HÀ NỘI — Việt Nam has been listed among the top 10 best places to go for a budget honeymoon in 2023 by prestigious global travel website Lonely Planet.
The website suggested newlyweds can spend their unforgettable honeymoon in the “pearl island” of Phú Quốc, the ancient town of Hội An, or the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hạ Long Bay, without hurting their wallet.
According to the website, the top 10 budget-friendly getaways allow visitors to count their pennies without compromising on the once-in-a-lifetime experience. Indeed, they can experience a dynamic culture and delicious cuisine during their first adventure as newlyweds.
Lonely Planet stressed that Việt Nam is something of a street-food heaven, adding that that visitors must sample the country’s signature dishes, such as Phở bò (beef noodle soup), Bún chả (a type of barbecued pork with rice noodles), and Bánh mì, a local type of baguette.
“A mid-range trip won’t break the bank either, but will buy more characterful guesthouses, a better Hạ Long Bay cruise and memorable experiences (a cookery class, a cycle around Hội An) with change left for a beach stay on beautiful Phú Quốc Island,” it noted.
The magazine also recommended that foreign couples pay a visit to the country outside of the high season of July and August as they will have the best chance possible to find budget accommodation.
Apart from Việt Nam, three other Asian countries were also named in the list, including India, Cambodia, and Indonesia. — VNS
