What interesting entertainment is offered to tourists in Vietnam? Entertainment in Vietnam Nha Trang for youth.

Coming to vacation in Vietnam, first of all, it is Nha Trangas the most popular city resort in vietnam... Town Nha Trang, by Vietnamese standards, quite small, "only" 390 thousand people.

The city itself Nha Trang received a second life in 2013, when the active development of the city with new hotel complexes began and multimillion-dollar cash flows from foreign investors began to flow here. Until this moment, Nha Trang was a large fishing village without active tourism development.

Although even in ancient times beaches of Nha Trang famous for the whole Vietnam - as the best places for the rest of the emperors and their entourage.

Nowadays, tourists can no longer be surprised by the presence of a good beach - now in the resort town “bread and circuses” must be present without fail.

What entertainment is there in Nha Trang

In this article we will try to figure out what entertainment is there in Nha Trang and how to find them for an ordinary tourist.

Restaurants and cafes

Most of all, there are restaurants and various cafes in Nha Trang. Sometimes it seems that all tourists come to Nha Trang just to satisfy their gastronomic preferences.

The next article will discuss the restaurants of Nha Trang, so we will not delve into the topic, but only highlight the main, most interesting cafes and restaurants of the city: La Mancha (Spanish restaurant with a fiery evening program), Louisiane Brewhouse (great restaurant on the seaside with its own brewery), Alpaca (a cozy, lamp-like restaurant with a homely atmosphere and chic coffee).

The Vietnamese themselves, by the way, also like to eat in cafes so as not to cook at home, but they prefer small, open, roadside cafes, with plastic chairs and tables.

And the Vietnamese are madly in love with drinking coffee, which is why in Nha Trang, on almost every corner, there are cafes with unpronounceable and not memorable Vietnamese names. In other words, not a single tourist has the slightest chance to leave Nha Trang hungry! :)

Diving and snorkeling

In Vietnam, diving is considered one of the cheapest in the world, so if you have a long-standing dream of scuba diving, then this desire may well come true in Nha Trang.

The main thing is that the weather is good, not stormy, and then the visibility will be excellent. The best place for diving is considered to be around Moon Island, and for snorkeling - the southern side of Hon Che Island (the island where Vinperl is located).

The price for two dives starts at $ 70 if you already have a PADI certificate and $ 85 if you don't. The place from where all boats with divers come out is the South Port, which is located right next to the Museum of Oceanography.

The most famous and long-term diving players in Nha Trang are Amigos divers and Fun divers... Both agencies are located on the third line of the European Quarter, opposite the Camellia Hotel.

It is best to buy dives from Russian-speaking guides, which are the above companies, so that the instructions before diving are as clear as possible.

The most complete and most accessible instruction is still carried out by the guys from Fun divers(by the way, tourists can use an exclusive 7% discountcalling alphaviet codeword when buying a tour from the guys from Fun divers), after such instruction, even people without any experience will have no questions at all and their dives will be as interesting and understandable as possible.

In the vicinity of Moon Island, there is something to see: there are colorful corals, and numerous exotic fish and other attributes of excellent underwater recreation.

SPA salons of Nha Trang

Vietnam, like any other Asian country, has always been famous for quality therapeutic massages. In Nha Trang, massage parlors are found on every corner, the number of them is off scale and exceeds all possible norms.

It is quite possible that there is not a single tourist who, by some miracle, would not have gone to a Vietnamese massage in Nha Trang. But how to choose the right massage parlor from such an abundance and variety ?!

In this matter, you need to be as collected as possible and try to take seriously the choice of a massage parlor in Nha Trang, since, first of all, your health is at stake.

The most important deception lies in the famous MASSAGE FOR THE BLIND... The legendary massage for the blind really exists in Vietnam, but only schools for this type of massage are located exclusively in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh, and the pupils of these schools live and work only in these cities.

There are NO certified massage centers for the blind in Nha Trang, so cut off massage parlors with similar names right away.

Also, in Nha Trang there are quite a few massage parlors with a dubious reputation - these are places where, in addition to massage, compassionate Vietnamese masseuses will offer you additional services for money that are not directly related to massage.

Such massage parlors can be easily calculated by the appearance of the masseuses themselves - they will be in very short skirts. Another problem of massage parlors in Nha Trang is theft.

You need to learn, once and for all, that you shouldn't take big money and valuable things with you for a massage. This rule, of course, does not apply to all massage parlors, but nevertheless.

And even if you were able to find a more or less acceptable massage parlor in Nha Trang, this does not mean that you were able to get rid of the main problem - incompetent masseuses. It just so happened that motley Vietnamese from different parts of the country come to Nha Trang to work.

Naturally, not all of them will have certificates of completion of their studies in the relevant educational institutions, where they teach different types of massage.

