Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, is a fascinating blend of East and West. Hanoi retains a lot of original historical vestiges. Ho Chí Minh City (Saigon) is Vietnam's booming commercial center. Hue is the ancient imperial capital of Vietnam and is the home of the still recent Vietnamese kings. Hoi An is a World Heritage site and is renowned for its splendid art shops. Ha long Bay is another UN World Heritage site worth visiting.

The largest holiday of the year is Tet, and is the celebration of the New Year. It is celebrated during the months of January and March, and is mostly a private, family celebration.

Do visit the Hung Temple, the Temple of Literature in Ha Noi, Phong Nha Cave, My Son Sanctuary, and the Citadel at Hue.

Many Vietnamese dishes are flavored with fish sauce. Vietnamese use coriander, mint and basil to accompany almost every dish as it makes the food lighter and more aromatic. Vietnam's national dish is pho which is actually a broth soup with beef or chicken and served with rice noodles. Two very popular and delicious cakes in Vietnam are Banh Chung and Banh Giay. Don't miss out on bia hoi, draft beer which is made on a daily basis.
