History
Sapa became a hill-station under the French in the early 20th century; the area has long been home to Hmong, Tay and Dzay ethnic groups who engineered the terraces.
Conservation
Terrace farming is vulnerable to erosion; support local community businesses and stick to trails to reduce impact on fragile slopes.
