exciting with interactive games such as "Keep it careful not to fall", "Heart to mind", "Toy race"... attracting a large number of tourists to participate.
In particular, the center of Sa Pa became brilliant with the Rose Carnival parade. Hundreds of artisans in traditional costumes and elaborately decorated flower cars paraded through the streets, creating a jubilant festival atmosphere.
After immersing yourself in the flower space, visitors can visit Ban May - a place that recreates the cultural life of the Northwest ethnic groups with khen sounds, dances, and art programs such as "Sacred Peak Travelogue", "Northwest Flower Season".
The journey to the top of Fansipan also becomes an unforgettable experience as the rhododendron flower season is in full bloom. The flower-seeking promenade, about 60m long at an altitude of over 3,000m, offers the opportunity to admire hundred-year-old rhododendron trees in the sky.
At an altitude of 3,143m, the flag-raising ceremony on the top of Fansipan becomes a sacred emotional touch point, where the national flag flies in the sky and earth, arousing pride in each visitor.
