## 1 - Fansipan with a height of 3,143m - highest mountains in Vietnam
Fansipan is No.01 in the list of highest Vietnam mountains, also known as the rooftop of Indochina. In the local language, the name of the mountain means "giant tottering stone". Conquering Fansipan is always an extremely meaningful milestone in the conquest of a Vietnamese child. Breaking into much sweat, overcoming dozens of mountaintops, passing more than 20km of forest roads, you will reach the highest peak of Indochina.
Many people choose to go to the top of Fansipan - one of the most famous mountains in Vietnam by cable car across the poetic Muong Hoa valley. They can zoom their eyes downward, embrace the atmosphere and highland scenery. However for those who like to conquer, trekking is still the number 01 choice. The feeling after an arduous journey costing sweat, strength, sometimes you thought as if you couldn’t continue, wanting to give up, but still determined to continue and finally reach the top. This is no longer a simple feeling of conquest, but a feeling of victory over yourself, reaping fruit after so much effort.
