In this segment, the King Street Chronicle searches the globe for destinations to highlight.  For this edition, we are traveling to Vietnam. Vietnam is located in Southeast Asia and is known for its busy cities, beautiful beaches, and ancient temples.  Last year,

Vietnam hosted 15.5 million international tourists, according to vietnam-briefing.com.
Among the best things to do in Vietnam is visiting the Royal Tomb of Khai Dinh King.  The Vietnamese people built the tomb for the twelfth emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty.  It contains beautiful architecture and rich history in remembrance of Emperor Khai Dinh, and it took 11 years to be built.

Additionally, visiting the famous Ho Chi Minh City is a must.  The city is bustling with life and has an important history for the role it played in the Vietnam War.  From local markets to cathedrals, Ho Chi Minh City is a popular tourist destination offering something for everyone.

Another popular attraction is the Golden Bridge, located near Da Nang, Vietnam.  Also called the “hand bridge” for its architecture, this pedestrian bridge offers sweeping views of Vietnam’s landscape and is a must-see. 
Destination KSC includes a video montage of parts of Vietnam and locations mentioned above.
