Trekking in Sapa

I have been having a great time in Sapa. It is very comfortable here as the town is dedicated to tourism.

The ethnic minority groups that live in the villages around here add local colour, as is evidenced by this typical market scene.




The main groups that come to the market at Sapa are the Black H'mong who are the largest ethnic group,



and the red Dao people. This tribe shaves their forehead and eyebrows and wear these striking red turbans.
