The Ho Dynasty Citadel which is located in Vinh Long and Vinh Tien communes of Vinh Loc district, Thanh Hoa province, is a unique stone structure built by the Vietnamese people. It is hoped that the Ho Dynasty Citadel will be recognised as a World Cultural Heritage Site at the 35th meeting of the World Heritage Committee in Bahrain in June.
Unique stone architecture
The construction of the Ho Dynasty Citadel was completed in only three months (from January 1397 to March 1397). The Citadel served as the capital of the Dai Viet nation in the final years of the Tran Dynasty, as well as the Dai Ngu nation for seven years (1400 – 1407), and was officially named ’Tay Do‘ (Western Capital) to distinguish it from the Thang Long – Dong Do Citadel (Eastern Capital). The only stone citadel in Vietnam built within such a short period of time, the citadel comprises of two layers: the inner layer ’Hoang Thanh‘ was built with stone and the outer layer “La Thanh” was built with soil.
The stone walls were arranged so that they could withstand earthquakes and had an average height of five metres. The stones were laid without cement and each stone weighed up to 20 tonnes. The citadel has four gates with a canal surrounding it as an extra layer of protection. After over six centuries some parts of the citadel still stand almost intact.
In February 2010, a filing for the recognition of the Ho Dynasty Citadel as a World Cultural Heritage site was sent to the UNESCO’s World Heritage Centre. The file states that the Citadel has a distinctly oriental citadel architecture, being both the centre of power as well as a military fortress. The citadel was also built to represent both royalty and divine powers and connects natural and human space. Thanks to the unique construction techniques all the major stone sections are intact and have not been affected by time and weather or by recent urban encroachment.
People’s consensus needed
The file submitted to UNESCO has been greatly appreciated by international and local experts for its comprehensive documentation, including maps and pictures. However, at an international workshop held last April in Thanh Hoa province, Dr. C. Young, from UK Heritage, whilst appreciating the comprehensiveness of the files warned that support from the people living in the citadel’s buffer zone was very important.
Over the years, the Thanh Hoa provincial People’s Committee has implemented various measures to preserve the unique stone structure, as it has been identified as an important site on the province’s tourist routes. The local authorities are planning the comprehensive preservation of the site.
During a recent field trip to the citadel by members of the UNESCO World Heritage Standing Committee, UNESCO’s representative to Vietnam, Katherine Muller Marin, Head of the UNESCO Vietnam Office expressed her admiration for the unique techniques used in the construction of the citadel. However, she hoped that whether the citadel is recognised by UNESCO or not, local authorities, scientists and others would continue to research into the citadel’s mysteries and invest in its preservation and maintenance for future generations.

