Vietnam's Top 5 Destinations

The majority of visitors are drawn to Vietnam by its amazing natural beauty, which ranges from the green farms in the north to the exciting activity of the Mekong Delta in the south. However, Vietnam is a nation with a rich history and ages-old customs.
This country provides tourists with a wide selection of activities thanks to its Buddhist temples, tranquil hill villages, and enormous caves. See our list of the top tourist destinations in Vietnam for suggestions on where to go.

1. Halong Bay

Halong Bay's karst seascape is one of the top sites in the world to visit for breath-taking sea views and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This region in the Gulf of Tonkin contains thousands of limestone islands that have been worn over millennia by wind and water into sharp pinnacles.

This is ideal cruising region because a boat is the finest way to view the bay's scenery. To truly see Halong Bay's famous sights, choose at least one overnight vacation because a day trip falls short.

The Hang Sung Sot, which has three enormous caverns, and the Hang Dao Go, which has extremely strange stalactites and stalagmites, are only two of the many caves in the bay that may be accessed. However, for the majority of travelers, the pleasure is simply driving through the karsts and taking in the ever-changing view of the pinnacles as you go.

2. Hue 

Hue, one of Vietnam's most ancient cities, is stuffed to the gills with artifacts from the time of the Nguyen emperors in the 19th century.

The Imperial Enclosure is a vast area enclosed by walls that extend for 2.5 kilometers, sitting along the banks of the lovely Perfume River.

Visit the stunning Ngo Mon Gate, the Thai Hoa Palace with its exquisitely lacquered interior details, the Dien Tho Residence, where the Queen Mothers would reside, and the Halls of Mandarins with their intact ceiling murals while strolling through the grounds.

Outside the walls of the Imperial Enclosure are a bewildering array of historical sites.

Taking a riverboat tour on the Perfume River is one of the greatest ways to see a number of distant locations. You can visit numerous royal tombs and a few pagodas on a day sail.

The Thien Mu Pagoda, with its tower that climbs for 21 meters high, is the most significant pagoda in the neighborhood and the greatest tomb to see if you're short on time is the Tomb of Tu Doc.


3. Phong Nha Ke Bang National Park

The World Heritage-listed Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park is one of the best sites to go caving in Vietnam. It is a stunning karst mountain formation honeycombed with enormous caves that are home to excellent stalactite and stalagmite displays.

The Paradise Cave, which extends a remarkable 31 kilometers below ground, is the park's most visited location.

Here, the vast tunnels are simply amazing. Being a "wet cave," Tu Lan Cave requires visitors to swim through the river that runs through the cave system.

The second most well-liked excursion is to the Phong Nha Caves, where a boat is used to explore the interior.

4. My Son

My Son is a 4th century ruin of a Cham era temple city, surrounded by mountains covered in beautiful rainforest.

From the seventh through the tenth centuries, this ancient Hindu temple was still actively being used; it was only in the thirteenth century that it completely declined and was abandoned.

Approximately 20 temple buildings still exist here; they are all made of brick or sandstone blocks and interestingly display influences from many Asian dynasties, including Indian and Malay.

Notably, Group A originally had the most significant structure at the site, but US soldiers purposefully demolished it during the Vietnam War, leaving Group B with the oldest temples.

There is a good museum there that has a lot of information about the Cham.

5. Hoi An ancient town

Hoi An, a charming city in Vietnam, has the greatest preserved traditional architecture overall.

When Hoi An was a significant meeting place for Japanese and Chinese merchants who came for the local silks in the 15th century, the old town area was a delight to visit since it was crammed full of well-preserved merchant buildings.

You can get a sense of these times because many of the ancient merchant houses have been made accessible to the public. The best has to be Tan Ky House from the 17th century, which has remarkable architectural and ornamental features.

The charming Japanese Bridge, which is located at the western end of Tran Phu Street, serves as the main symbol of Hoi An. Close by, the Main Hall of the Fujian Chinese Congregation is the most magnificently designed temple in the old town.

Although the town is full of little pagodas and museums, the best way to experience Hoi An's appeal is to walk through the narrow streets of the old quarter and take in its beautifully preserved facades.

Charges at several popular tourist destinations run from $1 to $4. However, in other places, it's usually just a few thousand dong.
