2025 Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

| I captured the bountiful Vietnam in 9 photos. This series was taken in early September 2024, during my week-long stay in Vietnam, traveling from Vui Tinh in the south to Hanoi in the north, covering almost the entire country. To catch the morning fish market in the central coast from a small southwestern border town, I even went without sleep for over 20 hours... After nearly 10 days of early starts and late returns, I came away with this series "Bountiful Vietnam." - 1️⃣&2️⃣ Morning market in Vui Nam 3️⃣ Fish market by the sea in Quang Nam Province 4️⃣ Farmer harvesting water lilies in Long An Province (staged) 5️⃣ Fish drying factory in Phan Thiet 6️⃣ Elderly villager weaving fishing tools in Hung Yen (staged) 7️⃣ Incense drying factory in Hanoi (staged) 8️⃣ Fish sauce factory in Phan Thiet 9️⃣ Soy sauce factory in Hanoi (staged) - Vietnam truly deserves to be called the pinnacle of human aerial photography, with numerous photogenic agricultural, fishing, and handicraft activities across the country. Because so many photographers capture these subjects, and many win awards with these themes, it has led to many staged scenes (as I've noted in parentheses). Local farmers clearly understand what photographers want to capture, performing standard actions with practiced fluidity... If you plan to photograph there, consider how to design new approaches to create fresh perspectives. - I took many photos at each of these locations and will write detailed notes about them in future posts ✌🏻~

My Son Sanctuary, a World Heritage Site in central Vietnam, is a fascinating place with a mysterious atmosphere. #vietnam #danang #hoian #myson_sanctuary

Lanh Bich Hoa Tam Thanh - Vietnam: This is a small fisherman village near Hoi An. There are some art pieces painting on walls for tourists to explore. This village is good for instagramable. There were only few tourists when I visit as this is not so famous yet.

Camping on Ban Than rock reef to welcome the sunrise In mid-May, Kim Phuong and her friends camped at Ban Than rock reef (Tam Hai commune, Quang Nam) - a pristine destination with strangely shaped jet-black cliffs, a relic of an ancient seabed over 400 million years old. The group traveled by motorbike, took a ferry to the island, and set up camp on flat ground near the trail. The reef is 2 km long, 40 m high, with clear blue water and moss-covered rocks - ideal for taking photos and exploring. However, the terrain is slippery, so be careful when moving. In the afternoon, the group experienced snorkeling to see corals and strolling around Thuan An fishing village. The evening was simple with the sound of waves and the lights of boats offshore. Early in the morning, they welcomed the brilliant sunrise, the sea surface sparkling with gold - a peaceful, relaxing moment. Tam Hai tourism is still spontaneous, the people are friendly and ready to support tourists. #ghiendulich

They were later incorporated into the local administrative system and named "Ming Xiangshe" (Minh-Huong-Xa), which means "maintaining the incense of the Ming Dynasty". It is a special Chinese autonomous grassroots organization with the consciousness of "anti-Qing and restoration of Ming". Address: 14 Trần Phú, Cẩm Châu, Hội An, Quảng Nam, Vietnam #VietnamTravel #Hoi An

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 The restaurant is one of the well-known local restaurants. It is located next to the Thu Bôn River and has the best viewing position, so it is very popular. But because it is so popular, the seats are often full and you can only find a seat by avoiding meal times. The food here includes Hoi An’s characteristic high-rise noodles, which are presented in an exquisite manner; the desserts are made with shredded coconut, with a golden base and shredded coconut fillings that exude a coconut aroma and are extremely delicious. Address: 110 Nguyễn Thái Học, Phường Minh An, Hội An, Quảng Nam, Vietnam #VietnamTravel #Hoi An

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent The fried sea bass I had in Hoi An Quang Nam was really delicious! The crispy batter and the chili sauce were superb, spicy and savory. The fried sea bass went perfectly with the soft flesh that is unique to sea bass. The tangy taste of the chili sauce went well with the deep flavor, really whetting my appetite. This is a restaurant I really recommend to people who love seafood!

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent I was really impressed by the seafood tempura restaurant I visited in Quang Nam near Hoi An! The crispy fried shrimp and squid were crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. In particular, the freshness unique to seafood was preserved, so it melted in my mouth. It was even more delicious because I could enjoy it with various sauces. Maybe because it is a place that locals often visit, the taste and quality were both the best. This is a restaurant I highly recommend to those who like seafood tempura!

