I went on a trip through Vietnam late last year, and I don't kno which place to pick as my favirote part. So, here's a short list of places, and my favorite thing aboutthe place:
Ha Noi - Huan Kiem Lake, water puppet show, all the historic places, the food and the people
Ha Long Bay - The most beautiful place that I've ever been in the world, the food and the people.
Hue - The Emperor Temples, The boat ride on the perfume river with beautiful women wearing ao dai's singing Vietnamese folk songs, the food and the people.
Ha Hau Beach - A desolate beach near Thai Binh along the Tonikan Bay. Incredibly beautiful and picturesque, where I fell in love with my fiance', the food and the people.
Saigon - Much more modern than I expected it to be, lots of things to do and lots of things to buy, the food and the people.
The rest of the country - Breathtakingly beautiful, lots of culture and history, the food and the people.
