TuoiTreNews.vn - Tra Nhieu village in the central Vietnamese province of Quang Nam used to be a well-known commercial port. Now, it has become an attractive, ideal eco tourism destination for travelers. The village, located along the Thu Bon River, seems to be more crowded in early summer as people tend to spend their free time at a windy, cool place. Besides walking from the My Son Sanctuary through Nam Phuoc Town, tourists can choose another way to go to the village, which is taking a 3km, 15-minute boat trip from Hoi An Ancient Town along the Thu Bon River.

TuoiTreNews.vn - Ho Chi Minh City and a seaplane operator are in discussions on a new tourism product that will allow tourists to tour the city from the sky. Tourists can board the seaplane at Tan Son Nhat International Airport to enjoy the aerial sightseeing tour, La Quoc Khanh, deputy director of the municipal tourism, said Thursday. The aircraft can land either on the Saigon River or in the outlying district of Can Gio to give tourists more chances to explore the city, he added. “We have recently met with a private carrier to discuss the launch of this new service in Ho Chi Minh City,” Khanh was quoted by newswire VnExpress  as saying. “This will help diversify the tourism products of the city.”

TuoiTreNews.vn - Nha Trang, a tourist hot spot along the south-central Vietnam coast, looks amazing under the reddish cloak of catappa leaves in springtime. The resort city, located in Khanh Hoa Province, becomes adorable with its imposing centennial “bang” (catappa, or tropical almond) trees. From February onward, the trees, which line the streets there, shed their old “costume” and put on a new, gorgeous "outfit." The reddish or yellow foliage is perfectly congruous with the clear blue sky and casts shade over the silky sand and turquoise sea. Locals and tourists waste no time in taking leisurely strolls under the lush catappa shade and relishing the breezy ambiance.
