Into the book
Vietnam is a 2-hour flight from the capital Hanoi, located in the north, to the economic and cultural capital Ho Chi Minh City.
It's a big country, so it takes two days to get around by train or bus.
But when you think of 'Vietnam', the places that come to mind are Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang.
Recently, Nha Trang has been gaining popularity as a family vacation spot, and with the launch of an aggressive advertising campaign by a certain airline, hidden gem tourist destinations throughout Vietnam are starting to attract attention.
So, what are some Vietnamese tourist attractions you should pay attention to?
--- p.24
Dong Xuan Market and the night market, which is open only on weekend nights, are also popular with tourists.
Along the alleyways, you can easily find local restaurants with plastic chairs, French restaurants and cafes with French influence. A culinary adventure where you can taste refreshing rice noodles pho and bun cha with Vietnamese coffee, and enjoy a wonderful fine dining at an authentic French restaurant in the evening is one of the pleasures you should not miss in Hanoi.
--- p.65
The road to Sapa feels like visiting another world on earth.
As you leave the city behind and enter the countryside, winding up steep mountains, the thick fog suddenly disappears and you are greeted by the town of Sapa, a vast lake and colorful villas clustered together.
--- p.111
The most common way to explore Ha Long Bay is to join a one-day boat tour, which takes you from early morning until afternoon to explore the islands, rocks, and limestone caves.
If you'd like to spend a more leisurely time amidst beautiful scenery and a peaceful atmosphere, or simply want to witness the spectacular sunset and sunrise between the rocky islands, consider a two-day, one-night cruise with overnight accommodations on board.
--- p.141
Danang is a resort-centered family vacation spot that has become popular among Koreans through word of mouth, and it is the one that broke the stereotype that 'Vietnam travel = Halong Bay = filial piety tourism' and brought about the 'Vietnam fever'.
Da Nang's beaches are ranked among the world's six best by Forbes magazine, and luxury resorts line the 30-kilometer-long beach.
--- p.228
The Mekong River tour is a tour that takes you around the villages of the Mekong River basin, which has been the home of the indigenous people of this area since ancient times and still plays a large role in the Vietnamese economy, and crosses the jungle(?) on a traditional boat.
In addition, there is a tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels, a site of fierce fighting during the Vietnam War, where Vietnamese soldiers engaged in guerrilla operations and American soldiers sprayed defoliants.
