Hoar frost covered Fansipan Mountain, the nation’s highest peak, on December 6 as temperatures dropped to as low as zero degrees Celsius.

According to Lao Cai Province Hydro-Meteorological Station, the recent cold spell has been caused by high-level radiation occurring in the daytime, coupled with a huge drop in temperature at night, thereby leading to the formation of the hoar frost.

The phenomenon started on the night of December 5 and is anticipated to end on December 7.

Visitors have the chance to fully admire the beauty of the snowy scene as the Fansipan cable cars opens up after long time of not running due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
