Le Figaro has highlighted that Vietnam is an ideal winter destination for French tourists, but springtime can offer a great alternative for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of peak season. This is because travelers can benefit from the quieter atmosphere and fewer crowds that come with visiting during this time. Plus, they can still enjoy all of the attractions and activities that the country has to offer.

Le Figaro also lauded Vietnam as an ideal destination to explore its natural beauty and indigenous cultures. With its diverse topography, the country offers numerous opportunities for adventure and cultural exploration.

The author recommended a 16-day journey across Vietnam, starting in the north and ending in the south, to take in the stunning sights of verdant rice paddies and gain a deeper understanding of the knitting and indigo-dying practices of the Dao and Mong ethnicities in Sa Pa, a renowned tourist hub in northern Vietnam.

The author also suggested that tourists should spend time visiting Tam Coc in the northern province of Ninh Binh, a site that boasts sparkling rice paddies and stunning rocky mountains and has been dubbed “Ha Long Bay on land”.

Tourists can take a tour of a fragrance chemist’s laboratory, or experience the local farming lifestyle on a farm owned and operated by local farmers.

During the journey to the ancient capital of Hue, a local chef can take visitors directly to the market and select ingredients for a cooking class.
