KonTum - Place of more than 600 ethnic minority villages and hamlets

The most northerly of the three towns on the Highland plateaux, the provincial capital of Kon Tum is located on the banks of the Dakbla River about 900km from Ho Chi Minh City and around 200km from Qui Nhon. It’s a pleasant, unassuming sort of place.

Nha Trang is the closest thing to a European resort centre in Vietnam, but still retains its Vietnamese culture and its small town atmosphere.

The city is flanked by nearly ten kilometres of prime beach and benefits from an all-year-round warm climate and an attractive archipelago of offshore islands.
Further out in the South China Sea are the Spratly islands, mostly occupied by Vietnam but claimed by several south-east Asian countries including China.

Qui Nhon - the last Kingdom of Champa and an expanding city today

Qui Nhon is the little visited provincial capital of Binh Dinh province. Although it was recognised as a city as late as 1898, its history reaches back to the days of the Kingdom of Champa.
In the 11th century, the Cham people migrated southwards and moved their capital city to a location about 30km north of present-day Qui Nhon and named it Vijaya. It survived until 1471, when the citadel was sacked by the Vietnamese.

Da Nang - the famous name of American marine during American war

Originally known as Cua Han, it gradually developed into a commercial port replacing Hoi An in the early 18th century, when European shipbuilding was improved and large deep-draught vessels could easily enter Da Nang Bay.

My Son was once the spiritual heart of the Kingdom of Champa that occupied what is now the central area of Vietnam for over a thousand years.

The origins of the Cham are unclear, but it appears that they were an important element of the Indianisation of South East Asia around the first and second centuries AD.

An important part of the culture of the various groups was the creation of massive temples and monuments, the quintessence of which was the amazing Angkor complex in Cambodia.  

The Ancient Town of Hoi An

Hoi An, in Quang Nam province, is about 35km south of Da Nang on the mouth of the Thu Bon river.

In the middle of today's modern municipality is the ancient port town of Hoi An, surrounded by urban development. Facing the silted-up river that once made it a major trading centre, it is now a World Heritage Area and a popular destination.

Hue - the ancient charm

The Imperial City of Hue, Vietnam’s ancient Imperial Capital, lies at the mouth of the Perfume River (Song Huong) .

It, too, has been disfigured by warfare, first by French colonists who sacked and burnt the Imperial Library as a reprisal for resistance, and then by a massive US barrage during 1968 Tet Offensive that destroyed much of Hue’s ancient Citadel.

Quang Tri - the theatre where most of the important scenes of the Vietnam - American War were staged

In 1954, Ho Chi Minh’s government in the north and the French colonial administration in the south agreed an armistice that involved a ‘temporary’ partition of Vietnam. The Ben Hai River, in the extreme north of Quang Tri province, became the arbitrary line dividing the two halves of the country.

Vinh - the stop-over between the North and the South

Vinh is roughly halfway between Hanoi and Hue located twenty kilometres from the sea in the narrowest part of Vietnam.

The Lam River loops round the south and east of the city, and the mountains of Laos are clearly visible to the west.