The beautiful scenery makes people's hearts flutter when immersed in the strangely peaceful nature🎂🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

#getgoing2025 My stay at Resort Hoi An was nothing short of exceptional. The resort’s beautiful blend of modern luxury and traditional charm creates an enchanting atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated, offering stunning views of either the lush gardens or the sparkling sea. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, making sure every need was met with a smile. The on-site dining options provided a delightful range of dishes, and the resort’s amenities, including the pool and spa, were top-notch. Located just a short distance from Hoi An’s charming ancient town, it’s the perfect place to unwind while still being close to local attractions. I highly recommend Vinpearl Resort Hoi An for anyone looking for a serene getaway with excellent service.

# Sign up for hotel trial sleepers in December Quang Nam Province in Vietnam is a place full of beautiful landscapes and rich cultural history.

Stepping into Hoi An Ancient Town feels like you are transported back in time. The narrow alleys, wooden doors and windows and colorful lanterns here create a unique charm, especially at night, when the colorful lanterns decorate the ancient city like a dream. While strolling through the streets of the ancient city, a must-visit is Nipponbashi, a historic wooden bridge that symbolizes the trade exchanges between Asian countries in those days. In addition, Hoi An’s old houses, such as the Cantonese Huay Kuan and the Hokkien Huay Kuan, showcase the architectural style of central Vietnam and the history of the overseas Chinese community in the 17th to 18th centuries.

The local markets are also a great place to explore, where you can buy fresh ingredients and authentic spices and get a feel for local daily life. Depart Hoi An and head to the sacred site of My Son, one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. My Son is the religious and cultural center of the ancient Champa Kingdom in Vietnam. Dozens of ancient pagodas and temples are preserved in the ruins. These buildings incorporate Hindu artistic styles and are precious materials for studying ancient Cham culture.

Guangnan, this poetic land, awaits the arrival of every explorer.

If you have the opportunity to go to Hoi An, take a day off to visit the seven-acre coconut forest! Take a basket boat ride and watch the boatmen “perform” boat spinning tricks underwater!!! I say, it’s both pleasing to the eye and exciting, but also a bit worrying that they might fall into the water 😅😅 In addition to the interesting flora, listening to the boatmen tell stories is also very interesting! #awesomepic

The My Son sanctuary is a must on your visit list in case you nearby Hoi An. The oldest temple from the Cham are from the 4th century. Almost all temples are damaged or destroyed because of the last war. The temples placed in valley on 300 m level. Temperatures and humidity are high.

## Go to Hoi An to taste the best white rose Hoi An famous snack is the first white rose, leaving the Hoi An can not eat white roses, so if you go to Hoi An Friends must eat enough, white roses taste fresh, not too tired to eat every day, and can eat two or three dishes at a time. However, there is only one shop in Hoi An White Rose. This shop offers the white rose of the All-Hui An, and its name is called White Rose. There are 3,000 white roses to be done here, and then sent to the whole snack bar selling white roses in Hoi An. White Rose can be eaten in the store, or it can be taken away. There are always employees who are making white roses in the store. If you are interested, you can try to make a white rose yourself. I tried it. It was really difficult. The skin of the white rose was very thin and could not be broken. If it was broken, it would be abolished. And white roses are made by women. In addition to the white rose in the "white rose", there is also the second snack of Hoi An - fried oysters, which tastes better than the fried oysters in other stores, and is also big. There are also steamed dumplings sold, usually a dish of white roses will be accompanied by two steamed dumplings. "White Rose" is near the new coffee office, and there is a long distance from the ancient city of Hoi An.

Vietnam is one of the countries closest to China. It is deeply influenced by the Chinese civilization. Chinese characters have been the common language of the country for a long time. After the invention of the mutter, it gradually replaced the Chinese characters. There are many cities in Vietnam, but the most mixed style of architecture must be Hoi An. Hui'an is located in the central part of Viet Nam and belongs to the jurisdiction of Guangnan Province. From the 5th century to the 17th century, it has been a prosperous port city, and its business commerce has been at the forefront of Southeast Asian port cities. Walking on the streets of Hoi An, you will see a variety of Chinese clubs and Chinese temples inadvertently. The more famous ones are the five gangs, the Guangzhao Hall, the Chaozhou Hall, and the Qiongfu Hall. These halls are equivalent to the fellowships. In the past, it played a role of unity and cooperation, and its architectural style is completely Chinese. On the streets of Hoi An, you can also see a lot of antique Chinese courtyards. Chinese is the protagonist of these courtyards. Some couplets have the illusion of being in China. In addition to Chinese-style houses, Hoi An is the most common yellow house. Its appearance is simple yet elegant, and the style absorbs the essence of French, Vietnamese and Chinese architecture. The yellow building is located in the streets of Hoi An, and Hoi An has become a veritable "yellow city". The yellow style was not the architectural style of Hoi An in ancient times. The reason why it has become so foreign is that France has colonized Vietnam for more than 80 years. In these eighty years, French life and French aesthetics have infiltrated and assimilated the Vietnamese.

