Vietnam

This new new Vietnam travel guide book is an indispensable travel companion celebrating a country that contains multitudes and subverts expectations. Vietnam enjoys 2,000 miles of coastline, complete with storied islands, beachside towns and fishing villages. Further inland sit historic heritage cities, jungle-cloaked mountains, terraced paddy fields, flower-fringed waterways and thousand-year-old temples. With its diverse geography, layered history and world-renowned food culture, it’s little wonder that the country is increasingly appealing to discerning, independent travellers. Written by a long-term resident, Bradt’s Vietnam provides in-depth and unparalleled cultural, historical and geographical context to all three regions in the country: northern, central and southern. This new Vietnam guide book comprehensively covers the major cities and sites – but it also explores lesser-known corners for self-tailored experiences that dodge the crowds.
