Slow life in Da Lat, lost in Ha Giang

Netherlands-based booking app Booking announced three domestic experience trends that Vietnamese guests should try at the end of the year after the vibrant summer and crowded September 2nd holiday based on the number of searches, bookings and tours experienced by users on the app.

Slow living

Instead of spending time visiting as many places as possible but getting tired and not being able to explore the destination deeply, Booking suggests trying to experience slow travel.

Travelers can re-adjust their itinerary with fewer stops but spend more time at each experience, immerse themselves in the local culture, and chat more with locals.

The ideal destination is Da Lat, where the climate is cool all year round and is entering the season of wild sunflowers blooming. Rent a motorbike and slowly drive along small roads, admire nature or stroll among the green pine forests, a suggestion from Booking.

Visitors can also sign up for a one-day Da Lat experience tour to be taken by a local guide to attractions such as Truc Lam Zen Monastery and Lang Biang Mountain.

Wander with purpose

Booking suggests that travelers try to experience wandering with purpose, become a true explorer and turn wherever they want without a plan.

From a fresh travel experience to a short conversation on the street with a local or accidentally wandering into a delicious restaurant, visitors will have the most memorable memories.

The suggested destination for this travel experience is Ha Giang, where there are villages immersed in mist and majestic limestone mountains, winding mountain passes.

Travel light

Instead of bringing too many things that lead to excess, arranging things reasonably will help the trip more comfortable. Boldly discard unnecessary items, bring basic personal items, easy-to-wear clothes in all situations is a suggestion in this case.

Phong Nha town with winding green rivers, immense rice fields next to mountains covered in green trees is an ideal place for tourists to return to nature, away from everyday life.

Pack your bags and head to Phong Nha, home to Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park and friendly, hospitable locals. The area is also close to the city center, making it convenient for visitors to visit restaurants and bars.
