Vietnam Red River Delta Haiphong

Mémorial de la guerre, Hải Phòng (Vietnam) by Christine Chauvin

Vietnam's third largest city is a major transportation hub yet does not draw a lot of travelers. Be sure to try the local coffee.

Haiphong is the third largest city of Vietnam beside Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City with population of over 2 million people. The city's name means "coastal defense" and it is nicknamed the Flamboyant City because of the many flame trees planted throughout it. Haiphong is Northern Vietnam's most important seaport and has many industrial parks invested by multinational corporations. Feel free to visit the local temple and the small history museum.

The site was of great help since I was already on the road when I had to plan the final part of my trip in Italy, I didn't have much time to spend on it and the site made everything easier and faster with a great price. Italy has a lot of different routes, the site gave me a lot of options and insights to make a good plan. Overall it was a great experience, I would definitely use it again.

The selection of hotels offered the perfect choice of quality hotels in our price range. As we traveled it was wonderful to know that each new hotel we arrived at would be as good if not better than the last. The team and RoutePerfect couldn't have been more helpful. I have recommend Rout Perfect to everyone, and we are already planning our next holiday with RoutePerfect. We had a holiday of a life time.
