Things to see and do in Vietnam
Vietnam has a special place in my heart. There are definitely more than 10 things to do in Vietnam, closer to 100 but unless you have 4 months, I twiddled the list down to 10.
Vietnam has some of the best food I have eaten, some of the warmest people, and the most amazing natural scenery.
(1) Cruise among thousands of lime-stone islands on Halong Bay.
(2) Enjoy sunbathing and swimming on beautiful beaches of Vietnam (such as Danang, Nha Trang, Nui Ne, etc.).
(3) Explore Hoi An’s ancient streets, which are filled with historic building, tailors and boutiques; and delectable cuisine.
(4) Have a bowl of steaming hot noodle (so-called “pho”) in Hanoi or Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City).
(5) Have a cyclo drive around the Old Quarter of Hanoi.
(6) Head for Dalat – paradise of honeymooners with old French colonial villas, cool weather and romantic setting of lakes and hills.
(7) Relish some fresh fruits at the orchards or floating markets of Mekong River Delta.
(8) Take part in bustling ambiance of traditional Tet holiday (Lunar New Year Festival).
(9) Visit cool mountainous area of Sapa and interact with local ethnic minorities.
(10)Visit Hue’s Imperial City with ancient monuments.
