The post 3 Reasons You Should Visit Vietnam This Winter appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>The cities of Vietnam are vibrant hubs that have elements of history and modernity at every corner. Visit the Old Quarter of Hanoi and walk through ancient streets and old Vietnamese architecture. Hanoi also boasts a wide variety of trendy restaurants and cafes, and the streets are filled with atmosphere as many strangers come together to play games. Ho Chi Minh City in the south offers a lively urban landscape and if you are interested in your history, the War Remnants Museum is a must-see.
If you’re someone who loves the Great Outdoors, Vietnam is the place to go as it moves into its summer season! Visit the rice fields of Sapa, with a background of some incredible mountains to set the scene. Or take to the coast of Ha Long Bay and enjoy the emerald waters and stunning rocks that rise out of the water. Wherever you end up, Vietnam has some amazing landscapes to offer this winter.
Vietnam’s cuisine is world-renowned and blends Southeast Asian ingredients with a French influence. Pho is a dish that has gained international appreciation but is best enjoyed at its source. The Banh Mi sandwich, which combines traditional Vietnamese flavors with a French baguette, is a delicious street food snack that you must not miss!

]]>Here are a few places that we guarantee will enchant your heart!
The citizens appreciate their history so it’s no wonder they have a lot of museums, monuments, and prisons that are reminders of the war. But they also look forward to the future, so enjoy tasty food in Hanoi’s restaurants and make sure you try cà phê (the delicious Vietnamese coffee).
According to local legend, when the Vietnamese fought against the Chinese who tried to invade them, the gods sent a family of dragons to help defend the land from invaders. This family of dragons began to spit jewels and jade that later became the islands and islets of Halong Bay, joining together to form a great wall. Legend or not, Halong Bay is a true gem. Make sure to spend more than a day at this out of this world location.
Sapa is a small town that is surrounded by rice fields and mountains. By visiting this town, you can enjoy the gorgeous landscape or get to know the locals which are really nice to all who visit!

]]>The five-star hotel is surrounded in gold with gold-plated tubs, sinks, an infinity rooftop pool, and toilets. Yes, gold-plated toilets! The bathrooms are even complete with the yellow metal. In fact, to decorate the hotel, about a ton of gold was used.
The hotel is located near Giang Vo Lake, and it has 441 rooms. It sticks out from the other building in the area which are mainly Soviet-era structures.
To stay a night, rooms start at $250 and during your stay you can enjoy dishes topped with edible gold flakes, drink from golden cups, and drink coffee made from a coffee maker with gold details.
“At the moment, there is no other hotel like this in the world,” Nguyen Huu Duong, chairman of Hoa Binh Group, who owns the property, told Reuters.
Other hotels that have 24-karat gold touches include The Villa Casa Casuarina in Miami Beach, which has a gold-lined pool, Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai, which has gold bath amenities, and La Mansión in the Four Seasons in Buenos Aires, which has gold-trimmed wood paneling.

]]>Vietnam is actually the second largest coffee producer in the world, which means they have some of the freshest beans around.
Everywhere you look, there are little coffee shops dotted all over the streets. It can be hard to know where to find the best coffee in this bustling city, which is why we’ve decided to make it easier for you and introduce you to the best coffee spot in the city.
And The Note Coffee, located at #64 Luong Van Can Street has taken coffee making to the next level. Not only do they offer all of the various types of coffee Vietnam is known for, like weasel and cà phê đá, but they add a personal touch. Each cup comes with a short letter from the baristas to the coffee drinker. That personal touch and the notes left behind make any weary traveler perk up and feel welcome.
If you’re looking for a coffee recommendation, ask for the cà phê đá. This is an iced Vietnamese coffee made with condensed milk and is possibly the most delicious creation on the planet.
The cafe is open Monday to Sunday, from 6:30AM to 11:00PM.

]]>This gem of a museum is filled with costumes from the many minorities of the country. There is an excellent exhibition on the role of women in wartime and the temporary exhibitions tend to be enlightening.
The museum is very much a monument for the leader of the Democratic Republic of North Vietnam but there are many surprises too. It’s free to enter and you’ll learn a lot and definitely be entertained.
There are 54 ethnic minorities in Vietnam and the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology explores them all. It is a thoroughly rewarding experience.

]]>The Lotte Tower is one of the tallest buildings of Hanoi. Head to the 65th floor for an awesome viewing deck where you can admire the fantastic city views.
If you head to Hoàn Kiếm Lake early in the morning, you will see locals exercising. Everyone is welcome to join in and you will often see people engaging in tai chi or yoga.
The night market on Hàng Đào Street runs all the way from Hoàn Kiếm Lake. You’ll find all sorts of trinkets, clothes and jewellery, perfect for a non-touristy souvenir.
The mosaic wall runs for 4km and was built by locals. It’s made up of tiny thousand tiles and is stunningly impressive.
At night, the popular Huc Bridge becomes lit by the lanterns that hang from the trees. It is perhaps even more beautiful at night than it is during the day, but it’s definitely worth doing both.
