Hanoitimes 10:32, 2015/01/02
Malaysia’s independent newspaper, Malay Mail Online, has delivered its rankings and suggestions for travellers for the coming year and cites Vietnam as one of the top five destinations that stand out from the crowd.

The newspaper reported that Vietnam has declared 2015 its national year of tourism, meaning that there has never been a better time to visit.

Special events and shows for tourists will be held at the country’s monuments and cultural heritage sites, such as the imperial fortress of Thang Long.
 

 
Danang, a city located between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, topped Tripadvisor’s list of the best destinations of 2015. With its Buddhist sanctuaries and beautiful beaches, the destination is winning over more and more members of the website’s travel community.

Rounding out the top five are Namibia, Panama and Nicaragua, Lithuania, and Mons, Belgium.  


Vietnam has set the target of welcoming 8.5 million foreigners and 41 million domestic visitors this year, grossing more than US$12 billion from the tourism sector.
