Vietnam is an exciting country for tourism and investment. Bustling street life, delicious cuisine and majestic scenery all await you. A country constantly in motion, Vietnam always balances young urban culture with traditional values. In the city, ancient temples are just a turn away from modern shops. In the countryside, life still flows along the rivers and harvests. This contrast between old and new makes up a large part of Vietnam's appeal. Another reason to visit Vietnam is its natural beauty. The North has majestic mountains and beautiful limestone bays. The Central Coast Road leads to historical relics and romantic beaches. And in the South, the sleepless life of Ho Chi Minh City and the riverside villages in the Mekong Delta will make you want to linger forever.
The aroma of a cup of Vietnamese coffee is a great alarm clock. The fertile basalt soil of the Central Highlands grows quality robusta coffee trees. These coffee beans are one of Vietnam's most beloved export products to the world. Vietnamese coffee culture is very diverse, you can easily count hundreds of coffee shops in big cities. Vietnamese people make traditional coffee using aluminum filters. Watching time pass while waiting for a cup of coffee to drip makes this drink even more flavorful.
With a history of fighting against invaders to protect the land, win freedom, independence and build the country dating back thousands of years by the Vietnamese people and the convergence of 54 other ethnic groups. each other has contributed to the diversity, richness and uniqueness of Vietnam's culture.
Vietnam's history began from 1 to 2 thousand years BC. Over many centuries with the Ly, Tran, Le, and Nguyen dynasties, from the mid-19th century, Vietnam became a French colony.
