Tourist Places In Vietnam

Nestling comfortably between the South China Sea in the east and Laos and Cambodia to the west, Vietnam is home to beautiful landscapes and dazzling cities.

Spread all over the country; there are numerous places to visit in Vietnam.

Here are the best Vietnam places to visit among them all:

1. Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum, Hanoi

The capital city of Vietnam, Hanoi houses one of the most visited Vietnam attractions – the mausoleum of Ho Chi Minh himself. Ho Chi Minh is the former president and the first prime minister of Vietnam, and also the founder of Vietnamese Communist Party and the country’s most important political leader. The monumental marble structure in Hanoi is grand, historic and considered as a sacred place, because of Ho Chi Minh’s contribution towards Vietnam’s history. The place has a strict dress code and is guarded 24x7 by the military. The Change of Guards ceremony is worth witnessing.

2. War Remnant Museum, Ho Chi Minh City

Vietnam has been right in the middle of both of the world wars, and then witnessed the famous Vietnam War in the last century. The War Remnant Museum houses various relics of these wars and more from the history. Armoured vehicles, firearms, tanks, infantry and artillery weapons and pictures of those eras are preserved in this museum. True to its name, the museum is really a place where the remnants of the wars fought are kept. It is one of the best Vietnam destinations to visit to know about the history of Vietnamese warfare.

3. My Son Sanctuary

My Son is the name of an archaeological site, rich in historical significance. Surrounded by the lush tropical greenery of Vietnam, My Son is what remains of the ancient capital of the Champa Kingdom. This Cham Era city has multiple temples, built between the 4th century and 14th century AD, dedicated to Hindu gods and goddesses – mostly Shiva. The architectural style of My Son Sanctuary reflects the artistic heritage of multiple Asian cultures – Indian, Chinese, Malay and more. It is a unique and historically enriching part of Vietnam sightseeing.

4. Hoi An

Located in Central Vietnam, this vintage riverside city is one of the must-visit Vietnam points of interest. The layout of this ancient town, dating back to almost 2000 years, is a perfect marriage of the east and the west. Originally a city of the Champa Kingdom, Hoi An has over the years collected footprints of the Chinese, Japanese, Indian and French heritage. Hindu and Buddhist temples, colonial-style wooden houses and the crisscrossing of canals and winding lanes make up the fabric of Hoi An. It is a perfectly serene town to walk around, take in the aesthetic beauty of the place and do some shopping in the quaint shops and boutiques selling clothes, shoes, accessories and quirky souvenirs to take back home.

5. Cham Island

Vietnam tourist attractions are not all about history and culture. The country has some brilliant natural bounty to show off as well. Cham Island, locally known as Cu Lao Cham, is a small but picturesque island in the South China Sea off the eastern coast. It can be accessed from Hoi An easily on a 30 minutes’ speedboat ride. The pristine island is known for scuba diving, cruising, snorkelling and other beach activities.

Ashok's 10 days trip to Vietnam

My wife and I went on a Vietnam & Cambodia vacation trip which was quite delightful. The people in both the countries are welcoming and friendly. SVietnamtrips organised our travels and we are grateful for their great work. Gracie Pham helped me with the planning of the trip from the very beginning. She suggested the itinerary and customised it for our needs. She was patient and accommodative through that entire process. The trip itself which we undertook in May 2025 was quite perfect, everything organised as per the plans and it went off very well. SVietnamtrips also took care of organising visas and air travels locally. We had special needs, being vegetarians, and it was well taken care of. Based on our plans, we had enough rest days and personal time which we enjoyed a lot. Good English speaking tour guides were arranged wherever we went! I would rate the planning and execution very high and to our full satisfaction and would like to thank Gracie, Ms. Tina and their team for a wonderful vacation!

Asharma's 5 days trip to Vietnam

Our vietnam trip was very good. The itinerary was very well designed. The cabs and shuttles were god as well. The only issue was with hotel selection. The hotels could have been slightly better. The hotels didn't have sufficient veg options and we were compelled to eat outside. Nor were the services in hotels very good. Apart from that, the trip was great.

Jatin's 5 days trip to Vietnam

5 Stars - An Unforgettable Vietnam Experience! We recently returned from our Vietnam trip (7th May to 13th May) organized by Travel Triangle, and we can't stop raving about it! Right from the planning stage to the final drop at the airport, everything was extremely smooth, flawless, and absolutely memorable. Our itinerary covered Hanoi City, the famous Train Street, Halong Bay cruise, the stunning landscapes of Ninh Binh, the charming streets of Hoi An, vibrant Da Nang City, and the absolute highlight of the trip – the magical Ba Na Hills. Every location was perfectly curated and timed, giving us a beautiful blend of nature, culture, and relaxation. Thanks to Travel Triangle for making this journey so seamless. The coordination, local guides, accommodation, and transfers were all top-notch. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-managed and memorable international trip. A special mention for Ba Na Hills – it felt like we had stepped into a fairytale. The Golden Bridge, cool mountain air, and the entire ambiance were simply surreal.
