Best places to visit in Vietnam

Vietnam will surprise you with all the different sides that it offers to all those lucky enough to step foot there. It's difficult to decide on which sites to visit as the big country has so many unexpected resources but the advice of travellers from Evaneos Travel will help you to determine what you want and to create a trip which is even better than you expected. 

Certainly, Ha Long Bay is the most famous tourist attraction in Vietnam, but the countryside around Phong Nha Ke Bang or even the historic city of Hue are also jewels of Vietnam. 

One thing is certain, the smile of the Vietnamese people will accompany you everywhere you go and the people you meet during your trip will give you a warm welcome. Sharing moments with people of ethnic minorities will remain an unforgettable experience full of authenticity.

If you like dynamic cities, you'll enjoy the capital Hanoi and the modern city of Saigon. Culturally rich, these lively cities will allow you to observe the expansion of the country and to immerse yourself in the history of Vietnam so as to better understand its inhabitants and the transformation now. 

Those who love nature will be overwhelmed... Between the majestic mountains of the North of the country and the several national parks, flora and fauna have the place of honour in Vietnam. By motorbike or by foot, exploring these landscapes untouched by civilisation is a delight. Paddy fields change colour according to the season and are a natural beauty that you can only love to admire. 

If you want to run aground on an island, eat fresh fish and enjoy the calm: the tourist island of Phu Quoc or the wild islands of Cham are worth the journey and offer a change of scene.

Mui Né is a fishing village and small seaside town. The scenery is very varied but the sand dunes give it an air of being in the desert. When I was in Vietnam, it was love at first sight for me.
My Son and its temples will plunge you into the Cham Dynasty's world.
Ha Giang is a stop over town whichis the starting point for an exploration of the north-east of Vietnam.
Bến Tre is both a province and a city on the Mekong Delta, South Vietnam. The island is famous for its coconut orchards and plantations.
The tropical island of Phu Quoc is a little paradise and a great place to recharge your batteries. 
A small town in northern Vietnam, Yen Minh often forms part of the trails followed by the many tourists who travel around the north east of the country. Spectacular landscapes, charming villages and adorable locals - it's a nice place to be!
Dong Van is a town in the mountains of north-eastern Vietnam with exceptional karstic landscapes.
The Red River Delta is vast and a region of contrasts. It is one of the most developed in the country but you can still find some of the best views in Vietnam.
Deep in Ha Giang Province, Pan Hou Village is primarily a place to stop that is very highly rated by hikers.
The Song Chay mountains are ideal if you like trekking and walking off the beaten path.
Bao Lac is a charming small mountain village in the north of Vietnam, right on the Chinese border.
Phat Diem is a little village 30km from Ninh Binh that's famous for its unique religious architecture.
Dai Lanh is a small coastal town situated sixty kilometres north of Nha Trang. It is in my opinion one of the most beautiful beaches in this region of Vietnam.
The name Vu Linh refers to a small village on the shores of Thac Ba Lake in Yên Bai Province.
