NORTH VIETNAM

North Vietnam is one of the best destinations for nature lovers, with majestic mountains, limestone cliffs, and stunning rice fields. It’s also one of the most budget-friendly countries in the world. We did the complete North Vietnam Motorbike Loop twice and it was one of the most thrilling experiences of our two years of travel in Asia. Check out the 7 best places to visit in North Vietnam.
