Ha Anh shares her experience going to Sa Pa and the Fansipan cable car 2
In early February, supermodel Vu Ha Anh and her fiancé Olly Dowden went to Hanoi to celebrate Tet, and at the same time had a trip to Sa Pa with her mother and children.
Ha Anh’s family took the Sapaly Express train from Hanoi to Lao Cai with a travel time of 8 and a half hours.
Ha Anh and her fiancé had sweet memories during their trip to Sapa.
Because the trip coincided with the opening of the cable car system to Fansipan peak, the family did not miss this opportunity.
My, the supermodel’s younger sister, shared: `Determined to let my brother-in-law explore the mountain town, my sister and we took him into the small winding roads, where the villagers wore fancy brocade clothes.
Although hesitant at first, the supermodel and her family still decided to take the cable car to the top of Fansipan.
The Fansipan cable car system is currently the longest three-wire cable car system in the world (6,325 m) and has the world’s largest difference between departure and arrival stations (1,410 m).
The journey is quite long so visitors can see many beautiful scenes of mountains, forests, and terraced fields along both sides of the road.
The inauguration of the cable car line shortens the 2-day and night-long journey to conquer the roof of Indochina to just 15 minutes.
As a truly experienced tourist, the Next top Model 2010 judge said it was interesting to be able to see the whole scene from above, feeling overwhelmed and proud of the beautiful scenery of the country.
`My fiancé is a foreigner. He and his family members were really excited to reach the top of the highest mountain in Indochina and mingle with nature on the Hoang Lien Son range,` she said.
However, during the trip, the supermodel was worried because tourist awareness was not high, many plastic bags and bottles were thrown along the road.
The cable car boarding pass was taken by Ha Anh’s sister.
