⛰️ Fansipan Summit – My Magical Journey Above the Clouds

I bought the Fansipan cable car all-access pass in advance for about $56 SGD, and honestly, it was worth every cent! Buying it online saved me from the long queues at the ticket counter — and trust me, the lines can get really long, especially during peak hours. The cable car ride itself was absolutely breathtaking — floating through layers of mist, gliding over lush valleys and terraced rice fields, and eventually ascending into the clouds. It felt like I was being lifted into a mystical world. When I went, it was drizzling, cold, and very foggy. The weather changed super suddenly, so a good tip: bring a raincoat and wear warm clothes, because the higher you go, the chillier and wetter it gets. 🌬️ Up at the summit, you’re greeted by the awe-inspiring Big Buddha statue surrounded by clouds, and a collection of beautiful temples and shrines that feel peaceful and sacred. There are quite a few stairs to climb, so wear comfy shoes — but every step is worth it for the views and the experience. Fansipan is often called the “Roof of Indochina,” and after being up there, I totally understand why. It’s not just about reaching the top, it’s the whole journey — the changing weather, the spiritual energy, and the sense of accomplishment when you finally stand at the summit. 🌧️🥶 So yes, layer up, plan ahead, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure in the clouds! If you’re looking to escape the summer heat, Sapa is the perfect destination. Tucked away in Vietnam’s northern mountains, the weather here is cool, refreshing, and peaceful — a world away from the humid city #summervacay #vietnam #sapa #fansipan
