Best places to visit first in Vietnam? Top sights?
Vietnam, huh? First time? Halong Bay. Absolutely. Stunning. Saw photos forever, finally went June '22. Worth it.
Hanoi's crazy busy, but cool. Like stepping back in time, then BAM, motorbike chaos. Ate some amazing pho for like $2 near Hoan Kiem Lake.
Hoi An's charming. Tailored clothes there in July '23. Got a linen dress for $30. Remember the lanterns, so pretty.
Mui Ne? Sand dunes. Fun, but hot. Went quad biking. Probably wouldn't rush back.
Ho Chi Minh City… So much energy. War Remnants Museum heavy, but important. Scooters everywhere. Crazy crossings.
