Eating from one of the hundreds of stalls in any town or city is a major part of the country’s culture. The early morning markets are where the locals start their day, and through lunch until late in the evening, the deliciously steamy aromas fill the air. Try Bun Cha – vermicelli with grilled pork and a dipping sauce, or Goi Cuon – freshly cooked spring rolls.
UNESCO World Heritage Sites
The country boasts no fewer than eight World Heritage Sites, encompassing imperial citadels, temples and mystical landscapes. From the quiet rivers and paddy fields of Ninh Binh to the limestone peaks of Ha Long Bay, and from the atmospheric Hoi An with its ornate pagodas to the architectural wonders and tombs of Hue – Vietnam has much to display.
Boats and Bikes
Vietnam invites you to explore in a multitude of ways. Wind along the riverways on a sampan (the typical rowing boat); cruise Ha Long Bay in a junk, or shoot down a river on a bamboo raft. Travel like a local and take to a bike, going at your own pace – there’s no end of places you can reach.
Cities
Delve deep into the old quarter of Hanoi – the thousand year old capital, with its narrow streets and ancient houses. Wander the shores of the lakes and enjoy the peace of seemingly infinite Buddhist temples – and don’t miss having a coffee on Train Street. In Ho Chi Minh, you’ll find the vibe almost dizzying. This cosmopolitan metropolis is dripping in culture and well worth exploring.
Beaches
Along its coastline of over 2000 miles, Vietnam has no shortage of idyllic coves and beaches. The archipelago of Con Dao is renowned for its marine life and the beautiful Dat Doc beach. Ha Long Bay is home to some stunning stretches of sand – the further you explore, the more remote they are. Whilst Phu Quoc, in the Bay of Thailand is fringed with tropical rainforest.
