Buzzing motorbikes, packed with people, animals and whatever else fits on them. Screaming horns. Strenuous street hawkers. The air a mélange of all kinds of different smells. From Hanoi, the cultural hub in the North, to gleaming Saigon in the South - a slumbering country on the move, Vietnam with its bustling cities will captivate you.

They are Vietnam's secret treasures, hidden miles away from populated areas: Deep in the heart of the country, shores at inland lakes are covered with lotus blossoms full abloom. Deserted beaches like Bai Sao or Mui Ne appeal with red or white sands and invite to swimming and kayaking.

Vietnam's culture combines tradition and innovation. As ancient as 4,000 years, Vietnamese culture has been subject to many changes. Due to its agitated past, it has become a blend of its indigenous cultures as well as Chinese, Polynesian and Western influences.

Untouched nature, primeval forests, dusty roads - On Vietnam's islands you'll find everything to escape from fast-paced everyday life. Islands like Cat Ba, Phu Quoc or Con Son reflect nature in its whole blaze of color, presenting the breathtaking beauty of Vietnam.
