Among domestic destinations, Quy Nhon (Binh Dinh) is probably the most mentioned name, "beating" the famous names before that such as Ly Son or Nha Trang, Phu Quoc. The beautiful city of Quy Nhon is located on a poetic coastline, with many pristine islands with crystal clear water that can be seen all the way to the bottom. You can visit famous destinations this summer such as Ky Co island, Eo Gio or Trung Luong tourist area - known as the Jeju island of Vietnam.
Because of the new construction, the shops and motels are designed very Western, such as the Surf bar or Trung Luong camping area (where there is a giant swing in the middle of the sea). Tourism services in Quy Nhon are quite developed with many shops along the beach, providing professional service. Moreover, from Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi, visitors can fly directly to Quy Nhon without having to travel much by road, this is a big plus for Quy Nhon.
Diep Son

Road below sea level. |
Diep Son archipelago (Khanh Hoa) is a new destination, attracting tourists by its wild and unique beauty with a road in the middle of the sea. This place used to cause "chaos" among tourists in the early summer months.
From 6am when the tide goes down, a road will appear connecting three large and small islands. This road is 0.5m above sea level, about 500m long. Walking in the middle of the ocean, the vast blue sea and sky is an unforgettable experience for anyone.
Nguyen Huong Quynh (born in 1994, living in Hanoi) made many people jealous because of her dream trip to explore Phu Yen and Diep Son Island, Binh Ba (Khanh Hoa) with 3 close friends, receiving thousands of likes and shares in many newspapers.
Dark Cave - Mooc Stream

Miss Tourism Ngoc Diem once shared an article about the Dark Cave, Chay River, and Mooc Stream tourist area (Quang Binh), causing a fever for those who love to travel. The photo of the beauty queen wearing a bikini, sitting on a swing on the blue stream surface like ink became the motivation for many summer trips.
Ngoc Diem introduced: "The scenery here is even more beautiful than what you see in Diem's pictures: deep blue sky, green mountains and forests, and mysteriously blue water due to eroded limestone, blending into the endless green flow. A picture could not be more beautiful on a hot summer day."
The cheapest way to travel from Hanoi to Dong Hoi city (Quang Binh) is by bus for 200,000 VND. If you have more money, or from Ho Chi Minh City, you can fly to Dong Hoi airport. From here, you can rent a motorbike and travel about 60 km to Thien Duong cave and Dark cave. Mooc spring is about 10 km from Thien Duong cave.
Phu Yen

Moss bank of Xom Ro - a new emerging tourist destination in Phu Yen. |
Phu Yen began to be loved after the film adapted from the work of writer Nguyen Nhat Anh chose it as the main setting, since then this place has been associated with the poetic name "the land of yellow flowers and green grass". Since the film was released, many people have wanted to come here to enjoy the peaceful and quiet beauty of this place.
You can visit places such as Ganh Xep, Ganh Da Dia, Vung Ro, Xom Ro moss beach, O Loan lagoon or Bai Mon. Among them, Ganh Da Dia is the most prominent name with hundreds of rocks stacked tightly on top of each other like puzzle pieces on the beach, Xom Ro moss beach is very poetic in season, moss covers the rocks with green film creating a strange shape.
Boracay

The sea water in Boracay is an attractive blue color. |
Boracay is an island in the Philippines, emerging as a blue sea paradise comparable to the Maldives in the Indian Ocean, ranked in the top 10 most beautiful beaches in Asia and the top 25 in the world. This summer, many young people choose the island as a resort. Each post about Boracay receives a lot of attention from the backpacking community, including the posts of hot mom Hang Tui and MC Chang Mi.
Not only luxury resorts, Boracay also has a full range of scuba diving and parasailing games for those who love adventure.
From Vietnam, visitors fly to Manila, then fly to Boracay. There are 2 airports on the island: Caticlan and an international airport in Kalibo city. You will have to fly from Manila to one of these 2 airports to get to the pier and take a speedboat to Boracay island.
Koh Rong and Koh Rong Saloem

Immerse yourself in the blue sea and white sand in Cambodia. |
Closer to Vietnam than Boracay, the island cluster of Koh Rong and Koh Rong Saloem (Cambodia)is also very "favored" this summer because the cost is quite cheap, especially traveling by road, so it is especially loved by students. Ngo Thu Uyen (born in 1995, currently a student in Ho Chi Minh City) once shared that the cost of her trip was less than 3 million VND - a very reasonable price.
This year, Cambodia’s island tourism has been particularly praised for its beautiful scenery, no less than the famous islands of Thailand, but more pristine and deserted, and equally attentive service. However, there is a drawback: this place is only suitable for relaxation, because there are no special entertainment activities and the shops close early.
From Koh Rong Samloem there is a fast boat to Koh Rong for 5 USD/way, no return. That is, if you want to visit both islands, you should go from Sihanoukville - Koh Rong Samloem - Koh Rong - Sihanoukville.
Phoenix Ancient Town

Phoenix Ancient Town is an ancient citadel in Phoenix Town, Hunan Province, China. This is probably the most difficult destination to conquer this summer because of the long travel time and the complexity because the locals do not use English.
In return, each check-in photo of the previous visitors is as beautiful as a painting, making people at home "restless". Therefore, many people have defied difficulties and boldly set out. Phuong Hoang possesses a peaceful, idyllic landscape, seemingly completely isolated from the outside world. Every little corner is very poetic and romantic, along with thousands of years old relics along the cool, clean Da Giang River without a single piece of trash.
The article about going to Phoenix for less than 6 million VND by teacher Mau Quang Minh once caused a stir in the online community at the beginning of summer because the cost seemed unbelievable. To get to this ancient citadel, you will have to travel by train from Hanoi to Nanning, then transfer by train from Nanning to Cat Thu station (Hunan), then take a bus to town.