Ninh Van Bay, Nha Trang, Vietnam
Visitors who want to escape from city life when they visit the coastal city of Nha Trang in Khanh Hoa Province often go to Ninh Van Bay on Hon Heo Peninsula.
Ninh Van Bay is remote and untouched, yet easily accessible by boat from Nha Trang in about 20 minutes. Its known for its fabulous coral reefs, white sand beach and impressive mountain backdrop.
The natural setting is not disrupted by any large resort structures. Only a few small bungalows covered by leafy roofs are observable from the bay. The sea, mountains, streams and forest all combine to create picturesque landscape. From a distance, Hon Heo Mountain looks like a dragon lying in a pine forest, with its head directed out towards the ocean.
The facilities strive to protect the environment, with tree branches salvaged to cover structures, and organic rubbish composted for trees. Electric cars and bicycles are the primary transportation on the peninsula. Visitors can enjoy the setting by trekking in the forests and up the mountain, with vendors along the way serving drinks and snacks. Jungle fowl, squirrels, dormouse, monkeys and other wildlife are abundant. Investors in the Six Senses Ninh van bay have received many awards for environmental protection. The bungalows are built in traditional Vietnamese style, close to nature, with wood and stone than blends with the environment, making it an ideal hideaway from the noises of modern life. A short walk from the bungalows, tourists can touch to the water or view the coral reef.
Six Senses Ninh Van Bay presents the reality of the destination, with an architectural style reflecting the traditions of Vietnam. This is very evident in the reception champa and dining pavilion, which are classic Vietnam structures transported across the water and assembled at the site. The emphasis here is on privacy, space and luxury making this as a most luxurious nha trang hotel without doubt.
Alyssa Landon from California spent her honeymoon at Ninh Van Bay, saying that she and her husband had an amazing experience that they didn’t want to end and will never forget.
“From the spectacular lush green mountains to the sparkling blue bay waters, the natural setting and views from our rustic yet luxurious poolside villa and from the dining on the bay were absolutely breathtaking,” Landon said. “Ninh Van Bay gave us a sense of peace and total relaxation. It let us really unwind and just have a great time with each other.”
Ninh Van Bay not only offers the perfect location for relaxation, but its proximity to the popular destination of Nha Trang and its prime position in a calm and sheltered bay means that visitors can enjoy a multitude of activities and excursions, including windsurfing, hobiecat sailing, kayaking, snorkelling, waterskiing, fishing trips and boat charters, as well as scuba diving lessons.
Sheltered from winds, Ninh Van Bay area is usually calm from March to October. The rainy season sets in in November and December, when diving is not always possible. Most local diving takes place on the coral reefs, so the majority of dives are between 12-16m in depth.
Just a short boat ride from the resort, the surrounding islands and coral reef offer the chance to explore different and interesting sites. An inviting water temperature averaging 26-30oC throughout the year adds to the pleasure of diving in the bay.
After a relaxing day, tourists can visit Ninh Hoa District’s centre to enjoy nem chua (fermented pork roll), the speciality of the region. It’s grilled, served with vegetables and pineapple, wrapped in rice paper and eaten with sauce.
The road connecting Ninh Van to the land is still rough and under construction, so the bay remains only accessible by boat, said Tra Thai Lam, chairman of Ninh Van Commune’s People’s Committee. He expected that the road would be completed soon to bring more tourists to the site.

The famed Vietnamese Pho is without a doubt an excellent dish – succulent thin slices of beef dumped with fresh herbs in a stock of tasty broth. It’s no wonder travelers to Vietnam would often go searching for the ultimate pho. But the country’s noodle treats is more than just that, and travelers would often miss out on Vietnam’s other noodle treats. Here are a few of the best Vietnamese noodles, for the adventurous gourmand.

Hu Tieu Nam Vang – Phnom Penh Noodle Soup
Literally meaning Phnom Penh Noodle Soup, this is a Cambodian-Chinese concoction that was tweaked to the Vietnamese palate. Nam Vang is the Vietnamese word for Phnom Penh, so you can actually find various versions of Hu Tieu (Noodle Soup) in Vietnam, with Hu Tieu Nam Vang being one of the more popular noodle soup around. The dish is a surf-and-turf mix of cooked pork, thinly sliced beef, shrimp and group pork with light vermicelli in a sweet and savory broth. The essential garnishes are important here, Chinese celery, chives, cilantro and lettuce adds an extra layer of taste into this tasty dish.

Bun Rieu Oc – Snail Soup with Crab Paste
Hailing from North Vietnam, the Bun Rieu Oc (Snail Soup with Crab Paste) is a dish featuring chunks of snails and crab roe on top of a sweet-savory broth. The dish is studded with pork ribs, tomatoes, water spinach, sliced banana blossoms, fried tofu and more, topped with the ever popular rice-noodles. The Bun Rieu is hearty, light and refreshing, but also a very complex dish, with the various flavors and textures of the snails, crab and pork ribs mixed together.

Bun Thit Nuong – Grilled Pork with Rice Vermicelli
This local favorite is a simple dish that is more salad than soup, a welcome break from the usual soupy-broth on Vietnam’s other favorite dishes. Literally meaning Grilled Pork with Rice Vermicelli, this dish features grilled marinated pork chops served cold on top of rice vermicelli. As is the usual in Vietnam, a host of fresh herbs accompanies the dish – Thai basil, carrot and radish pickle, as well as cucumbers, bean sprouts, and crushed roasted peanuts. Add a dash of fish sauce and chilies according to personal preference, then enjoy the collision of flavors and textures.

Banh Canh Cua – Thick Noodle Crab Soup
Banh Canh noodles are like the Vietnamese version of udon – they are thick and chewy, although they are typically made with tapioca or rice flour instead of wheat. There are various versions of Banh Canh, and the Banh Canh Cua (Thick Noodle Crab Soup) is one of the more popular amongst them. The Banh Canh Cua features chunks of crab meats and shrimp balls paired with the chewy thick noodles in a crimson broth garnished with chopped scallion.

