Why Quang Truong Square is special ?
Quang truong square is situated in the center of sapa. It’s in front of the catholic church.The tourists can visit explore about its architecture and walk by night.
This central square is pretty much the Soul of Sa Pa Town…the Catholic Church, the Tourist Center, the Market,, and the Museum are all located around the perimeter of the square. It’s quite a busy spot attracting people who are hanging out at the corners of the square and the streets around the Church.
It was relaxing just to sit down for a few minutes and watch people go by. The local children love to play and socialize with one another in the square. There were many hill tribe women trying to sell their handicraft while other ladies were busy embroidering material and making souvenirs for tourists. The oval shaped square is tiled with beautiful marble stones. A nice place just to rest a while after a tiring trekking day before you go back to your hotel..

The square is a good spot to get your bearings and most of the main streets run by or close to Quang Truong Square so its inevitable. There were proper lightings at night and you can just sit around watching the local children play ball and games while the others would just stroll around.

This square is right in the center of the town and right opposite the Stone Church. It was relaxing just to sit down for a few minutes and watch people go by. The local children love to play and socialize with one another in the square. There were many hill tribe women trying to sell their handicraft while other ladies were busy embroidering material and making souvenirs for tourists. The oval shaped square is tiled with beautiful marble stones. A nice place just to rest a while after a tiring trekking day before you go back to your hotel.
The Saturday night public theatre show starts at 7.30pm along with the night markets running along the street adjacent to the square
