Fansipan, 3.143m | The highest peak in Vietnam
Fansipan, with its 3.143-meter high peak, is called the roof of Indochina. That heavenly light that ever so slightly peaks through the clouds is absolutely breathtaking and the clouds that so gently brush the mountain are stunning. But other than that, this place is a complete tourist trap. From SaPa you can get here by…
Hiking through the beautiful paddy fields of Sa Pa

This area is also…

The climbing here is only for the exceptionally talented because warm-up routes start at 8a and above. You have to hike an uphill trail for 45 minutes, but what a treat you get for your efforts.

Tikal at sunrise
The mist evaporates as the sun rises over La Plaza Central and the jungle of El Petén. Tikal at sunrise is absolutely magical. The only thing missing in this photograph is the sound of the jungle coming to life in the early morning.
