According to Travel+Leisure, the better air connection helps foreign tourists, especially Indian tourists, have the opportunity to explore more destinations in Vietnam, not only Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi or Ha Long Bay.

The magazine reviews that Phu Quoc is “an enchanting place with white sand beaches, jade-colored forests dotted with waterfalls, rock pools and caves”.

Known as the “pearl island”, more than half of Phu Quoc’s area is preserved as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

Luxury resorts on the island are geared towards sustainability, making it a heaven for responsible travelers.

“The best souvenir is the island’s famous fish sauce. Buy this fish sauce at a traditional fishing village like Ham Ninh, and don't forget to enjoy fresh seafood here,” suggests Travel+Leisure.

This list includes other famous destinations with unspoiled ecosystems, scenic beauty or rich cuisine such as Alberta (Canada), AlUla (Saudi Arabia), Fukuoka (Japan) and Malta./.
