In the gentle April sunshine, Sun World Fansipan Legend is more brilliant than ever when more than 1,000 double cherry trees simultaneously put on a bright pink coat.
Unlike the fragile peach blossom color often seen, cherry blossoms in Fansipan are a double flower variety with thick layers of petals, stacked on top of each other like small roses. At the beginning of April, when the sun begins to turn golden on the sacred peak, thousands of cherry blossom trees simultaneously "awake up", creating a brilliant pink silk strip stretching across the mountainside.
Unlike the flowers that bloom early and wither late, cherry blossoms here have rare and persistent vitality, maintaining their fresh color for a whole month thanks to their thick double petals.
To hunt for cherry blossom photos, tourists should not miss the area of gate A2 or clock tower - where flower hills bloom densely, creating a poetic check-in setting amidst the shimmering sunshine and the spectacular natural scenery of the Northwest sky and earth.
The most poetic stop is Muong Hoa Station and the entrance to the large rose garden, where classic European architecture blends with romantic Asian pink like a movie frame. The double cherry blossom clusters here seem to be more brilliant when placed next to a wall imbued with ancient architecture.
After freely checking in with cherry pink, don't miss other brilliant colors of Fansipan this season. The entrance to the station and the clock tower area this time are also adorned with the romantic beauty of red maple trees. The maple foliage with its luxurious red color not only creates a check-in scene like in the heart of Europe, but also contains a message about the endurance and strong vitality amidst the harsh climate of the sacred peak Fansipan.
Each red leaf is like a symbol of luck and happiness, helping the soul of a traveler become light and pure when touching the beauty that is both modern and pristine here.
Fansipan this season also has a "specialty" of wild rhododendron flowers that are just blooming their first flowers on the mountainside. If you take the cable car, visitors can easily admire 300-year-old rhododendron trees blooming in all colors with red, pink, purple, white in the middle of the mountains and forests, like flames in the precarious cliffs.
The combination of the pristine, intense beauty of the symbolic flower of the Northwest mountains and forests and the tranquil, sacred spiritual space creates a very different experience at the sacred Fansipan peak.
To bring tourists closer to the "treasure" of Hoang Lien old forest, a pedestrian walk to admire rhododendron flowers has been elaborately built along La Han road. Located at an altitude of over 3,000m at Kim Son Bao Thang Tu, this 60m long road winds around 30 ancient rhododendron trees hundred years old, bringing the experience of admiring flowers at the closest distance.
The journey to conquer Fansipan does not only stop at the colorful flowers but also brings pure, pristine experiences of cultural values at Ban May. Right at the foot of the mountain, where the quintessence of 7 brotherly ethnic groups converges, Ban May appears as a living museum with ancient wooden houses elaborately brought from remote villages, preserving the soul of the great forest.
Amidst the space filled with spring colors, Ban May is still bustling with the sound of khen and the graceful dances of the Northwest villages. Try to transform into boys and girls from the mountainous region to blend into the festival atmosphere, dance sap or sip a cup of passionate corn wine, enjoy fragrant and chewy bamboo tubes of rice to fully appreciate Northwest cuisine.
Fansipan cherry blossom season only knocks on the door once a year and lasts for only 30 days from the beginning of April. Don't miss the opportunity to touch the most brilliant flower season of the Hoang Lien forest once.
