Visitors to Sun World Fansipan Legend will have many unique vantage points to 
admire the awe-inspiring beauty of the northwest -- especially the "rooftop of 
Indochina", Mount Fansipan, and the Muong Hoa Valley. 

Within the complex, visitors can also immerse themselves in the northwestern 
mountainous culture by attending traditional festivals and discovering all 
about the many hill tribes who have lived around the "City in the clouds" for 
many centuries.

Departing from Sapa, the Muong Hoa funicular connects the town with the 
Fansipan cable car station. The short but wonderful funicular ride will thrill 
people of all ages as it trundles through mysterious tunnels, crosses a viaduct 
and offers passengers wide-views of the beautiful natural landscapes and 
terraced rice fields at an altitude of 1,600 meters. 

As they ride in the Sun World Fansipan Legend Cable Car System, passengers will 
have breathtaking views of the mountain scenery. When they reach the top of 
Fansipan, at a height of 3,143m, they can visit a complex of spiritual 
buildings and shrines that showcase the ancient beauty of Vietnamese 
architecture as well as the country's spiritual beliefs. 

Having Sun World Fansipan Legend recognized as "Vietnam's Leading Tourist 
Attraction 2019" is certainly a huge acknowledgement of the tireless efforts 
made by Sun Group to develop and deliver truly world-class tourism products and 
high-grade, transformative projects that have made an immense contribution in 
promoting Vietnam as a travel destination all around the world.
