THINGS TO SEE IN VIETNAM

Hanoi
Hanoi is a city in transition between the old and the contemporary. Everywhere, there are reminders of its ancient past and traditions, including the French colonial era and this contrasts with the modern buildings and infrastructure necessary to function in todays modern world. Hanoi is in a constant state of flux and defies anyone who tries to box it in! At its heart is the chaotic Old Quarter, where narrow streets are roughly arranged by trade. There are many little temples, plus the Dong Xuan market, selling household goods and street food.
Halong Bay
Halong Bay is one of the gems in Vietnam’s tourism crown. It is some 15,000 sq km in size and contains over 3,000 limestone monolithic islands, each topped with thick jungle vegetation which rise spectacularly from the ocean. Junk boat tours and sea kayak expeditions take visitors past islands named for their shapes, including Stone Dog and Teapot Islands. The region draws scuba divers, rock climbers and hikers, the latter favoring the nearby mountainous Cat Ba National Park.
Ho Chi Minh
Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon, is the face of modern Vietnam, yet the old ways can still be seen on nearly every street. There are skyscrapers and traffic sitting right next to ancient temples and traditional markets. The French colonial influence is everywhere in downtown HCMC including the Post Office and Opera House which stand next to new, classy 5 star hotels and restaurants contrasting with old style street food stalls.
