Most people think of Vietnam as a war. But the old history has all
gone. Now peace and safety resides. It's opening to the world as a
friendly and exotic place on earth to be.
So why don't you think of coming. I'll name some of the reasons why
you should:
1. It's a new place. It's not touristy like in Thailand and many
places you go, people go stunned by your appearance.
2. It's safe and friendly. The majority of people in Vietnam are
farmers. Pure farmers. Many of them have never learnt of much apart
from the village they were born in. Naturally, they're almost all
friendly safe to be around. Moreover, the communist government does a
good job in ensuring securities all over the country. Nothing of a
crime has happened to tourists anymore for the last a decade.
3. Its has lots to see: A thin country stretching for thousands of Km
from North to South. It has beautiful mountain with colorful hill
tribes. It has highlands with their everlasting rudimentary
traditions. It has beaches and many of those are considered best in
the world but still, they're not touristy. Sound cool enough?
4. It's cheap. If you want to, then 1 dollar could buy you a basic
lunch or dinner. Wandering around and you want to find somewhere to
sit and drink? Mostly you don't have to pay more than one dollar for
it.
5. Is travel here convenient? Sure, many companies operate the open
bus (good quality in general) and they run almost to every capital
cities in the country. Moving around is very easy.

When to travel to Vietnam?
Good time to travel in Vietnam is from September to June. However,
Vietnam has three different regions – the North, the Central and the
South – each with different weather patterns and different rainy
seasons. This means that there is neither a best time nor a worst time
to visit Vietnam. Hot summer or cold winter is not that a big deal.
Beaches such as Halong bay, Hoi an, Nha trang, Mui ne - Phan thiet,
Phu quoc are always available. Sapa and Dalat highland offer great
places for cool temperature. You can find your favourite kind of
weather all year round!
