There are stunning landscapes too, and the hill tribe settled mountains around Sapa as well as beaches, charming colonial towns and the beguiling villages of the Mekong Delta and lush national parks.
The attractions in Vietnam are plentiful, with untouched islets and quaint villages to war museums and an impressive 19th Century royal citadel, surrounded by a moat and with thick stone walls in the old imperial capital of Hué. The Ngu Binh Mountain (known as the Royal Screen) and the Perfume River which runs through the city, give this unique feudal capital an entire setting of great natural beauty as well as defining its symbolic importance.
