Vietnam is in a tropic region, and most Vietnamese have never seen snow in their lives. However, some have because it does snow in Vietnam from time to time.
Sapa is a ancient Hmong village close to Fansipan, which is the highest elevation of Vietnam (3,143 m or 10,312 ft). That region is cooler than the rest of Vietnam because of the higher elevation and being more inland than most of Vietnam. Snow is occasionally received there, but infrequently. Very cool fog-like weather is more common.

I have a friend who is Hmong. The Hmong are Vietnamese mountain people. When he came to America, he got off the plane while it was snowing and thought "What the hell is this stuff?" So no, at the very least, there was no snow during his lifetime, even in the mountains.
