Ha Giang shines in Hostelworld’s list 11 up-and-coming destinations for 2019
Hostelworld has revealed its top 11 up-and-coming destinations for 2019, based on its year-on-year increases in total bookings made from 2017 – 2018.
Ha Giang in Vietnam's north has been named among 11 up-and-coming destinations for 2019, according to a list released by Hostelworld, a leading brand for millennials and other budget - conscious travelers seeking adventure and a social travel experience.
Ha Giang province is described as the most beautiful place in the area, with its sweeping landscape sceneries. Bordering China, the panoramic views over the terraced rice fields will blow you away.
Coron in Philippines tops the list, followed by Arugam Bay and Ella in Sri Lanka, Labuan Bajo and Holbox in Mexico, Nusa Lembongan in Indonesia, Unawatuna in Sri Lanka, Ha Giang province in Vietnam, Beirut in Lebanon, Yasawa in Fiji, Goreme in Turkey.
Earlier, Vietnam has been named among the 14 best destinations which are worthy of a visit in 2019, according to a list released by Forbes, a US business magazine.
Eclipsed by other Asian countries for decades, Vietnam finally is getting its moment. Forbes said that pho is always flavorful, the Buddhist pagodas remain breathtaking and the festivals continue to be vibrant. But the magazine adds on some elevated experiences: Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, Hoi An’s new spa services (Visiting Masters and Mindful Moments initiatives); InterContinental Da Nang Sun Peninsula Resort’s basket boat piloting and lantern-making lessons; and Pullman Da Nang Beach Resort’s unique coffee-making class.
Vietnam aims to receive about 18 million foreign visitors and carter to 85 million domestic ones in 2019, and earn more than VND700 trillion (US$30.2 billion) from tourism, according to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
