Why travel or backpack in Vietnam?

• Marked by the Vietnam War, the struggle between the communist North of Vietnam (backed by Russia) and the capitalist South (backed by the U.S.) is still visible, Vietnam is a fascinating country for history buffs. Today, it is a popular country for travelers who want more of a challenge than Thailand. Most tourists travel from north to south, or vice versa. This route is beautiful and easy to travel. If you go off the beaten path, you will find yourself in the real authentic Vietnam where people still live completely without Western influence.
