VIETNAM
Local Life behind Colonial Walls
VIETNAM AT A GLANCE
Shaped by resilience and transformation, Vietnam’s turbulent past has given rise to a dynamic present. Since the reunification of North Vietnam and South Vietnam in 1975, the country has embraced the modern world while preserving its deep cultural roots.The skyline tells the story—colonial mansions sit next to ancient pagodas and glistening skyscrapers, reflecting a unique blend of old and new. From the emerald rice terraces in the north to the sun-drenched beaches of the central coast and the winding waterways of the Mekong Delta, the landscape is as diverse as the culture.Vibrant markets, time-honoured festivals and centuries-old villages offer an authentic window into everyday life. And the food? A mouthwatering mix of fresh local ingredients and colonial flavours that’ll have you coming back for more.
VIETNAM REGIONS
Vietnam stretches across three distinct regions, each offering its own unique flavour and rhythm. The north enchants with misty mountains, ethnic traditions and ancient culture. Central Vietnam blends imperial history with lantern-lit streets and spicy cuisine. Down south, life flows slowly along the Mekong Delta’s waterways, ending in the turquoise seas of Phu Quoc and Con Dao — Vietnam’s idyllic island escapes.