Therefore, in many massage parlors of Nha Trang, massage is done incorrectly, and even more often there are cases when masseuses talk on the phone or among themselves during the massage, or even go about their own business along the way.

Also, the main drawback of most massage parlors in Nha Trang is dirty massage tables and the same towels. Agree, it's a dubious pleasure to lie in the mud and breathe in "Vietnamese scents."

"WHAT TO DO in this case" - you ask?

Especially for you, we have collected a small rating of the best massage salons in Nha Trang with an unblemished reputation: Tropic Spa (located on the third street of the European quarter, opposite the store Moonmilk), Sen Spa (located in the market area Cho Dam, not far from the hotel TTC, ex. Michelia), and Manu spa with Russian staff (located near the hotel Poseidon, between the second and third streets of the European quarter).

Especially, I would like to highlight the massage parlor Tropic Spa - it is in this place, before the massage, that you will be given a foot bath with ginger and lemon, and after the massage they will wipe you with hot towels and treat you with a special powder so that you do not slip anywhere on the street after the massage.

IN Tropic Spa masseuses work only with special education in this area, they have all the necessary documents and certificates, and in this massage parlor there is always cleanliness and order.

Also, you can use exclusive discount to visit a massage parlor Tropic Spa at 5%, for this at reception you need to name the code word Alphaviet and enjoy any kind of discounted massage.

Mud springs

Within the city of Nha Trang, there are three places where you can relax your body and soul, and even get medical treatment. The farthest resort from the center of Nha Trang is the park 100 Egs.

It is close to the hotel Diamond Bay resort and occupies an impressive territory. Inside the park it is very green and there are places where you can take a walk: a rope park, a mini-zoo and the territory of the mud bath itself. Prices: above average.

In the area of \u200b\u200bthe Ponagar Cham towers, in the north of Nha Trang, immediately behind the second bridge over the Kai River, there is another mud bath Thap ba Is the oldest establishment of its kind in the city, but the cheapest.

I-resort is located in about the same place as Thap ba, but you need to enter the territory of this mud bath in another place, in the area of \u200b\u200bthe Northern Market. I-resort - the newest mud baths, divided into several zones: from economy to super VIP, here you can find herbal baths, a small water park, which is perfect for children, a lot of mineral water pools, and, of course, the mud baths themselves.

Entrance cost to I-resort starts from 150,000 VND per person (depending on what additional procedures you want to attend on the territory of the mud baths).

It is best to get to all of the above mud baths by taxi, or from some hotels in Nha Trang you can take a free shuttle to mud baths - check the information at the reception of your hotel.

In addition to all of the above mud baths, in Nha Trang there is another institution of a similar plan, it is located in the very center of the city, on the territory of the hotel Galina (Galina mud bath & spa), however, there is no need to talk about a large green area with many swimming pools, but there are mud baths and fairly democratic prices.

Night clubs

In Nha Trang, as in the rest of Vietnam, all establishments close early enough, and the Vietnamese themselves prefer to go to bed early in order to get up at dawn and have time to do exercises near the sea.

The Vietnamese have got used to this way of life for many years, and even with the onset of the 21st century, they have not changed at all. But, nevertheless, this does not mean at all that there is no nightlife in Nha Trang.

Yes, this very "nightlife" is not in full swing, as, for example, in Thai Pattaya, but still some establishments in Nha Trang are open until two or three in the morning. The most popular nightclub in Nha Trang is Zima (located on the waterfront, directly opposite the hotel Havana).

IN Zima club you can come off in the company of visiting tourists and local Russians to club hits and an incendiary show from professional go-go dancers.

But not by one club Zima Nha Trang is one - you can always visit such establishments at home, but the following establishment is simply a must-visit - Skylight (located right on the roof of the hotel Havana, the roof elevator is located on the left side of the entrance at the very end of the corridor.

Entrance fee - 150,000 VND). IN Skylight it is only worth going for one reason - the fantastic view that opens up from above, bewitches and attracts attention.

From a bird's eye view, you look at night Nha Trang in a completely different way - as if it were not Vietnam at all, but some Miami or Dubai. The next nightclub opened quite recently in Nha Trang, but has already managed to loudly declare itself and attract attention.

This night club is called The rabbit hole and is located right in the restaurant Story on the embankment (Gorky Park). In this nightclub, resident DJs from other countries perform every weekend, and the powerful sound will make even the dead dance :).

The rabbit hole divided into several convenient zones where different music can be played simultaneously! Entrance to this establishment costs from 100,000 VND which is used as a deposit per bar.

Well, and the last place in our rating is a small bar-night club Rooftoplocated on the 5th floor of the restaurant Yens, in the European quarter. This nightclub is quite small in size, but nevertheless, strikes with its unobtrusive, almost "home" and friendly atmosphere.

