Just eight kilometers from the northern mountainous town of Sa Pa lies a breathtaking sight: rows of cherry blossoms intertwined with the neatly planted O Long tea hills. During the blooming season, this picturesque landscape captivates tourists and photographers alike.
The tea plants are arranged in orderly rows that wind gracefully along the hillsides, forming a majestic yet poetic natural canvas. From November to January, winter brings the cherry blossoms to life, their delicate pink blooms complementing the vibrant green of the tea plants to create a scene straight out of a fairy tale.
