1. Hoi An

Photo: Vinpearl

Hoi An is a place where the bold march of progress peters into a leisurely amble. In this one-time trading port, the Thu Bon River meanders past crumbling shophouses and weathered pagodas, while sampans come and go from the old ferry quay. Outside the Old Town, two-lane roads slice through waving rice fields and emerge at a frothy coastline. Stay a couple of days, and Hoi An's easygoing beauty and lantern-lit nights may leave you hopelessly beguiled.

Merchants from China, Japan and later Europe settled in Hoi An from the 15th to 19th centuries, creating a unique architectural fusion. Bring your camera as you tread the Japanese Bridge, Tan Ky ancestral house, and Phuc Kien Assembly Hall.

Sunrise in Hoi An is a prime time to grab your hat and hop on a bike. With any luck, you’ll find yourself in a sea of green, with water buffalo flicking their tails. In Cam Thanh and Tra Que, you’ll pass vegetable farms and frond-fringed ponds.

2. Dalat

Located on Lam Vien Highlands at the height of 1,500m from sea level, Dalat is compared to a romantic and elegant lady, adorned with vast patches of beaming radiant blossoms, and drenched in the eerie frost. Dalat is a little Paris, dotted with old fashioned French structures that have survived over a century. The city was the first and most complete resort town of the French in Vietnam, as originally planned in the first half of the 19th century and also the largest resort town of Indochina.

Walking along the meandering trek of Prenn Pass encircled by muttering green pine forests, one can play with mischievous rays of the sun that gently dapple through the foliage and fall on the way, touch your shoulders and hair, while breezes swirl and sing a rhyme of natural freshness and inner peace from within.

Prenn Pass leads you to the city center. Here visitors should roam Lang Biang Mountain, Cu Lan Village, strawberry farms, Love Valley, Cau Dat tea hills, Datanla Waterfall, Pongour Waterfall and surrounding pine forests to fully make the most of the city’s superb wilderness.
