The city is one big playground for Instagram savvies as its colorful structures, and charming architecture offer endless snap opportunities,” the magazine noted. Sa Pa
The magazine said that it is famous for its terraced rice fields, a picture-worthy scenery that equals that of Banaue Rice Terraces in the Philippines.

When tourists reach any of the peaks they can enjoy commanding views of the valley, elated to see a piece of heaven on earth. Ninh Binh
Dubbed “Ha Long Bay on Land”, the northern province of Ninh Binh is known for its riverine landscape which is matched with lush mountains that make it an oasis. “A paddleboat tour is a must-try, and one of the attractions tourists will appreciate while afloat is the World Heritage Site of Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex”, the magazine revealed. Da Nang
The port city of Da Nang is home to the white-sand beach of My Khe that complements the neighbouring blue sea, the cerulean sky, and the greenery of Son Tra Mountain. “When hikers observe from a viewing point, the picturesque panorama will inspire them. What makes this coastal city tourist-friendly is its location near three World Heritage Site, including My Son Sanctuary, Hoi An, and the Imperial City of Hue,” it noted. Mui Ne
The Travel said that those who adore beautiful Vietnamese beaches should head to resorts located in Mui Ne, a coastal fishing town in the southcentral province of Bình Thuan, to admire pristine shores of this fishing town and expansive dunes. This tropical destination is all about fun under the sun, with kite- and windsurfers activities ensuring a playful time, while trekkers collect sand between their toes. Tuy Hoa
Situated in the heart of Phu Yen province, Tuy Hoa is always glowing as it is renowned for being the “city of oil lamps and braziers”. “In the daytime, this provincial capital is splashed with sunlight, an enticing prospect for those who want to span the over the six-mile coastline of the Da Rang River,” the magazine said. It added that at nighttime the fun never stops when the oil lamps lighten up the streets and alleys, luring tourists who come to paint the town red. From its pristine shore to the bustling core, the charming Tuy Hoa won’t disappoint tourists of varied tastes. Hue
Hue in the central province Thua Thien-Hue represents a sightseer’s paradise and can serve as a studio for those who are Instagram savvy due to the potential for perfect snaps.

Phan Thiet can be found in the southcentral province of Binh Thuan and is another top beach destination suitable for serene beachcombing and worry-free sightseeing. The magazine revealed that Co Thach is a white-sand beach with plenty of rocks, perfect for those who enjoy rummaging. Meanwhile, those who want to be taken away from the crowds can charter a boat to the charming Cu Lao Cau or Phu Quy islands nearby. “Another must-see destination is the Fairy Stream, a place of stalactites that do not need any fairies to be magical. Indeed, the fun never stops in Phan Thiet,” it noted. Ha Giang
Ha Giang is one of the country’s “Frontier Areas”, meaning those exploring the mountainous province are assured of superb natural wonders. “Lying by the pristine Lo River, its capital city, also named Ha Giang, is a tiny pocket of urbanity in a landscape dominated by ruggedness,” says The Travel.
