Visitors go in droves to Yen Bai to see ‘Crystal cloud’A large number of people trekked to the remote rice terraces of the northern province of Yen Bai to see an installation in the form of a "crystal cloud" created from 58,000 shimmering beads. The exhibition is the first of its kind in Vietnam and the second in the world after the Crystal Cloud installation created by artists Andy Cao and Xavier Perrot at Swarovski Crystal World in Austria. The Crystal Cloud is made of hand-sculpted galvanised wire mesh and adorned with 58,000Crystal Cloud – La Pán Tẩn 2018, a landscape art exhibition, opened on Mâm Xôi Hill in Mu Cang Chai district, Yen Bai province, on May 19 as part of activities to mark the 128th Swarovski crystals. The cloud formation is supported by a series of randomly placed galvanised steel posts and bamboos resembling a shimmering crystal forest. I can’t believe that so many people know about it, especially when the crystal clouds are exhibited here.
