The 2,000-km ride between the Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City through “beaches, temples and rice paddies” would be an unforgettable experience, it said.
The journey from Hanoi heads first for Hue, which has gained fame for “ancient temples and tombs” before stopping at Hoi An, an ancient town lined with “riverside cafés, colonial architecture and a patchwork of rice paddies and sandy beach.”
The cyclists continue by pedaling down to Da Nang and My Son, which is a UNESCO heritage site in the central province of Quang Nam and home to Cham remains, before dropping by Nha Trang’s beaches.
The last stop is Ho Chi Minh City where there’s time to reflect on your achievement, the newspaper said. Readers of leading global travel website TripAdvisor last month ranked Vietnam third in the 10 top adventure destinations around the world.
