Available on newsstands now, the Jul/Aug issue of National Geographic Traveller (UK) invites readers to discover unique experiences in Vietnam as the nation marks 50 years since the end of the war. 

Vietnam’s varied attractions are finally getting the attention they deserve, with new tourism projects and the arrival of the Michelin Guide taking the nation from backpacker’s favourite to a destination with increasingly universal appeal. Despite growing visitor numbers, however, its misty mountains and sleepy fishing villages currently attract around half the annual travellers of neighbouring Thailand, making now the perfect time to visit. 

This month, National Geographic Traveller (UK) zooms in on experiences that highlight the Southeast Asian country’s near-endless variety, from hill-tribe hikes in the northern mountains of Mai Chau to food-focused adventures in the imperial city of Hue. Readers will find all this and more in the Jul/Aug issue of National Geographic Traveller (UK)
