Muong Hoa Valley

Starting as a small stream of water from the foot of Silver Waterfall about 14 km northwest of Sapa town, weaving its way along mountains’ feet southeast between the two mountain ranges.

About 8 kms southeast of Sapa town, the two mountain ranges open wider to form the Muong Hoa Valley which get wider and wider as it goes further south about 30 km. The Muong Hoa valley is famous for breathtaking scenery and is the largest farmland for rice growing in Sapa district.
