Ha Long Bay, in the Gulf of Tonkin, includes some 1,600 islands and islets, forming a spectacular seascape of limestone pillars. Because of their precipitous nature, most of the islands are uninhabited and unaffected by a human presence. The site's outstanding scenic beauty is complemented by its great biological interest.

The Cu Chi cave system, situated 60 km beyond Ho Chi Minh City, is a vast network of subterranean tunnels that stretches all distance towards the Cambodian frontier. The tunnels served as a way of communication among settlements. Furthermore, the tunnels were easily reachable from HCM City, with a one-and-a-half-hour trip.

According to The Travel, Southeast Asia boasts a rich tapestry of distinct cultures and faiths, and it is considered a favourite part of the globe because of its beautiful beaches, delectable cuisine, and low rates of tourism.
