The Sa Pa tourism program spanning 120 years is a momentous occasion that encompasses tourism, culture, and social events, all in honor of the 65th anniversary of Uncle Ho’s visit to Lao Cai. This program serves to solidify Sa Pa’s standing as a national tourist area and a prime destination in Vietnam, thanks to its extensive 120-year history of development.
To showcase the cultural values, tourism resources, and one-of-a-kind products unique to Sa Pa, the Tourism Culture Week is set to kick off on September 20th. Alongside this, a range of highly anticipated events will also take place during the week, such as the Sa Pa discovery experience program, the Sa Pa-VMM 2023 International Mountain Marathon, the Full Moon Festival, the Sports Dance Festival, and numerous cultural and artistic exchange events.
Sa Pa Tourism is commemorating its 120th anniversary by hosting a special art program on September 23. The objective is to showcase Sa Pa’s exceptional tourism potential and unique products, while also highlighting the 120-year journey of tourism in the region. The ultimate goal is to establish Sa Pa as an internationally recognized National Tourist Area, in line with National Tourism Year 2023.
