Ho Chi Minh City, also known as Saigon, got many of the best attractions in Vietnam and is an energetic tourist destination for all. Vietnam’s war-torn history comes to life with their illuminating museums, classic French architecture, and artefacts.
From Ho Chi Minh City it’s a 5-hour bus ride to the surfer’s village called Mui Ne. Not just tourists but also the locals enjoy kite surfing. If you are travelling as a tourist you could base yourself at one of the many resorts in Mui Ne; and if you can’t seem to choose between turquoise beaches, mesmerizing sunsets, and surreal scenery, you could stay in a beach resort such as Anantara Mui Ne Resort and experience the southern coast of Vietnam and escape from the chaos of Ho Chi Minh City.