Meishan is about 40 kilometers from Hoi An, tickets are 100

Hoi An is a small town near Vietnam's South China Sea. As early as the 17th century, it became the most important business in Southeast Asia with Malacca; it was also the earliest Huaying in Vietnam. Here, the Chinese civilization and Southeast Asia are in harmony, making people feel familiar and unfamiliar everywhere. This kind of unique style constitutes the unique charm of Hoi An. Today's streets, temples, and monuments have a strong Chinese color, and Chinese characters are everywhere. Combining many ancient buildings that have been preserved intact, Hoi An's street layout and architectural style not only show the simplicity and elegance of Chinese and Japanese architecture, but also integrate the natural aesthetics and life of local people.

Meishan Holy Land is located in Meishan Village, Weifu Township, Weichuan County, Guangnan Province, Vietnam, 60 kilometers southwest of Da Nang City. This is the only architectural art group that reflects the formation and development of the art of the clan. To the local day tour group of the Meishan Ruins, each person is 7 dollars, if you do not take the boat, it seems to be 4 dollars. 7 dollars is included in the boat and lunch, and the boat will stay in a small town for more than half an hour. The tour fare is free of tickets, so tickets must be purchased by yourself. Reporting the words, the driver will pick up the hotel and then go to the destination. Our group is almost all foreigners except me and my friends. is called Angkor Wat in Vietnam. In fact, the area is very small. From the 3rd century to the 12th century, it has been the center of the clan kingdom. Tickets: 150K Vietnamese Dong

In addition to the ancient town, Hoi An also has beaches and rivers. Riding along the small river all the way to the beach, there will be many people passing by, there are no tourists, only leisurely and beautiful scenery. It is a very happy thing to recommend a family or a couple to go here and waste time with someone you like. On New Year's Day, don't go to a place where people are crowded. Come here.

If you are interested in the site, you can go to the Meishan Holy Land in Da Nang, Vietnam to cherish the long history. The beautiful mountain sanctuary is about 40 kilometers away from Hoi An. It is the site of the ancient Champo Kingdom. It is mainly dedicated to Hindu gods and kings and has been included in the world cultural heritage. A piece of debris lies quietly in the lush basin of the forest. Today's desolateness is hard to imagine how strong it was at the political center of the half-Vietnamese Champod. The carvings and statues on the wall are no longer complete, only the grass with strong vitality grows tenaciously. Meishan is known as Angkor Wat in Vietnam. There is no Khmer smile here, but there is also a shackle of its own history.

When I see the picture, everyone will think that this is Cambodia, but in fact it is Vietnam. Here is the Meishan site, located more than 50 kilometers west of Hoi An. Meishan has a history of more than 1,000 years and is the cultural soul of Vietnam. Meishan is the site of the ancient Champoor. It is the largest religious site in Vietnam. It is called "Angkor Wat in Vietnam". The temples here are made of masonry and have been the sacred center of Champoa for thousands of years and have been listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. There was a lot of viciousness in the Vietnam War. The brick tower that has not fallen for a hundred years can't resist the raindrops. After the war, only the remaining towers in the area were preserved. It has many similarities with Angkor culture. The scale and craftsmanship may not be comparable to Angkor, but the overall gas field is still very strong. The site is built in a dense valley surrounded by mountains. A total of 70 Hindu temples have been built throughout the valley. The towers of Zhanpo are built of red bricks. Although not tall, they are complex and reflect the Hindu style. Also, because the Angkor Wat, a huge city built with megaliths, is more resistant to the test of wind and rain, the corrosion is more severe, and some places are wild grasses; the more the ruins go in, the broken stone columns on the ground. The more, the better the sculptures are better. Photo: It is recommended to wear colorful clothes, national style is more suitable Ticket price: 15w Vietnamese Dong Time: 6
