Peopling every district are the inimitable Vietnamese themselves: kind, good-hearted and gifted with a wicked sense of humor, they\u2019ll happily guide visitors to their favorite haunts. If you want to find out more about this fascinating country before setting off, follow our guide to ten of the most beautiful things to see in Vietnam.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Vietnamese Woman Rowing Boat \u00a9 hadynyah\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

1. Floating Markets of the Mekong Delta<\/h3>\n

A miniature city of boats that doubles as a bustling market, this is no souvenir-ridden tourist trap but an incredible food-hall flotilla. To help potential customers work out who sells what, most vessels ditch the flags and fly an example of their produce instead!<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Chu Chi Tunnel \u00a9 Nikada\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Cu Chi Tunnels<\/h3>\n

Sail along the Saigon River, past abundant paddies and little hamlets, until you come to the Cu Chi tunnels. Built in 1948 so that the Vi\u1ec7t Minh could hide from aerial attacks, they contain entire villages underground that form poignant reminders of Vietnamese tenacity in the hardest of times.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Minh Mang Tomb \u00a9 fototrav\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

3. The Royal Tomb of Minh M\u1ea1ng<\/h3>\n

A giant complex of over 40 palaces, temples and pavilions, the gate to the tomb itself is only opened once a year on the anniversary of the emperor\u2019s death. Howeverthe Honor Courtyard, the bridges spanning Trung Minh Ho (The Lake of Impeccable Clarity) and the Minh Lau Pavilion are all masterpieces in their own rights and certainly worth a day trip.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Nam Chon Bay Hai Van Pass \u00a9 PhongTranVN\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

4. H\u1ea3i V\u00e2n\u00a0Mountain Pass<\/h3>\n

Its name (\u2018Open Cloud Pass\u2019) should give visitors a hint as to just how impressive this stretch of curvy coastline is. Framed by mountains and sea, and famous worldwide since its appearance on BBC\u2019s Top Gear, the road\u2019s incredible beauty still possesses the ability to reduce traffic to a standstill.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Vietnamese Fishing Boats \u00a9 fototrav\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

5. H\u1ed9i An<\/h3>\n

Once a major port, this quaint town contains the sort of architecture that even a capital city would be proud to possess. With characterful temples, historic teahouses and eclectic boutiques, it\u2019s in fact the town\u2019s culinary scene that attracts most visitors; from fragrant C\u01a1m t\u1ea5m s\u01b0\u1eddn n\u01b0\u1edbng (grilled pork chop rice) to b\u00e1nh cu\u1ed1n and b\u00e1nh b\u00e8o (steamed rice cakes and rolls), there\u2019s plenty to sample.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Islands of Ha Long Bay \u00a9 MarcelStrelow\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

6. Tien Ong Cave<\/h3>\n

One of Vietnam\u2019s oldest dwellings, the Tien Ong cave isn\u2019t just hallowed by a great sense of history (objects here have been dated as far back as 10,000 BCE) but also a rather pristine geological allure. Graced by stalagmites and stalactites of all shapes and sizes, the dome, its colors and the cave\u2019s location all serve to make the imagination run wild.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Vietnamese Water Puppets \u00a9 Leontura\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

7. Dao Thuc Village<\/h3>\n

Famous in Vietnam for having preserved one of the country\u2019s oldest art forms, water puppetry, Dao Thuc village isn\u2019t just an important historical landmark; it\u2019s delightfully pretty, too. Scattered with lotus pond theaters, colorful lanterns and artisans at work, it\u2019s a pleasant slice of the old Vietnam.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Huc Bridge in Hanoi \u00a9 PilArt\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

8. Jade Mountain Temple<\/h3>\n

Dedicated to one of the few men in the world who could claim to have defeated the Mongols, General Tr\u1ea7n H\u01b0ng \u0110\u1ea1o, Jade Mountain Temple sits in an oasis of serenity. Even its scarlet connection to the outside world, poetically known as \u2018Sunbeam Bridge\u2019, is gorgeous, taking the visitor over a lake and through an entrance clothed in shrubbery.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

Vietnamese Junk Cruising \u00a9 fototrav\/iStock<\/a><\/p>\n

9. H\u1ea1 Long Bay<\/h3>\n

A seascape of tall islets and rocks that freckle the emerald waters of northeast
\nVietnam, H\u1ea1 Long Bay\u2019s unusual formation gave birth to the myth that its thousands of rocky outcrops must have once been pearls spilt from the mouth of a greedy dragon. Nowadays, people prefer to give its mossy lumps eccentric names like \u2018tea pot\u2019 or \u2018stone dog\u2019, and go scuba diving to depths that teem with aquatic wildlife.<\/p>\n

\"Things<\/a><\/p>\n

10. Hanoi<\/h3>\n

Whether visitors take a stroll down the tree-lined boulevards of the French Quarter or zip around the bustling streets of the Old Quarter, there are plenty of monuments to impress in Vietnam\u2019s capital city. From the temples of the West Lake (oddly, to the north) to the citadel of C\u1ed5 Loa, just outside of the city, there\u2019s a Confucian meets Buddhist charm to even the most commercialized sections of the city.<\/p>\n
