It turns out, just near Vietnam, there are countless beautiful scenes waiting to be explored!
1. Krabi (Thailand)
Forget about Bangkok or Phuket because Krabi will be the perfect choice to jot down in your travel journal. Just a 1.5-hour flight from Bangkok, Krabi is located in southern Thailand and boasts beaches that look like they've just been through a Photoshop filter. Krabi is serene and peaceful (thanks to the majority of tourists flocking to Phuket nearby), but most importantly, Krabi possesses the raw, expansive, and vibrant beauty of an untouched coastal area.
2. Koh Rong Samloem (Cambodia)
If you're looking for a beautiful island getaway to escape the hustle and bustle of busy life, Koh Rong Samloem is definitely the perfect suggestion for you to unwind for a few days.
Koh Rong Samloem is a stunning island in Cambodia, just 2km away from SihanoukVille, accessible by a 45-minute boat ride across the sea. What makes Koh Rong Samloem special is not only its beauty but also its preserved natural purity and freshness. Tourism services here are just beginning to develop, which is great because as mentioned earlier, Koh Rong Samloem is the perfect place for you to escape the hustle and bustle. Here, there's no WiFi signal, electricity is cut off twice a day, and when the power goes out, you can also say goodbye... to your phone.
3. Li River (China)
Li River has been given many titles by international newspapers: The most beautiful city in China, and Chinese youths aspire to open cafes in Li River. Li River has a charming, ancient beauty that we often see in period dramas. Clean streets, fresh air with lots of trees, majestic scenery where from Li River, you can admire the imposing view of Ngoc Long Snow Mountain. Perhaps listing all the praises about Li River would be empty talk, because what makes the city memorable is not only its beautiful scenery but also its soul. In Li River, it's the tranquility and charm. From ancient houses to willow trees swaying gracefully beside red lanterns, winding stone streets around residential areas, and even streams meandering through the streets. These are the things that breathe a peaceful, serene soul into Li River amidst the beauty of the landscapes of Yunnan.
4. Bagan (Myanmar)
When you go online and search: Travel to Myanmar, surely about 1/3 of the images appearing on your Google Image page will be photos of hot air balloons flying in the golden morning sun, drifting gracefully over the temples of Bagan. During the period from the 11th century to the late 13th century, there were over 4000 temples and pagodas built in this area. As of now, 'only' about 2200 traces of those constructions remain. This uniqueness is what defines Bagan, bringing antiquity even into the very air and every breeze in this place.
Bagan is most beautiful at sunrise, perhaps that's why people come to Bagan often wanting to try sitting on a hot air balloon, flying over the temple peaks in the early morning, just to admire an ancient, primitive, and tranquil Bagan. The golden sun, glorious like a scene cut out from a movie, the ancient landscape as if you're sitting on a time machine, wandering back into the past.
5. Luang Prabang (Laos)
When in Laos, besides visiting Vientiane, make sure you've planned a visit to Luang Prabang. This city is truly a gem for those seeking tranquility. It's a beautiful heritage city with temples, winding dirt roads bathed in the faint sunlight of Buddhist shadows, peace permeating every breath, every ray of sunshine. And nature even blesses this place with surreal beautiful waterfalls. You might just want to throw off all your daily burdens and escape to this place, from now until many years to come.
6. El Nido (Philippines)
The Philippines has always been a treasure trove for sea lovers, with stunning islands like gems adorning a string of pearls. El Nido is one such gem, a gem that will make you fully understand the meaning of the word: nature's gift.
7. Cameron Highlands (Malaysia)
Contrary to what one might imagine about a bustling Malaysia, Cameron Highlands presents a completely different image of Malaysia, an image of peace, nature, and grandeur.
Cameron is the premier resort destination in Malaysia, boasting tea plantations, strawberry farms, and rolling hills painted in lush green grass. Cameron Highlands enjoys a cool climate, with refreshing morning mist and golden sunshine in the afternoons. Here, you not only shed the fatigue of busy life, breathe in the highland air, but also feast your eyes on the lush tea hills, endless shades of green, forming a picturesque landscape.
8. Boracay (Philippines)
As a beautiful island located off the coast of the Philippines, Boracay has long been one of the country's tourism 'brands,' with pristine white sands and emerald waters.
Boracay has all the elements to be a paradise: the serene island scenery, poetic seascape, both rugged and charming, excellent services with a full range of options from luxury to budget for tourists. In Boracay, you can freely choose, whether it's beach bathing, jumping from a rock into the clear water, or diving because swimming among the fish and admiring the coral through this crystal-clear water is truly a fantastic experience.
