    The world's longest sea-crossing cable car is beautiful and indeed very long. We were the only two people on the way there, which was fantastic as we had it all to ourselves. The Xiangdao Amusement Park was alright, but we weren't very interested in the water park. The complimentary drink vouchers were only redeemed at different points for beer and watermelon juice, which was a bit of a letdown. We ended up redeeming the beer but barely drank any, which wasn't a great experience. Otherwise, it was fine.

    Very cost-effective, affordable price, Ba Na Hills is definitely worth a visit, picturesque scenery, European 🏰, as if you have traveled back to the Middle Ages, sometimes foggy, sometimes afternoon, sometimes sunny, a very dreamy place.

    I would say some food in the restaurant doesn’t taste that good, but the rides is all fun though! While the aquarium is very amazing and the ferris wheels has an amazing view of the whole park and the beaches.

    A perfect day at I-Resort Nha Trang, soaking in hot mineral springs and a private mud bath surrounded by nature’s calm.The water was warm and silky, the air filled with the gentle sound of flowing streams. For a moment, time slowed down — and I felt what “true relaxation” really means.No rush, no noise, just peace.My skin felt smoother, my mind lighter… it’s as if all the stress simply melted away with the warm mineral mud. 🧖‍♀️✨If only we had something like this back home — I’d come every week just to find this kind of calm again. 🍃

    We enjoyed the night bus tour! The scenery was beautiful, and we cherished the moment. Even though it rained a little, the staff was kind enough to give us raincoats, which is highly commendable. We plan to try again when we go back to Saigon!

    This was a really fun experience and the puppeteers were very talented! It was also good value for money, but we were unsure why this was the top rated thing to do in Hanoi, as there were so many other amazing activities to do.
