What should we see in Viet Nam?

QUESTION: We are two women in her thirties who plan to travel to Viet Nam for three weeks. We would like to start in Ho Chi Minh City and end in Hanoi. What are the places along the way, we should definitely visit, do you think? Verona

ANSWER: Ho Chi Minh City is the most modern and most exciting in the country. Take two-three days of sightseeing (make sure that you visit the military museum, and reunion Palace and Jadepagoden). You are going to eat great good there, and there is pressure in the nightlife.
Book a day trip to the nearby Cu Chi and explore the incredible "tunnel city" as the Viet Cong built during the war and who made it possible for them to carry out surprise attacks on American bases. You should also consider travel to Mekong Delta which is an agricultural region where you can visit the River markets and try Vietnam's breakfast by staying at a farm in Vinh Long.

Vietnam's best beaches are located along the Central East Coast and includes Bai Bau and Vung Ro Bay. Further south lies the idyllic Doc Let, beach-resort and party city of Nha Trang and the center of kitesurfing-Mui Né.

Most travelers go to Hoi An, The grandiose homes that belonged to Chinese merchants, the ancient pagodas and the city's location along the River is very nice. There are also excellent restaurants, good beaches and Chamruinerna in My Son. Schedule three days there.
Hue boasts an unbeatable collection of pagodas and palaces, Royal tombs and temples in the imperial city and along the Perfume River. Definitely worth a couple of nights. From Hue, you can go to the Parque Nacional Phong Nha-Ke Bang, where you can visit some of the world's most spectacular cave systems, such as Paradise Cave, and sailing by Phong Nhagrottan.

Then go directly to Hanoi by train or flight and you will enjoy one of the capitals of Asia, which has the most atmosphere. Book yourself in one place in one of the old narrow streets in the old town. Three of the best places to visit in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh mausoleum, the gracious literary Museum and the excellent ethnolinguistic Museum.

If you like to walk, then go to Sapa. In this region you can find spectacular hiking trails through traditional villages and with views of the high mountains.

Finally, you should not miss the Halong Bay, a surreal sea landscape with thousands of vittrade called karstöar in smaragdgrönt water. It is mandatory to go on a cruise overnight, but perhaps you would rather go to Lan Ha Bay, with fewer tourists and not feel just as packed with people.
