When people think of Vietnam they normally envisage scenes from War movie such as Platoon, Full Metal Jacket - Apocalypse Now etc. However, after a long - bitter War, Vietnam is fast becoming Pearl of the Orient and becoming a tourist paradise. Vietnam is one of the most beautiful countries in South East Asia, with stunning landscapes, lush paddy fields, ethnic cultures, idyllic beaches - charming cities. in Vietnam you will always find children - people making time to say “hello” and you will certainly feel welcomed with open arms - warm smiles!
