Vietnam hosts many amazing sights and attractions that can be appreciated when holidaying in this wonderful country. No matter where you are staying you won't be far from some of the highlights. With UNESCO World Heritage Sites, wonderful architecture and a fascinating culture you will find many and varied things to see during your time here.
Here are some of the main sights to see.
Hoi An Old Town
This has now been formally recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, and rightly so too. It is arguably one of the most attractive parts of the country, and a holiday walking in Vietnam will probably bring you to the region on the itinerary. It benefits from being next to the Thu Bon River, further adding to its stunning appearance. The Old Town you see today still has many of the features that were created from the 15th century onwards.
The National Museum of Vietnamese History
You'll find this museum in Hanoi and it is one of the best ways to find out more about the country. Walking in Vietnam will reveal some of its history but you can learn more still by visiting this museum. Every period in the country's long history is delved into here, with impressive displays that will educate you on its past. The building itself is very impressive too, and worth appreciating from the exterior.
Giac Lam Pagoda
This pagoda was built in the mid 1700s and looks just as impressive today as it would have done back then. The pagoda is quite beautiful and has a series of small trees planted into a circular area outside. It is situated in Ho Chi Minh City and is the biggest one of its kind in the entire country. It boasts a large and attractive garden as well as the pagoda itself, and the whole complex is walled in, creating an air of mystery.
Da Lat
One of the most intriguing things about Da Lat, situated towards the south of the country, is that it has an unusual French feel about it. There are several reasons for this, and if you were staying here and you arrived at night and woke up to see it in daylight, you might question where you were. The gorgeous feel of Da Lat is added to by the surrounding landscape of forests and water. Watch out for the radio mast that looks uncannily like the Eiffel Tower!
Walking in Vietnam can certainly take you to some impressive sights. It is one of the best ways to explore many parts of this country so, regardless of where you decide to stay, you can look forward to exploring the history of Vietnam.
