Vietnam, simply beautiful!

We just returned from a short trip to central and southern Vietnam. What a beautiful country with a rich history, friendly people and flavour filled cuisine! The southern half of the country it is an easy to travel destination. The best period to visit is this time of the year (i.e. March). In Saigon and the Mekong delta the monsoon season starts as of the end of April. But we were told that the heavy rains are sporadic throughout the days and the sun is still present. In Hoi An the summer starts now with the dry season until end of August. 
 

We managed to visit Hue with the royal tombs, the romantic Hoi An full with colourful lanterns, the pleasant Saigon with old colonial buildings and the sleepy Mekong delta with its many canals.
 
Go to Vietnam to enjoy the amazing nature and the rich history of the country! Go to Vietnam to enjoy the delicious food, the quality coffee (second biggest producer after Brazil) and the healthy green tea with lotus infusion. Go to Vietnam to chat to people who are quite curious but in a friendly manner.  Go to Vietnam to buy a scarf made  out of silk! Go to Vietnam to have your suit, shoes and bags tailor-made (designed by you) in Hoi An at very competitive prices! Just go to Vietnam to enjoy some great holidays!
