* This year's Sa Pa ( Lao Cai ) rice harvest season coincides with the 4-day National Day holiday on September 2, suitable for a long trip to explore the Northwest highlands.

The brilliant golden season in Sa Pa usually begins at the end of August and lasts until the end of September. The entire Sa Pa forest is lit up with golden terraced fields, glowing in the sunlight, like soft golden silk ribbons embracing the Northwest mountains and forests. Coming to Sa Pa at this time, visitors will be able to admire a magnificent natural picture, where the sky and people are in harmony.

Ideal spots for rice viewing include Muong Hoa Valley, known as the “giant embroidery” of the Hmong people, with each field softly curving and embracing the mountainside. Ta Van and Ta Phin villages have a peaceful, simple beauty, with rice fields interspersed with wooden houses and evening smoke from kitchens. Meanwhile, Lao Chai and Y Linh Ho villages offer a wide-open view, where golden rice fields stretch to the horizon.

Those who prefer intimacy should choose to stay in homestays located in the middle of rice fields, where you can just open the window and feel the fragrant smell of ripe rice. Sa Pa also has cafes right next to terraced fields, so visitors can inhale the scent of rice and sip fragrant coffee in the morning mist. Of course, not every land has that privilege.

One of the most “unique” viewing angles for the ripe rice season is the Sun World Fansipan Legend cable car cabin on the journey to conquer the Roof of Indochina - Fansipan. Each terraced field appears like layers of golden waves, layer upon layer, weaving beautiful curves on that enchanting green carpet.
