To celebrate the New Year of 2026, let’s take an aerial tour across Vietnam with The Weekly. Our journey begins with the “Hexagonal Village” in the northern mountainous province of Tuyen Quang. Located about 160km from downtown Ha Giang, the H’mong Cultural Village in Pa Vi, Meo Vac Commune, is a destination deeply rooted in the cultural identity of the H’mong ethnic people.

Heading to the central region of the country, the “Dead Forest” at the Thuong Kon Tum hydropower reservoir in Quang Ngai Province is an attractive destination. This pristine and relatively unknown spot is a perfect recommendation for nature lovers who enjoy exploring new lands. In the South, the Reclining Buddha statue at Som Rong Pagoda is a prominent highlight amidst the peaceful scenery of Soc Trang (now under Can Tho City).
