Sapa is located in Lao Cai province,
350 km from Hanoi, close to the border with China. The
Hoang Lien Son range of mountains dominates the district,
which is at the eastern extremity of the Himalayas.
This range includes Vietnam’s highest peak, Fansipan,
at a high of 3142m above sea level and a vast area covered
by thick forest, rich in wildlife. The town of Sapa
lies at the attitude of about 1,600m. The climate is
moderate, cool in summer, foggy and cold in winter with
occasional snowfall.
Sapa is home to a great diversity of ethnic minority
people. It is likely that, Sapa was first inhabited by highland minorities of H’mong
and Yao group and later came the Tay, Zay, and a small
number of Xa Pho to form the 5 main ethnic groups which
takes about 85% of the district’s population today
and a very small number of them live in Sapa town, most
of themlive in small villages and hamlets scattering
in valleys and
hamlets scattering in valleys and mountains throughout
the district.

Till middle of 20th Century,
a majority of the ethnic people live a moving style
earning a living by slash and burn agriculture which
caused huge damages to the nature. Nowadays, most
of them have changed into sedentary basing on intensive
farming and work their land on sloping terraces
cultivating rice and corn, since the vast majority
of the land is mountainous. However due to climate
condition, only one crops can be grown annually.
In spite of changes of living conditions, especially
fast better transportation, TV, media… offers
great opportunity to get contact with outside world,
the ethnic minority people still keeping their self
sufficient ways of life and maintain their own culture
and custom.
