What Are Some Places In Vietnam That A New Zealand Citizen Can Visit?

The natural beauty and cultural variety of Vietnam are astoundingly diverse.

The country of Vietnam has a long history and a multicultural population that includes more than 50 ethnic minority groups, which makes travel there rich in cultural heritage. The landscape ranges from jagged mountains seen from twisty peaks continues down to verdant rice fields colored every shade of green in the palette. Here are some of the top places in Vietnam that a tourist can visit:

Halong Bay

Halong Bay's karst seascape is one of the top sites in the world to visit for breathtaking sea views and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This harbor in the Gulf of Tonkin contains thousands of limestone islets that have been worn over millennia by wind and water into sharp pinnacles.

This is an ideal cruising region because a boat is the finest way to view the bay's splendor. To truly see Halong Bay's famous sights, choose at least one overnight vacation because a day trip falls short.

Hang Sung Sot

The Hang Sung Sot, which has three enormous caverns, and the Hang Dao Go, which has incredibly bizarre stalactites and stalagmites, are only two of the many caves in the bay that may be accessed. 

However, for the majority of travelers, the pleasure is simply driving through the karsts and taking in the ever-changing view of the pinnacles as you go.

For those who enjoy big cities, no trip to Vietnam would be complete without stopping at Ho Chi Minh City, the bustling economic center of the nation.

The restaurant and café scene is tremendously diverse, the streets are insanely congested with motorbikes and cars, and the shopping is among the greatest in the nation.

The majority of the city's attractions are concentrated in Dong Khoi, the district's central area, which is compact and simple to navigate.

The impressive Notre Dame Cathedral, constructed in the late 19th century, can be found here, along with the HCMC Museum, which houses an excellent collection of artifacts that tell the history of the city.

The city's best remaining examples of French colonial architecture can be found in the surrounding historic area of Da Kao. You may also visit the Jade Emperor Pagoda there to see its stunning collection of Buddhist and Taoist religious iconography.

After that, history buffs should visit the History Museum to see the abundance of artifacts on show from different archaeological sites.

The two must-see tourist sights for many visitors are located along Nguyen Thi Minh Khai Street, just a little bit outside the city center. The president of South Vietnam resided in the Reunification Palace, which was formerly known as Independence Palace. It is most known as the location where North Vietnamese tanks came to a stop on April 30, 1975, thereby ending the conflict.

The furnishings from the 1960s are still in place, making it an absolutely fascinating location to visit.

The War Remnants Museum is close by, and despite being blatantly biased, it paints a disturbing picture of the brutality of war and the numerous atrocities committed by US Forces during their campaign in Vietnam.

Hue

Hue, one of Vietnam's most ancient cities, is stuffed to the gills with artifacts from the time of the Nguyen emperors in the 19th century. The Imperial Enclosure is a vast area enclosed by walls that extend for 2.5 kilometers, sitting along the banks of the lovely Perfume River.

Visit the stunning Ngo Mon Gate, the Thai Hoa Palace with its exquisitely lacquered interior details, the Dien Tho Residence, where the Queen Mothers would reside, and the Halls of Mandarins with their intact ceiling murals while strolling through the grounds.

Outside the walls of the Imperial Enclosure are a bewildering array of historical sites.

Taking a riverboat tour on the Perfume River is one of the greatest ways to see a number of distant locations. You can visit numerous royal tombs and a few pagodas on a day sail.

The Thien Mu Pagoda, with its tower that climbs 21 meters high, is the most significant pagoda in the neighborhood and the greatest tomb to see if you're short on time is the Tomb of Tu Doc.
