Economic history of Vietnam


For a very long time, Vietnam was well known for its" Tower of Hanoi” algorithm in the worlds of mathematics and programming languages. If you are not familiar with this Tower, then you probably associate Vietnam with its war for  independence [1945-1975], the celebration for which President Bill Clinton visited Vietnam in November 2000. Consequently, Dien Bien Phu, Truong Son Road and the famous Cu Chi Tunnels should be the first views of our country when you arrive.  

Vietnam’s past reads like a romantic legend, full of heroic struggles and outstanding  victories, but this will prove to be only one of the many reasons for your holiday here. You will discover unparalleled opportunities for cultural exploration. The Vietnamese nation was primarily influenced through a process of anthropological cross-pollination between ancient Chinese and Indian cultures. The Kinh (Viet) people make up the majority of the population, however, Vietnam counts no less than 54 ethnic groups within its borders. Many of them live in remote areas and follow their own language and cultural identity, thus contributing to a harmonious blend of independent ethnicities. However, from a historical standpoint, and during the course of national development, all ethnic groups have been closely united, sharing the fight against foreign invaders, defending the country's sovereignty, and eventually gaining the right to national independence and self-determination.

Vietnam is the proud recipient of three World Heritage Site cultural awards:
Other cultural attractions include the capital city of Hanoi, dubbed the “Pearl of the Far East” Ho Chi Minh City (formerly known as Saigon), the town of Sapa, the village of Mai Chau, and many others.
Vietnam's magnetism also comes from its landscape, offering a breathtaking 3260 kilometers of coastline which extends along the eastern boundary of the country and wraps around its southern tip. Our shoreline is flanked by stretches of virgin, white sand beaches and islands. Vietnam’s topography is blessed by unspoiled mountains and forests, hundreds of beautiful lakes, pristine rivers, waterfalls, and scores of unforgettable caves. Most famous amongst our natural resources is World Heritage designated site, Ha Long Bay, with thousands of islands and limestone rocks of different sizes and shapes. You can see Nature’s hand at work in the wondrous caves and grottoes that inhabit the islands. For your enjoyment, one or more of twenty stunning resorts along the coastline await you: Cat Ba Island in the north; in the Central region, Da Nang, Nha Trang and Mui Ne (Phan Thiet); and in the south, Vung Tau, Con Dao Island and Phu Quoc Island.
