My suggestion

Spend some time bathing at "Thuan An", less than 15 km from Hué, where there is a heavenly beach: white sand, turquoise sea, deckchairs, seafood – it's somewhere not to miss!

Huế is an historical town in central Vietnam that was once the royal seat of the Nguyen Dynasty.

My suggestion

Take a boat trip to visit the imperial tombs. It's a bit touristy but a lovely ride, nonetheless. The scenery along the river is superb; look out for the stunning 20 metre high Thien Mu Pagoda!

Fall under the spell of Hoi An and the surrounding area

Hoi Aan is one of the most tourist-focused cities in Vietnam, and with good reason because, in addition to its listing as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the city has everything to attract tourists: charming restaurants and narrow streets, exceptional local cuisine, and idyllic beaches. Hoi An will also charm lovers of ancient ruins, who will enjoy discovering the remains of the Cham city of My Son.

Sapa and its surroundings

The town of Sapa is located at the summit of a hill, at 1,600 metres of altitude. It is surrounded by beautiful scenery and sits above the Muong Hoa valley, where it is dominated by the famous Fansipan at 3,143 metres. An obligatory stopover during your tour of Vietnam.

I'd like to give an insight into Hué, a tourist town that was once an imperial city and is famous throughout the country for its food! But what tourists often don't realise is that there are numerous wonderful sites just a few kilometres from this town that are seldom visited but are nonetheless authentic and magnificent
