Vietnam’s turbulent history notwithstanding, it has bounced back to become a major destination in Southeast Asia and also among the safest countries to live in. Vietnam has plenty to offer; from blazing green paddy fields, pristine white beaches, bustling cities, sleepy fishing villages, coastal, historical towns, limestone islands looming out of the sea, dizzying street life, tribal hill villages and friendly communities to age-old customs, Vietnam satisfies the curiosity of a modern traveller and also the warmth he seeks on his journey.
Those wanting their dose of thrills, can take up motorbiking up the jaw-droppingly stunning Hai Van Pass in central Vietnam. There are several other hiking and motorbiking routes across Sa Pa in northern Vietnam. For some kite-surfing, the tropical paradise off Mui Ne is a great idea. Once you are done with your share of hikes up evergreen hills and sleepy homesteads, you can head into one of its cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City for a relaxing therapy; you will find several incredible ones offered by family-run salons offering backpacker-friendly prices.
Enjoy and make memories
