At the end of November to December, Oolong tea hill wears a gorgeous and romantic new shirt, created by hundreds of cherry blossom trees. This beauty is a delicate harmony of nature and human hands. The combination of the blue of the sky, mountains and hills, tea plantations and the pink color of flowers, Oo Long Sa Pa tea hill every winter is as beautiful as a romantic picture, making anyone who passes by go from one emotion to another: surprise, vibration to passion.
Seen from a distance, each tea hill is like a series of upside-down bowls, interspersed with cherry blossom trees, nestled in rolling hills and mountains, white clouds. At the moment of dawn, Oolong tea hill is like a muse who has just been awakened, shimmering and gentle. At sunset, when the sky changes color until the last "drop" of sunshine falls, the scene becomes enchanting and poetic.

Entering the tea hills, walking on small roads, watching the green buds full of vitality, inhaling the smell of the earth, dew, and fragrant leaves to feel the freshness and purity here. The pale pink cherry blossom petals fluttered in the wind, gently falling to the ground. The scenery is no less than Japanese spring, located right in the middle of the Northwest sky.
It is known that Oolong is a tea farm owned by a Taiwanese owner. Therefore, in the middle of the tea plantation, there is a processing factory. You will also come across farmers harvesting tea. At a time when it is not crowded with visitors, the scenery of Oolong is as peaceful as any tea plantation in other highlands.
Last year, when the 4th wave of the epidemic had not yet broken out, the tea hill was open to welcome guests freely and for free. But this year, to ensure the safety of epidemic prevention and control, the tea hill was closed again. However, you can see the tea hills from above when you walk along National Highway 4C.

During the day, there are 2 times that you cannot miss to admire the best view of the tea hills, which are from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. This is the time when the most beautiful light, enhancing the pink color of the flowers, is more vibrant than ever. This is also the time when photographers gather to be able to hunt for the best photos. You need to depart from Sapa town before dawn in the cold of 5 degrees Celsius to reach Oolong tea hills before the first rays of the day appear. I firmly believe that the view of waking up at dawn on the Oolong tea hill is a worthy reward for those efforts.
Are you ready to wake up early?
