Fansipan, dubbed the 'Roof of Indochina,' is also the highest mountain on the Indonchina Peninsula, which includes Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.

The mountain fascinates visitors with its majestic natural landscapes and has long served as a worthy challenge for adventure seekers.

Visitors can opt to reach the top of Fansipan by cable car or by hiking from the Hoang Lien National Park.
