Destinations
Vietnam is a country located in Southeast Asia, consisting of 58 provinces and 5 centrally governed cities.
Like Japan, it has a long and narrow shape stretching from north to south. Each region has its own unique history and culture, making it possible for travelers to experience completely different atmospheres and lifestyles as they journey through the country—this diversity is one of the biggest charms of traveling in Vietnam.
Flights from Japan take approximately 5 to 6 hours, making Vietnam easily accessible. In recent years, the increasing number of low-cost carrier (LCC) flights has made it a popular destination among young people and solo travelers alike.
In this video, we’ll introduce you to the many charms of Vietnam by dividing the country into three main regions: the North, Central, and South.

Northern Vietnam
Hanoi
Located in northern Vietnam, Hanoi is the well-known capital of the country and serves as its political and cultural center. Government buildings and foreign embassies line the streets, giving the city an air of solemnity and a sense of deep-rooted history.
At the same time, Hanoi is far from being just a “serious capital.”
Around Hoan Kiem Lake, a popular gathering place for locals, you’ll find early morning Tai Chi sessions, karaoke contests at sunset, and young people dancing with portable speakers—creating a nostalgic atmosphere reminiscent of Japan in the Showa era.
For history enthusiasts, Hanoi offers plenty to explore, from the Mausoleum of President Ho Chi Minh, the founding father of modern Vietnam, to the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and colonial-era buildings influenced by the French. These landmarks reflect a unique fusion of Eastern and Western cultures.
Hanoi is a city where formality and simplicity, tradition and modernity coexist in a curious balance—a place that truly symbolizes the depth and complexity of Vietnam.
Central Vietnam
Da Nang
Located in central Vietnam, Da Nang is the country’s third-largest city and a popular resort destination known for its beautiful beaches, just minutes away from the city center.
In recent years, resort development has accelerated, transforming Da Nang into an international tourist hotspot visited by travelers from around the world.
One of Da Nang’s key attractions is its prime location. Within just a few hours by car are historically and culturally significant destinations such as Hue, the former imperial capital of Vietnam, and Hoi An Ancient Town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), which has deep historical ties with Japan.
Thanks to this, Da Nang serves as an ideal base for extended stays—offering the perfect balance between beachside relaxation and cultural exploration, often all in the span of a single trip.
Blending tropical vibes with the conveniences of urban life, Da Nang is truly a city that offers the best of both worlds.
southern Vietnam
Ho Chi Minh City
Located in southern Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City is the country’s leading hub of economic development.
The city center is lined with high-rise buildings, hosting multinational corporations from the West and Asia—along with many prominent Japanese companies—making it one of the most rapidly growing business centers in the region.
At the same time, strong traces of its past as a French colony remain visible.
Colonial-era architecture from the 19th and 20th centuries, such as the Central Post Office and the Saigon Opera House, can be found throughout the city.
This unique blend of a modern metropolis and historical landmarks is one of Ho Chi Minh City's most distinctive charms.
In addition, the city never ceases to fascinate travelers with its dynamic energy—from its vibrant café culture and alleyway food stalls to the bustling Ben Thanh Market—a place where modernity and local life intersect in a truly exciting way.
