“From exploring the world’s largest cave to sipping ‘weasel coffee’, Vietnam has a new adventure at every turn. Vietnam, a country with nothing but ample natural beauty, rich history and unique heritage is nothing short of paradise,” a magazine recommends.

 

After Vietnam on the list are Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives and Sri Lanka.

 

Previously, Vietnam was ranked among top travel destinations for 2019 by U.S. travel website Go Overseas.

 

According to Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, Vietnam welcomed 15.4 million visitors in 2018, going up by 19.9 percent compared to 2017. This set a new record for the country’s tourism.

 

A 2018 global report by the UNWTO ranked Vietnam’s tourism growth as the fourth highest in the world.
