This follows a trend of temperatures continuing to fall throughout the country’s northern regions after being impacted by a cold period a few days ago.

The temperature in Lao Cai city at 7 a.m. on December 4 was measured at 16.8 degrees Celsius, with the temperature in Bac Ha mountainous district falling even lower to 11.2 degree Celsius.

Most notably, Sa Pa district recorded a very low temperature of 7.1 degrees Celsius. Indeed, the peak of Fansipan mountain is the coldest place throughout the entire northern region, with temperatures as low as below 0 degrees Celsius, thereby causing frost to form.

This marks the first time that frost has been seen this winter, with the temperature forecast to drop even lower on December 5.

This wonderful natural phenomenon is anticipated to attract tourists to visit Sa Pa district this weekend.
