Covering over 20 hectares, and only 5km southeast from Sapa’s center, the Việt Nam-US hi-tech eco-tourism site, called the rose valley or love valley by the locals, seems to float in white clouds all the year round.

Millions of French rose plants have been grown here in recent years.

There are also a dozen of houses-on-stilts made of wood and roofed with stone tiles in European and domestic architectural styles.

To the site, tourists will have chances to enjoy various unique entertainment, tourist, and convalescence services, including traditional herbal bath and special art performances of Mông, Dao, Tày and Xa Phó ethnic minorities.

Here, tourists can participate in outdoor trips, conquer Fansipan Mount - the roof of Indochina, and taste local food specialties.
