The Southeast Asian nation of Vietnam provides a scintillating mix of old and new. Ancient tradition sits alongside foreign influences, creating a country that is unique. Visitors can enjoy Vietnam's varied geography, beautiful towns and villages and the hospitality of its people.
With its awe-inspiring sites, outstanding beauty and historic locations, Vietnam holidays really will give you an unforgettable experience...
This ease of access means that Vietnam is a great place to explore and many backpackers arrive to do just that every year. Traditional palaces, pagodas, tombs and temples decorate the landscape. Evidence of the country's rich French colonial history is reflected in much of the architecture around the nation. The impact of the war with the USA is still apparent throughout Vietnam.
There are many sites worth visiting, such as Phu Quoc Island, the largest island in Vietnam. Inland in the mountains of northwest Vietnam, you will find the traditionally farmed rice fields of the secluded Sapa Valley.
Vietnam's many UNESCO World Heritage Sites are testament to its cultural significance. The charming southern coastal town of Hoi An, famous for its tailor-made clothes, is one example. Don't miss seeing the historic monuments and architecture of Hue, the old capital in central Vietnam. Halong Bay in northern Vietnam is a unique attraction where thousands of limestone islands can be found rising from the ocean. This is a country of exceptional beauty and variety.
