2-bedroom apartment near VEC Exhibition Center and Vinpearl.

Rated as the most convenient and ideal accommodation near VEC Dong Anh, VEC Homes not only offers you a good night's sleep but also wants to be your companion, suggesting the top breathtaking places to visit in Vietnam right below. Let's pack your bags and explore with VEC Homes!

1. Binh Lieu (Quang Ninh) – The "Mini Sapa" of the Northeast

Distance: ~255 km from central Hanoi.

Located close to the border in Quang Ninh province, Binh Lieu possesses a wild, majestic yet deeply poetic beauty. This place is likened to a "mini Sapa" thanks to its winding mountain passes embracing the cloudy slopes.

If you have the opportunity to visit Binh Lieu from October to December, you will be able to admire the endless fields of white pampas grass stretching across the "dinosaur spine". Alternatively, if you visit in late July, the golden terraced fields interspersed among rocky mountains will be a perfect backdrop for photography. According to recommendations from VEC Homes, this is a perfect destination for groups of friends or families wanting to escape the hustle and bustle to find peace.

2. Ha Giang – The Majestic Masterpiece of the Far North

Distance: ~280 – 300 km from Hanoi.

When mentioning places to visit in Vietnam that carry a pristine and magnificent mark, Ha Giang cannot be overlooked. The northernmost land is famous for its rugged cat-ear rocky cliffs, the jade-green Nho Que River, and treacherous yet fascinating mountain passes like Ma Pi Leng.

The journey from Hanoi to Ha Giang usually takes about 6 – 8 hours. If you are a backpacking enthusiast who loves conquering challenges, experiencing the "Ha Giang Loop" through the highland districts will surely leave unforgettable memories. Don't forget to bring warm clothes as the weather here is always much colder than the capital.

3. Ta Xua (Son La) – The Peak of Cloud Hunting

Distance: ~230 km from Hanoi.

Ta Xua is currently one of the "hottest" travel spots on the Northern map. The road to Ta Xua treats visitors to scenery of shaded pine forests and panoramic views of vast spaces. Especially on winter days, this place turns into a rolling "sea of clouds" under the sunrise, creating a magical scene as beautiful as a painting.

The road is quite steep with many curves, so make sure your driving skills are solid. If you don't know where to go for a "change of scenery" this weekend, Ta Xua is an excellent choice.

4. Hai Phong – Food Tour and Island Paradise

Distance: ~110 – 120 km from Hanoi.

Taking only about 1.5 - 2 hours from the capital, Hai Phong is an extremely flexible stopover for short trips. The port city stands out not only with its dynamic rhythm of life but also retains tourists with its incredibly diverse food tour paradise.

You can take a leisurely stroll in the city center, enjoy fresh seafood, and then take a boat to Cat Ba Island or Lan Ha Bay to immerse yourself in the crystal-clear waters. VEC Homes believes that the combination of island and urban vibes in Hai Phong will bring you a surprisingly refreshing feeling.

5. Moc Chau (Son La) – A Valley of Vibrant Blooms

Distance: ~190 – 200 km from Hanoi.

About a 4-5 hour drive away, the Moc Chau plateau welcomes you with vast green tea hills, ripe strawberry gardens, and lush pine forests. Moc Chau is beautiful all year round, but it is most brilliant during the season of pure white plum blossoms or bright yellow canola flowers filling the sky.

Besides the lush natural landscape, Moc Chau also bears the rich cultural identity of the Thai and H'mong ethnic groups. You can sleep in a stilt house, visit a highland market, and enjoy unique Northwest cuisine. This is a "bright spot" for a gentle yet exciting getaway.

6. Ninh Binh – The "Halong Bay on Land" Masterpiece

Distance: ~90 – 100 km from Hanoi.

If you don't want to travel too far but still want to admire charming landscapes, Ninh Binh is the number one candidate. Dubbed "Halong Bay on land," it boasts peaceful rivers flowing between majestic limestone mountains.

You can take a boat down the Ngo Dong River, explore mystical caves in Trang An, or learn about history at the Hoa Lu Ancient Capital. With flat, easy-to-navigate terrain, Ninh Binh is highly suitable for excursions for the whole family or the elderly.

7. Da Lat (Lam Dong) – The City of Dreams

Distance: Over 1,100 km from Hanoi.

If you want to expand your journey exploring places to visit in Vietnam to the South, Da Lat is a classic destination that never gets boring. The city on the Lam Vien plateau leaves its mark with its cool climate all year round, whispering pine trees, tranquil Xuan Huong Lake, and countless green tea hills.

From Hanoi, the fastest way is to fly directly to Lien Khuong airport, then head to the center. Whether traveling with family, as a couple, or solo, Da Lat always knows how to soothe your emotions with its slow and peaceful pace of life.

8. Mang Den (Kon Tum) – A Peaceful Haven in the Central Highlands

Distance: ~960 – 1,100 km from Hanoi.

Referred to as the "second Da Lat" of the Central Highlands, Mang Den carries a pristine, pure beauty and hasn't been overly commercialized. Coming here, you will enjoy the chilly air, bike around the lakes, watch waterfalls, or sip coffee amidst the morning mist.

To get to Mang Den, visitors from the North can take a flight to Pleiku or Quy Nhon and then continue by passenger bus. This is a promised land for souls needing "healing" and craving to fully immerse themselves in nature.
