Vietnam

內容簡介

內容簡介 Brand new from Bradt is Vietnam, a travel guidebook celebrating this fascinating southeast Asian country, which combines 2,000 miles of coastline - with idyllic islands, golden beaches and fishing villages - with tropical rainforests, vibrant cities, stunning inland waterways, thousand-year-old temples, terraced paddy fields, herb-infused street food and a richly varied history. Little wonder that the country is increasingly on the wish list of discerning, independent travellers. Here you can cruise among the karst islands of Halong Bay, explore the forested mountains of the Central Highlands, go underground into the caves of Phong Nha or visit the tribal villages of Kon Tum. Alternatively, why not experience the French-style boulevards of Hanoi, the cobblestone streets of Hoi An or neighbourhood floating markets? Written by a long-term resident, Bradt's Vietnam not only covers the key tourist sites but casts a wider net to encompass lesser-explored alternatives and get under the skin of the country. Covering all three regions in Vietnam - north, central and south - this guidebook has responsible travel at its heart. Within the broad range of options suggested for sleeping and eating, what to do and where to go, particular attention is paid towards sustainability - identifying environmentally sensitive accommodation options, experiences contributing to the local economy, and retail outlets supporting traditions and certain communities. In Bradt's Vietnam, you can find: advice on how and when to engage with local people to deliver a poignant yet enriching travel experience that unpacks the Vietnam War; a rich exploration of the vibrant urban café culture (including where to savour each city's speciality coffee drinks); dedicated street-food sections for major urban areas; tips on how to enjoy unmissable sites while avoiding crowds; suggestions for getting the best out of motorbiking around the country; and insider knowledge about nightlife and cultural sights in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minch City, from speakeasy bars hidden behind bookshelves to boutique art spaces. Whether you want a taste of everything Vietnam offers, or prefer a deep dive into singular opportunities for heritage tourism, trekking, wildlife watching or caving, having Bradt's Vietnam to hand is like travelling with a knowledgeable local friend.
