10 best experiences in Vietnam voted by foreign tourists

Vietnam is an attractive and friendly destination to foreign tourists. Vietnam tourism is now growing strongly thanks to famous street food and spectacular scenery. Here are 10 best experiences recommended by foreign tourists for the trip in Vietnam.

Tam Coc

Tam Coc is one of the places appearing in the movie "Kong Skull Island". It is so peaceful and romantic to sit on a small boat floating on the river through the peaceful rice fields and enjoy the sound of water tapping on the sides of the boat.

Hoi An

The beauty of Hoi An goes beyond its nickname - Venice of Vietnam. Every moment in this city draws a brilliant picture of Vietnamese culture. From early morning, when locals start trading until the late afternoon, when tourists come to the river to watch the sunset, or in the evening, when the colorful lanterns make the city more brilliant... Everything seems to be slowly and smoothly.

An Bang Beach

Hoi An is honored by the tranquility and peace of old houses and diversified constructions which creates a picture of architectural development throughout the centuries. However, the old town, and especially An Bang beach, also has its own natural beauty. The nature of tranquility and serenity makes this place a meditation experience, helping visitors to escape the busy lifestyle in the city.

Discover the ethnic traditions in Ha Giang

 

Instead of being in a crowd with tourists in Sapa, you should come to Ha Giang. Nothing beats the thrill of driving along a narrow road and going through breathtaking slopes and valleys. Ha Giang's identity starts from a well-preserved tribal culture, which is fortunately not broken by modern development.

Challenge yourself with a motorbike tour

If you plan to travel to Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City, why not hop on a motorbike and get lost in the rush traffic in the city center. While it may sound risky, driving around the city can enable you to engage in fast-paced local daily life.

Eat Bun cha like Obama

Vietnamese street food has its own typical flavors, from Vietnamese beef noodle (Pho) to Banh Mi (bread), which are popular dishes known by the world. Recently, Bun Cha, which is made from grilled pork on charcoal with rice noodles and special fish sauces, has become famous, because former President Obama once ate them during a visit to Hanoi.

Wandering in Hanoi Old Quarter

With 100 years under French colony, Hanoi's architecture has a different European look, and this can be especially seen in the Old Quarter or French Quarter.

Visit the historic tunnels

If you want to learn more about Vietnamese history, the Cu Chi Tunnels is a place not to be missed. This vast network of underground tunnels is not only considered the hiding point, but also the network for communication, messages transformation, and objects’ storage, as well as even a field hospital for soldiers during the war period.

Visit the Mekong Delta

Take a boat to Cai Rang floating market, where you will find dozens of merchant ships and stilt houses on the banks of the river. Going through the main towns to smaller farm areas, you will find fresh, peaceful and pleasant atmosphere.

Discover the city of eternal spring

Dalat, located in the central highlands of Vietnam, is home to over 1,000 French colonial buildings as well as different coffee plantations. Dalat also has an impressive natural landscape with canyons and picturesque waterfalls.
