Recently, Booking.com revealed the most searched domestic and international destinations by Vietnamese travelers for the upcoming holiday (with stay dates from August 31st to September 3rd, 2024).

Another highland destination, Sa Pa, a mountainous town in Lao Cai known for its fresh air, ranks 9th on the list.
Additionally, coastal cities like Da Nang, Vung Tau, and Nha Trang continue to attract interest from travelers. Notably, Phan Thiet makes its debut in the top 10, thanks to the opening of the Dau Giay – Phan Thiet expressway.