Pho Bo Tai – Beef Rice Noodle Soup
And finally of course, it would be remiss to talk about Vietnamese noodle treats without mentioning the popular noodle dish that is Pho. The Pho Bo Tai is a version of Pho with Half-Done Beef Fillet, featuring half-done thinly sliced beef with white rice noodles dumped in a clear soupy broth. The broth is the most important fixture of the dish, and the hardest to make as well, usually by simmering beef bones, oxtails, charred onion and spices for several hours. The dish is then topped with cilantro, basil, lime, bean sprout and onions.

German restorers are using traditional Vietnamese methods to restore the facade of the Imperial Palace in Hue.
Restoration work is currently being carried out on Buu Thanh Gate and screens around King Tu Duc tomb.
The German foreign ministry has commissioned experts from the German Conservation, Restoration and Education Project (GCREP) to renovate six murals dating from the Nguyen Dynasty in the lobby of An Dinh Palace.
The artwork is magnificent, but heavily damaged. Before attempting to restore the murals, team leader Andreas Teufel sent samples back to Germany for chemical analysis.
The team are using traditional mortar made from molasses, lime and sand to restore the works. Teufel said the restored parts of the palace will be indistinguishable from the original work.
“Previous restorers tried to preserve the original works but they didn’t know how to do it properly and didn’t have access to modern technology,” she said.
“That was why relics at the site have largely been left unrestored. The work they did was far from perfect and bore little resemblance to the original. People in the past used different painting techniques. The Vietnamese restorers used modern pigments and techniques,” she said. “I discovered that the original painting technique was similar to that used in Italy .”
The German restorers have used traditional pigments, which are applied to the wet mortar. The colour will be fixed when the mortar dries. Bacteria will grow on the walls during the drying process, which helps to make the artwork more durable.
The restoration work is in keeping with UNESCO’s 1964 Charter.
According to Phan Thanh Hai, vice director of the Centre for Restoration of Hue Relics, the techniques used to restore the palace would be applied to other sites.

