Sapa in early December, the weather is still a little sunny and warm of the previous month. By the end of the month, the temperature begins to gradually decrease, fluctuating 5-10 degrees Celsius. Cold-loving cherry apricots also stretch out, showing off pink on the Northwest hillside.
Apricot cherries bloom most beautifully at the end of November to the end of December. Particularly, Oolong tea hill (Sa Pa) is green all year round.
From 7 to 8 a.m. is the golden hour for photo hunting here. At this time dawn has dawned, the morning dew drops still linger on the young tea leaves, the clouds begin to give way to the rays of the morning sun. Visitors to the hill around this time will admire the sparkle as someone sneaks sparkling glitter beads on tea leaves. The morning freshness cleanses the soul.
In fact, if you look closely, it is not the cherry plum that is all pink, some of the flowers far from the stem are mixed with a hint of orange.
Overall, the row of cherry apricot trees winding along the tea hill walkway is very beautiful, but if visitors want to check-in with flowers, photographers need to have a little technique. Because the trunk is relatively tall, visitors can choose to angle the camera and phone from the bottom, the photographer stands at the bottom of the slope to catch all the flowers above.
Visitors who want to visit the tea hill need to buy at least one ounce of oolong tea, priced at 150,000 VND / litre.
Oolong tea plantation is about 8 km from the center of Sapa town in the direction of O Quy Ho pass. Visitors can follow the direction of Highway 4D to reach the hill.
