Vietnam Travel - Accommodation, Attractions, Information 
Most visitors to Vietnam are overwhelmed by the sublime
beauty of the country's natural setting: the Red River Delta in the north,
the Mekong Delta in the south and almost the entire coastal strip are a
patchwork of brilliant green rice paddies tended by women in conical hats.
There are some
divine beaches along the coast, while inland there are soaring mountains,
some of which are cloaked by dense, misty forests. Vietnam also offers an
opportunity to see a country of traditional charm and rare beauty rapidly
opening up to the outside world.

Chi Minh City (Saigon) - While Hanoi is considered the center of arts
and culture, Ho Chi Minh City or Saigon is the commercial hub of Vietnam
and, certainly its most bustling city. The place springs to life early in
the morning with the hustle and bustle of the local markets and incessant
honks from all manner of vehicles. But if you really want to get to know
Saigon, visit Ben Thanh Market, the oldest and largest market in Saigon. It
is famous for its fresh flowers but you can find almost anything here.

| Despite its ongoing economic
liberalization and the pressures of rapid development, this dignified
country has managed to preserve its rich civilization and highly cultured
society.
It has discarded its post-war fatigues and the boom in budget travelling,
coupled with the softening of government control, have enabled more
contemporary and relevant portraits of the country to gain currency in the
West.
The country has three distinct areas: north, central,
and south. The north is known for its alpine peaks, the Red River Delta, the
plains of Cao Bang and Vinh Yen, enchanting Halong Bay, and historic Hanoi.
Central Vietnam is characterized by high temperate plateaus rich in volcanic
soil and by spectacular beaches, dunes, and lagoons. It is also the location
of the ancient imperial city of Hue. In the South, visitors encounter modern
life in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) and the fertile delta of the
Mekong River. In addition, Vietnam has a large continental shelf and an
archipelago of islands. more.... |
