If you find yourself with a spare day or two and you’re happy to travel 17 miles, take a look at Hai Phong. This place has lots of things to keep you entertained. See the best sights beginning with Lach Tray Stadium, Hai Phong Opera House and Du Hang Pagoda. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Ha Long, 25 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, let it be Halong Bay Marina. (But we’d also recommend Sun World Ha Long Park and Tuan Chau Beach.)
