Once a forbidden country, Vietnam is now rapidly opening up to the outside
world and welcomes travelers and tourists from the West. Despite the pressures
of rapid post war development, and enduring indications of past American involvement
in a conflict that ended nineteen years ago, the country has still managed to
retain its rich civilization and highly cultured society. Most visitors to Vietnam
are overwhelmed by the traditional charm and natural beauty that includes fertile
river deltas, verdant green rice fields, stunning beaches, majestic mountains
and misty forests.
