National Geographic has named VietnamÔÇÖs Topas Ecolodge on its list of unique lodges around the world. According to National Geographic, these lodges have unique designs and architecture with creative solutions and wonderful food. They are also located in spectacular areas.

High on a hilltop outside Sapa in north Vietnam, Topas Ecolodge is an incredible mountain hideaway. As one of the longest-running and most philanthropic lodges in the region, Topas Ecolodge has nurtured strong relationships with the local hill tribes and with each passing year the lodge conceives new ways to give back to these communities that are so integral to their operation.

National Geographic previously highlighted the lodge on its list of ÔÇ£21 places to stay if you care about the planetÔÇØ.
