Vietnam and 31st SEA Games
Welcome to 31st SEA Games in Vietnam!
Vietnam is proud to be the host of the 31st SEA Games “For a stronger South East Asia” – an enormous event to restart culture, sports and tourism activities of the Southeast Asia post Covid-19. Vietnam is an exhilarating country to travel. Vibrant street life, exquisite food and epic landscapes await you here. A nation on the move, Vietnam balances cool urban culture with traditional values. In the cities, ancient pagodas squat just around the corner from sleek rooftop bars; and in the countryside, life still follows the rhythms of the rivers and the rice harvest. Another great reason to visit Vietnam is its diverse natural beauty. The capital of Hanoi is your gateway to the treasures of the north: spectacular mountains and bays studded with karsts. Smack in the centre, up-and-coming Danang gives you easy access to photogenic riverside towns, national parks and long, sandy beaches. In the south, Ho Chi Minh City will entice you with its captivating streets. Nearby, the water world of the Mekong Delta as well as islands big and small, are just waiting to be explored.
