In addition, the Mekong Delta is a whole world bobbing on canals and streams, and Ho Chi Minh City is where the bohos go, don’t miss The Café Apartment, a nine-storey block stuffed with fairy-lit mini-boutiques and craft coffee stores.

Earlier, India.com, an India fastest-growing internet company, has just named Vietnam the number one country that a good choice for solo or family travel will buy you a lifetime of memories without giving a monetary set back.
“Vietnam is known for its white sand beaches, cascading rivers, Buddhist pagodas and bustling cities. Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City have regal French colonial landmarks, Vietnamese War history museums and the Cu Chi tunnel, used for the defence of the country,” India.com wrote.
Vietnam welcomed some 10.4 million foreign visitors in the first eight months of 2018, a 22.8% increase from the same period last year, the General Statistics Office (GSO) has announced.
Arrivals by air, road, and sea in the reviewed period recorded annual increases of 17.3%, 62.1% and 1.6%, respectively while growth was also seen in the numbers of visitors from all five continents.
