How about a trip to Vietnam South

This is the true tropics of Vietnam and where the mighty Mekong is king! Everything south of Phan Thiet, a relatively undeveloped town with a good beach, is dominated by the flat, immensely fertile soils of the Mekong Delta. Farming here is huge business and the produce of this region feeds millions of people a year as a result of the river and the hot and sunny climate. Smack bang in the middle you’ll find Ho Chi Minh City, named after the Vietnamese revolutionary, former capital of Vietnam and by far the country’s largest city (also sometimes referred to and previously known as, Saigon!).
HCM is a vast, very, very busy, chaotic, sprawling wonder typical of many large Southeast Asian cities. It is never really quiet here and little things like crossing the road will become worthy of an Instagram post or Facebook update! However, don’t let the madness put you off, because it’s a cracking city with bucket loads to see and do. As with much of Vietnam, history is big here and the museums are well worth a good long amble around to fully appreciate and recognise the horrors of their past and events like the Vietnam War (as well as being airconditioned havens from the heat!). Large and beautiful religious sights and temples will keep your camera busy and the endless restaurants here serving wonderful local food, will keep your taste buds interested for weeks! Theatres, especially small and short puppet shows here are also growing in scale and significance, many of which are outdoors and surprisingly enjoyable and a way to learn more about the culture of this fascinating and genuinely friendly country
