In terms of domestic tourism, Vung Tau, a coastal city near Ho Chi Minh City, has become the top choice for families for short weekend trips due to its easy and quick transportation and diverse accommodation options. Meanwhile, the cool and temperate climate makes Da Lat a popular destination for tourists looking for a place to escape the heat.