Ho Chi Minh City, or Saigon as it was once known, is Vietnam’s largest city and most chaotic. I love the chaos, though you need to be careful walking across the street! Connections to Vietnam’s turbulent history are visible all over the city, from the War Remnants Museum to the Cu Chi Tunnels. The city has a lot to offer, great shops, fantastic nightlife, and delicious food. After Hoi An, it is my next favorite city in Vietnam.
Costs in Ho Chi Minh City
- Hostel Prices: A private room costs from 140,000 VND per night.
- Budget Hotel Prices: A night in a budget hotels costs from 150,000 VND.
- Average Cost of Food: By eating at street stalls and markets you can get a meal for 19,000VND. Sit down restaurants are also inexpensive at around 75,000VND.
- Cost of Internet: Internet access is extremely cheap in the city at around 100VND per minute.
- Transportation Costs: Public buses around the city will cost 3,000 VND, taxis are more expensive at 12,000VND for the first kilometer then 10,000VND per kilometer thereafter.
Things to do in Ho Chi Minh City
- Cu Chi Tunnels. Crawl through the extensive network of nearly 500 km of tunnels utilized by the Viet Cong in the 1960s. Tours involve a description of the tunnels, after which tourists are allowed to crawl about the maze and fire AK47s at shooting targets.
- Chinatown. Chinatown is the predominately Chinese district of Saigon. A hive of activity, it is a maze of temples, restaurants, jade ornaments, and medicine shops. Aside from the sprawling Binh Tay market, you’ll find some fascinating temples in the area including the Chinese Chua Quan Am Temple and Cha Tam, which is a Catholic cathedral.
- Museum of Ho Chi Minh City. Not to be confused with the “Ho Chi Minh Museum”, the city museum’s history has included a Governor’s Palace, committee building and Revolutionary Museum. Nowadays its picturesque grounds attract newlyweds posing for photographs. You’ll find a collection of weaponry and memorabilia from the country’s revolutionary struggle and captured U.S fighter planes and tanks.
- Vietnam History Museum. The History Museum is a great place to learn about the colorful events of Vietnam’s past. The museum houses a fantastic collection of ceramics, weaponry and cannons. For your cultural fix, there are photographs, clothes and household objects dating back as far as the 1700s.
- Emperor Jade Pagoda. Emperor Jade is one of the most impressive pagodas in Vietnam. The intricate carvings and depictions of deities including the Emperor Jade himself are hugely photogenic and it’s no wonder this pagoda is as popular with tourists as worshipers.
- Notre Dame Cathedral. The Notre Dame Cathedral is an imposing red brick building built between 1877 and 1883. The two towers that front the cathedral tower over visitors at nearly 200 feet tall while the neon lit statue of the Virgin Mary is also an arresting site.
- War Remnants Museum. The War Remnants Museum is a must see for anyone with an interest in Vietnam’s history of combat with both the French and the Americans. Inside you’ll find hugely informative exhibits focusing on biological warfare, weaponry and in depth statistics of Vietnam’s armies during the conflicts. The museum’s best exhibit is the collection of bombs, tanks, planes and war machinery which can be found in the courtyard.
- Cao Dai Holy See Temple. The Cao Dai religion is relatively new at less than 100 years old. The temples are distinguished by the “all seeing eye” which dominates its architecture and as the Cao Dai temple is the central to the religion, it is hugely ornate and impressive. Many people combine a trip to the temple with the Cu Chi Tunnels excursion.
- Ben Thanh Market. Though the market is crowded and rife with pickpockets, it is the ideal place to pick up a bargain or try some traditional (and inexpensive) Vietnamese food. Vietnamese traders drive a hard bargain but you’ll be hard pushed to find a better selection of souvenirs!
- Can Gio Island. The Can Gio island is popular with tourists and Ho Chi Minh locals attempting to get out of the rat race. The beaches here aren’t mind blowing but it’s a great place to relax and enjoy a meal at one of the many seafood restaurants. The island’s monkey sanctuary and mangroves are great for wildlife fans.
Budget Tips for Ho Chi Minh City
- Taxis. Taxi drivers will rip you off so agree to a price ahead of time.
- ATMs. These offer the best exchange rates and there are plenty dotted round the city.
- Markets. When shopping in any of the city’s markets you may feel like a wallet on legs as the traders call out to you. Be firm and be ready to walk away.

The economic centre of Southeast Asia’s rising economic star, Ho Chi Minh City is one of the planet’s most exciting cities, where influences from France collide with the Orient, and where the Vietnam War is remembered like it was yesterday. And with skyscrapers, landmarks and fashion cenres galore, never has there been a better time to head to a place that, despite the global recession, is still very much alive and kicking.

Authentic Vietnamese
Vietnamese cuisine is taking off around the world, but there is still no better place to find it than in the country’s gourmet capital. Join the likes of Bill Clinton at Pho2000 near Ben Thanh Market, which proudly proclaimed “Pho for the President” along with various photos of the then President of the United States enjoying a bowl of pho at the iconic restaurant. The menu here is long and varied, and is packed with locals and tourists alike. Those looking for something a little more fusion should head to Xu Bar, which is not only one of the cornerstones of night life in the city, but is also the place where the celebrated Chef Nguyen is attempting to revamp traditional Vietnamese cuisine.

Coffee & Cafe
The Ho Chi Minh City is brighten up by various lights at night, giving it a laid-back atmosphere that give rise to the prevalence of cafes dotted along the streets. Vietnam is one of the world’s most renowned producers of coffee, and caffeine lovers will find themselves in aromatic heaven trying out the varied local brews here. For a sure-fire way to refresh and relax, pick a random cafe at a bustling street corner and order a local brew. Sit back and enjoy as you laze yourself and watch the various pedestrians passing by.

Hitting the Town
Other than a pick of bustling cafes to relax and sip your time away, the Ho Chi Minh City also plays host to numerous trendy bars that is a favorite of both locals and expats. The Q Bar, Saigon Saigon Bar, Xu Bar, Lush and Velvet are but a few in the long list of popular hangout spots for the party crowd, each with their own distinct trendiness and appeal.

