Just yesterday we wrote a post of the massive changes happening in the Vietnam and the ropeway industry. And today it appears that the Fansipan Legend (cable car) finally made its maiden voyage! Despite its remote location, pictures and posts of the cable car are already sprouting up on social media.
After a 2+ year wait, dignitaries and guests were invited to experience what is currently the world’s longest 3S cable car (until the Hòn Thơm–Phú Quốc Ropeway opens) and the world’s highest elevation change for a 3S (1410m).
While some still have concerns over the cable cars impact on the environment, the gondola has undoubtedly opened up natural scenery that was once available only to an exclusive minority. From what was previously an exhausting 2 day hike, visitors of all ages and mobility levels, can now partake in an exciting 15 minute aerial journey to the roof of Indochina.
