Vietnam has a population of about 100 million, with Vietnamese as the official language. Its currency is the Vietnamese Dong (VND), and the climate varies from humid subtropical in the north to tropical in the south, with a distinct rainy and dry season that shapes the rhythm of daily life.
Visitors come to Vietnam for its balance of natural beauty, living history, and warm hospitality. You can explore Hanoi’s Old Quarter and French architecture, cruise through the limestone peaks of Ha Long Bay, or visit Huế and Hoi An for ancient temples, lantern-lit streets, and riverfront charm. In the south, Ho Chi Minh City offers energy, street markets, and a glimpse into Vietnam’s modern rise, while the Mekong Delta reveals floating villages and rice paddies that sustain local communities. Vietnamese cuisine is fresh and layered with flavor, featuring dishes like pho, bánh mì, fresh spring rolls, and cà phê sữa đá, often enjoyed at open-air stalls surrounded by conversation and laughter. The population is largely Vietnamese, with ethnic minorities preserving unique traditions through textiles, music, and festivals that honor nature, ancestors, and resilience.