Iconic Landmarks
It’s pretty easy to navigate the sprawling metropolis of Ho Chi Minh City on foot, particularly since most of the places of interest is located in District One. Start with the Notre Dame Cathedral, an outstanding red-brick building adorned with staiend glass, then move on to Saigon Central Post office, a French colonial building with a classic interior. This also operates all postal services from the city and is the best place to buy a phone card. The Opera House typifies the city, showing both western operas and traditional Vietnamese performances. The Reunification Palace was the home of the former Viet Cong leader who the city is named after and is a grand colonial building overlooking the city centre.

Bikers Gang
After exploring the iconic landmarks of District One by foot, rent a motorbike and cruise along the streets for a way of transportation that has become ingrained into the fabric of society. Throngs of Vietnamese commuters travel by motorbike, and although it may not be one of the safest way to travel, it is certainly one of the most authentic.

War Remnants
One of Vietnam’s biggest tourist attractions, the Cu Chi Tunnels are a network of underground caverns built during the Vietnam War. About 121 kms long in total, visitors can take a tour of the tunnels and see for themselves the conditions in which the Vietcong waged a bloody war against the machineries of US. The War Remnant Museum, also known as the Museum of American Atrocities, is another tourist attraction worth visiting. It’s extremely biased and one sided, but still an important insight nevertheless into the Vietcong’s reaction to the war.

Shopping Seasons
Aside from eating most visitors to Vietnam’s number one city find themselves spending most of their time here shopping. Ben Thanh Market is a major market in Ho Chi Minh City and is the place to find souvenirs. There is a wide selection of t-shirts sporting the likes of “Good Morning Vietnam” and “Miss Saigon” to lacquerware and embroidery, and for those that love a good brew, some of the best coffee beans in the region. Ladies will want to try out the Ao Dai, the Vietnamese national dress, which is one of the most exquisite in the region, combining trousers and a dress.

VietNamNet Bridge – Danang will become more attractive to tourists and individual investors seeking second homes in the central region.
The municipal people’s committee is to woo tourists by permitting a marina and tourism property complex to be built by a joint venture between VinaCapital’s Danang Marina Investment Limited and local firm Quoc Cuong Gia Lai.
The joint venture has just gained investment certificate for building a marina, a water sport and entertainment park and a complex of coastal condos, villas, a hotel and office buildings.
The $174 million project will be located in Son Tra district’s Nai Hien Dong commune, three kilometres from Danang’s city centre and cover 11 hectares of land and 6ha of water surface. The first marina project ever licenced in Danang will be operational by 2018.
“This project is unique in central region. It will make the city more attractive to tourists,” said Lam Quang Minh, director of the Danang Investment Promotion Centre. He said the project, with a luxurious marina, sport and entertainment park, would underscore Danang as a famous coastal tourism destination like Phuket in Thailand or Bali in Indonesia.
Home to nice beaches and close to world heritage sites such as the ancient capital of Hue, My Son holy land and hoi an ancient town, Danang is luring in lots of local and foreign tourists. But, while many investors are developing luxurious Danang hotels, the city does not have many sites to satisfy tourists’ entertainment demands.
“Tourism property projects consist of a marina, sport and an entertainment park is what we need now,” said Minh.
Last year, Danang Port Holding Limited Liability Company signed a memorandum of understanding with Singapore Cruise Centre for building an international cruise hub in Danang, expecting to tap into the growing cruise industry demand in South East Asia. However, the cruise hub project has not yet to be licensed.
A marina at the newly licenced project of VinaCapital and Quoc Cuong Gia Lai will not only promote tourism attractiveness of the city, but also attract individual investors, who are seeking second homes in central region.
Currently, Danang is one of the largest second home markets in Vietnam with tens of projects. A report of property consultancy CBRE showed that Danang has 55 tourism property projects with total investment capital of around $3 billion.
Foreign developers like Indochina Capital, VinaCapital and Daewon Group are developing Hyatt Regency Danang Resort and Spa project, Danang Beach Resort project and Daewon Da Phuoc project respectively in Danang. Meanwhile, local developers also joined the race with projects like Furama Resort danang, Son Tra Spa and Resort and Vinpearl Danang Resort & Residences.
The supply of second homes is rising in this market, but Minh said facilities like a marina and a sport and water entertainment park would ensure the success of VinaCapital and Quoc Cuong Gia Lai’s project.
CBRE also said in a report on Vietnam’s second home market that building a marina, water sport and entertainment facilities was new wave for luring home buyers.
