1. Explore the Bustling Streets of Hanoi

Vietnam’s capital, Hanoi, is a mesmerizing blend of ancient traditions and modern influences. Start your journey by exploring the Old Quarter, where narrow streets are filled with local markets, street food vendors, and historic temples. Don’t forget to visit the Hoan Kiem Lake and Ngoc Son Temple, which are beautifully illuminated at night, creating a romantic atmosphere for an evening stroll.

3. Get Lost in the Ancient Town of Hoi An

Hoi An, with its well-preserved architecture and lantern-lit streets, transports you back in time.

Explore its markets, dine on exquisite Vietnamese cuisine, and be sure to visit the historic Japanese Covered Bridge.

4. Immerse Yourself in the Cu Chi Tunnels

Venture into the historic Cu Chi Tunnels near Ho Chi Minh City (formerly known as Saigon). These underground tunnels served as a strategic base during the Vietnam War and offer a glimpse into the country’s wartime history. You can even crawl through a section of the tunnels to experience the cramped conditions faced by soldiers.
