The Sa Pa Dao season usually lasts from mid-March to the end of May, so April is the best time to dig. Everywhere in Sapa, you can see the indigenous people selling fresh, crunchy peaches.

The ripe Sa Pa peaches are delicious and fresh
On both sides of the roads leading to Sapa town center, there are many peach gardens in the harvest. Especially the road part of National Highway 4D from Trung Chai commune to Sapa town. In addition, from the Sapa market going straight Dien Bien Phu Street to O Quy Ho Pass, you will also see many people selling along the way. You can choose and contact the garden owner to pick and enjoy at the garden.

The branches of peaches are wrong
In addition, to avoid not buying the wrong Chinese Dao, Lao Cai Tourism will guide you to recognize Dao Sa Pa and Chinese Dao.
