While this site is more toward Thailand I believe it is time to give Vietnam a mention as this country is rapidly emerging from the backwaters of Asian travel destinations to the forefront.

As is mentioned before Vietnam is not the name of a war but a country that is moving forward in leaps and bounds economically and in building up its tourist industry. while it maybe behind Thailand in some areas its attraction I feel is its truly Asia atmosphere that modernization has not yet removed.

Yes there is the slow buses and trains, roads and walkways not the best and your internet maybe on and off in some areas but then emerging tourist destinations are often more fun and provide more opportunities than a place over run with tourist and commercialized by it.

Vietnam offers a truly budget holiday with places like the Mekong Delta to explore, boat tours around the Halong Bay and explore the under ground tunnels in Saigon called Cu Chi Tunnels.

For Online dating Vietnam has a lot to offer in the way of single Vietnamese Girls who are just as interested in meeting western men as the next country, beautiful Asian women who are relaxed as far as religion goes compared to say the Philippines, how good there English is maybe a problem but again depends where you go on your dating tour, in the cities like Saigon and Ho Chi Minh there will be English speaking at a higher level than out in the country side.

As in Thailand with the Tuk Tuk in Vietnam the recommendation in the city tour is the Cyclo driver basically a carriage powered by bicycle and pedal power, this is a great way to get a feel for the city and the area you are in, been slow you can take in the sights, smells and French architecture that abounds there.

There are great beaches and bays that have yet to be corrupted by hordes of tourist a great place for your Vietnamese girlfriend and your self dining on sea food, freshly cooked on the beach and light on the pocket as well.

Vietnam is becoming ever popular as one of the new destination for Travel Asia, now is the time to explore that great country and the mysteries and wonders that surround it.

Add Vietnam to your Travel Asia ternary, it may get a bit noisy with the honking horns and the sellers maybe a little pushy at times but they are a fun and friendly people it will be a experience you will not soon forget and for the better.
