Central Vietnam is endowed with many stunning attractions, especially the area from Quang Binh Province to Quang Nam Province where UNESCO has recognized Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, Hue ancient city, Vietnam royal music, My Son Sanctuary and Hoi An ancient city as world heritage sites. The region’s beaches, especially in Danang and Quang Nam and on Cham Island, are splendid. Ba Na Mountain and the Truong Son Mountain Range are both magnificent and legendary.
Connecting these world heritage sites is one of the strategic tourist products of Fiditour during the upcoming Tet holidays and through the year 2010.
The five-day-and-four-night tour explores attractive destinations, fascinating landscapes and diverse cultural and historical relics in Quang Binh, Thua Thien-Hue, Quang Nam and Quang Tri provinces and in Danang City.
The tour departs from HCMC by air. The itinerary opens with famous sites in Quang Tri Province including La Vang Holy Sanctuary, where Catholic pilgrims worship the Holy Mother, and Hien Luong Bridge-Ben Hai River, the former demarcation line between the North and South.
Continuing, the tour moves up the lovely Son River to discover Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in Quang Binh Province, known as the kingdom of grottoes. The park abounds in natural masterpieces including the country’s longest underground river, largest cavern and widest (and prettiest) sand bank, not to mention some of the world’s most astonishing rock formations.
The tour then follows Truong Son Road to visit Truong Son Graveyard, the Ben Tat and Dakrong suspension bridges and Van Kieu Ethnic Village before heading to Thua Thien-Hue to visit Phuoc Tich Ancient Village on the O Lau River. The peaceful scenery and the ancient relics will give tourists an insight into traditional Vietnamese culture and history.
Next is Hue ancient city to visit Hue Citadel where 13 kings of the Nguyen Dynasty settled. At night, tourists can take a boat trip on the Huong River to enjoy traditional Hue singing and the vivid lights of the flower lanterns.
On the way from Hue to Hoi An, the tour stops for sun bathing at the unspoiled Lang Co Beach.
In Hoi An, tourists will enjoy the tranquility, the colors of the lantern lined streets and the traditional folk games of the ancient city.
The highlight of the tour is Cham Islet, 20km offshore Hoi An ancient city and recognized by UNESCO’s International Coordination Council of Man and the Biosphere Program as a global biosphere reserve.
This speck of land remains cool and fresh year round, even in summer, with its immense green forest.
The final stop before returning to HCMC is Ba Na Mountain, an ecotourism area that offers all four seasons each day, spring in the morning, summer in the afternoon, fall in the evening and winter at night. Standing 1,500m above sea level, this mountain is equipped with a tram for a spectacular view toward Danang City.
