SON LA
OVERVIEW |
| Set at the halfway point between Hanoi and Dien Bien Phu, the sleepy provincial capital of Son La was once the site of a sizeable French garrison during the French war, but today, aside from the ruins of the prison, the only evidence the French ever made it here is the baguettes and rich strong coffee.
A mid-sized town, Son La is split in two by a small lake with a weir and contains all the typical facilities you'd expect to find in a town of this size. On one side of the lake sits the bus station, bank and a few hotels and on the other are the post office, fire station and a few more hotels.
For a town of little note, really the only point of interest here is the ruins of the French prison, so most visitors spend just the one night here before continuing on towards Dien Bien Phu or Hanoi.
