Vietnam is one of the most delightful places in Southeast Asia. Vietnam has always inspired travelers because of its beautiful landscapes, evocative history, century-deep culture and warm-hearted, hospitable, intelligent people.
Vietnam is a nation with thousand years of history. Vestiges of the historic period of the Hung Kinh have revealed that Vietnam is one of the oldest countries in Southeast Asia.
Vietnam traditions and customs make deeply impression on people from all over the world, ao dai is one of them. When Vietnamese girls wear “áo dài “, they become more beautiful and graceful than ever. The Vietnamese are proud of “ao dai” because of its history, beauty, the significance of the attire upon Vietnamese women and all things that it shows for pure beauty.
Come to Vietnam, you can enjoy variety of scrumptious food and drink. We can not mention to traditional Vietnamese food without referring to Pho ( rice noodle soup). Only in cold days, having a hot and sweet smelling bowl of Pho to enjoy would make you experience the complete flavor of the special dish of Vietnam.
There are also many fantastic landscapes in Vietnam as Ha long Bay which has twice been recognized by UNESCO as a World Natural Heritage Area for its exceptional scenic beauty and outstanding geological and geomorphic values or beaches in Nha Trang where organized the Miss World contest and many ideal destinations in Ninh Binh, Hoi An, Da Nang … for tourists soak up nature and culture of this country.
