The capital city was ranked 94th while the southern metropolis stood 90th in the first edition of Top 100 City Destinations Index 2021 by Euromonitor International.
To compile the index, the firm researched over 110 cities across 86 markets. The cities were measured on six main pillars: tourism performance, economic and business performance, tourism policy and attractiveness, tourism infrastructure, health and safety and sustainability.
Vietnam's two biggest cities got the highest rankings in 'tourism infrastructure’, which assessed city destinations based on lodging, transportation, entertainment, shopping and dining venues.
