Vietnam, the best destination for winter trips

Vietnam is a tropical country and there are 4 seasons in the north, but only two in the south which are the dry and the rainy season. The winter in the north is not very cold. The temperature is hardly below 10 degrees. In the mountainous areas of the north like Sapa, Ha Giang, Lang Son, it is sometimes 3-10 degrees but very unusual and Western tourists are seen wearing short during winter days in Hanoi, Halong Bay, etc.

In the central part of Vietnam from Hoi An to Nha Trang and south of Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh city, Mekong delta, Phu Quoc island. There is no winter, it is warm and sunny so the beaches in Phu Quoc, Nha Trang, Mui Ne are ideal choices for a relaxing winter holiday. For this reason, the US National Geographic Traveller magazine has recently named Vietnam among the best destinations for winter trips.
