Locations To Visit In Vietnam

Locations To Visit In Vietnam

by Jose Maurette Garces


Explore Hanoi

The first stop is the chaotic capital city, Hanoi. Spend some time in this wonderful cultural hub and you will soon learn what makes in one of the best tourist attractions in Vietnam. Stop off at the Old District or wander down to the Perfume Pagoda, which is a must-see for every tourist. Ha Long Bay and Sapa are nearby and are sure to tickle your fancy.

Northeast Vietnam

Take a trip off the beaten track and visit regions like Cao Bang and Ha Giang. Most tourists never see these places. The average trip, taken on four wheeled vehicles, lasts about five days. To explore even wilder areas, add a couple of days to your journey.

Hue

Hue is south of Hanoi, and is an ancient Vietnamese capital. You will want a few days to have a look around and visit some of the breath-taking temples in the area.

Shop in Hoi An

This city is very beautiful. You are sure to love wandering its pretty streets, or visiting the beach. It is also a great place to buy tailor-made clothes.

Submerge yourself in Nha Trang

This large town has a number of excellent beaches. They are great for scuba diving, so you might want to stay four or five days to get the most out of your visit. If you don't like scuba diving then a couple of days should be all you need to have a look around.

Welcome to Saigon!

Also known as Ho Chi Minh, this is the business center of Vietnam. If you thought Hanoi was loud and chaotic, this place is even more so! Like Hanoi, it has plenty to offer.

Drift along with the Mekong Delta

The Mekong Delta will prove to be a unique experience as you drift along. Take a look at the floating markets as you go.

Phu Quoc Island

The island of Phu Quoc, which exists a little way south of Cambodia, is a tropical paradise. Crystal clear waters and endless beaches have not been spoiled by the rise in commercialism in the area.
