One of the oldest cultures in Southeast Asia, Vietnam has been influenced by Chinese, Khmer and Indian cultures, as well as French colonialism. Choosing to study here, immersed in a culture that dates back to 2000 BC, will expand your worldview and grow your confidence as a global citizen.
From the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An, a well-preserved ancient port, to savoring that first sip of pho (a Vietnamese soup dish that’s a staple), or exploring caves and tiny beaches in the breathtaking Bai Tu Long Bay, hiking in Cat Ba Island or taking a boat cruise down the Mekong Delta, Vietnam offers a rich array of activities.
Traveling around Vietnam is affordable with regular domestic flights from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, or the more leisurely train ride option, which is a great way to meet and converse with local families and avoid the traffic congestion on the main highways.
