Halong and Sapa are the two holiday destinations in Vietnam that
attract the most tourists from around the world. Both the destinations are
different in flavour and thus offer something unique to the travellers. If you
are planning to enjoy some peaceful and recreational time this holiday season,
Halong Bay and Sapa are the places you must head to.
In Halong Bay, enjoy the most memorable cruise of your lifetime
amidst emerald blue waters and amazing limestone structures. Get ready to
experience splendid views of limestone karsts with bewitching shapes reflecting
out from the waters. The views are sometimes clear and at times hidden a little
by fog.
Located in northeastern Vietnam, Halong Bay is surrounded by Gulf
of Tonkin on the south and southeast. Halong Bay, considered as one of the
Seven Wonders of the World, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. Your cruise here
will bring to you awe-inspiring natural beauty and magical experience. Halong
Bay in Vietnamese language means ‘bay where the dragon descends into the sea’.
You will be able to fancy the dragon immersing into the waters of the Bay.
Spending your time in this modern day paradise will indeed fill
you with joy. Take a cruise in the various sailing options available at the
Bay, such as Junk boats, mid-range boats and luxury ships. While cruising enjoy
the floating villages, occult caves, limestone islands, lakes, pristine beaches
and lots more.
Sapa is a small and sleepy mountainous town in Vietnam that has
over the years become quite famous for many travelers. Known for its beautiful
landscape, Sapa also showcases rich cultural diversity. It offers breathtaking
views of Hoang Lien Son mountain range and also lures travellers with rocky
treks and other adventurous activities. When in Sapa, take a tour of lush green
forests, rice terraces, vegetation and other natural wonders.
The best time to visit Sapa is June to October. In the summer
season, expect to see a subtropical atmosphere when temperature ranges from
15.4ºC to 29.4ºC. In August, rain is more frequent in the area. From November
to February, the weather is wet and foggy and mostly people avoid this period
to see this country. After winter, the tourist season picks up and most of the
budget and luxury hotels in Vietnam get filled. If you are travelling during
this time, book your accommodation in advance.