Rooftop - a favorite place for foreigners. I would also like to highlight a few places that do not qualify for the title of a night club, but nevertheless, they work late and are always pleasant to visit, both for tourists and locals.

Hookah bars The temple and The cloud are close to each other, in the area of \u200b\u200bthe hotel Chelsea and the Rooftop nightclub, respectively. The hookahs in these establishments are always at the highest level, the accompanying drinks and the atmosphere are also at the same level, and in The cloud also the cuisine is wonderful.

Leisure

In Nha Trang, you can not only lie on the beach and wander around restaurants in search of cheap seafood. In Nha Trang, you can easily do outdoor activities and even learn to ride a board or kite.

Surfing schools are located on the famous Bai Dai Beach, which is located between Cam Ranh Airport and the serpentine leading to Nha Trang.

There are always more waves in this area and there are all the necessary conditions to ride the sea on a board. As for kiting, this entertainment can always be found in windy weather on the main beach of Nha Trang in the area Sailing club.

In order to stand on the board, you can use the services of the following companies: Advaita, CoCo surf, The Shak surf school and many other companies in Nha Trang.

Also, canyoning tours are regularly organized from Nha Trang (Ba Ho waterfalls near Nha Trang and Datanla waterfalls in the vicinity of Dalat) and excellent ATV tours in the direction of Hon Ba Mountain and Alexander Yersin's summer residence.

If you are interested in any entertainment in Nha Trang or you have questions about organizing a vacation in Nha Trang, we will always be happy to answer your questions!

Alexey Bessmertny

It attracts not only connoisseurs of history and ancient temples, but also young people who want to get acquainted with the culture of an unusual country and have fun with the national flavor. So what to do in the resorts of Vietnam if you are in your 20s and full of energy? Certainly not to lie on the beach all day, because there are a lot of options!

Youth Day in Vietnam

Vietnam celebrates Youth Day on March 26. True, if you tune in to all kinds of shows and entertainment dedicated to this event, then in vain. As a tourist, you most likely will not even notice anything, because this holiday has communist roots, therefore it is celebrated only in the appropriate environment - youth party organizations and trade unions.

However, this does not prevent the youth of Vietnam from having a fun March evening - going out with friends to nature or to clubs.

Leisure

Numerous beaches of Vietnam in recent years have become a real Mecca for fans of surfing, because you can maneuver between dozens of islands all year round - there is always a beach with excellent sun and wind.

At the main resort of choice for divers, Nha Trang, you can find everything you need for scuba diving. Experienced divers can book a cheap transfer here to nearby islands, and beginners can get to a diving school or rent equipment.

Those who are far from the world of marine entertainment are offered numerous excursions to the parks and caves of Vietnam, both by bus and by bike. After all, the nature here is so exotic that even a walk in the city park becomes an endless series of discoveries. By the way, if during your trip you stumbled upon wild-growing fruits, even if "exactly the same as in the hotel", do not rush to try them - many tourists made the wrong choice and spent the rest of their vacation in their own room.

Nightlife

Lovers of relaxation until the morning should go not to the capital, but to Ho Chi Minh City. In the main city of the Vietnamese south, on the banks of the Saigon River, you can find any nightlife, so young people who know a lot about entertainment come here.

It is interesting that in addition to large discos with famous DJs and huge halls, there are many private parties here, which are quite easy to get to. As a rule, Europeans are welcome here, and the organizers of these events will persistently invite you, even if you are completely unfamiliar.

Cultural rest (not museums)

Probably nowhere else is there such a number of interesting and varied excursions as on the islands of Vietnam.

If you are an animal lover, head to the Wale and Hon Tam Islands for a turtle farm and monkey settlement. True, on the second one you should be extremely careful: if the animal finds something interesting, it will take it away from you just with lightning speed, and it’s good if it turns out to be a bag of chips. By the way, if an animal extorts food from you, give it back, otherwise it will go on the offensive and can give you many unpleasant minutes. Well, why do you need a fight with a monkey and rabies vaccinations?

For those who want to see the underwater world, but do not like to dive, going on a boat with a transparent bottom, which costs $ 2-3 and lasts more than an hour, is suitable. Such excursions are most often offered on Hon Mukh Island. If you are resting in the Hanoi region, then you should definitely visit Halong Bay - there you will find natural wonders and interesting legends.

A huge number of excursions also go from the resort town of Sapa. The most popular are trips to the silver Thas Bas waterfall, an underground cave palace and a bamboo forest, where, according to locals, you can meet magical creatures and ghosts.

If you have not yet decided exactly which type of vacation is more interesting for you, do not book one hotel for the entire vacation, but travel around this amazing country, believe me, every Vietnamese village can leave an unforgettable memory of itself.

Going to Vietnam, do not think that you will have a rest in the company of calm good-natured "little people" who, apart from growing rice, know nothing. In recent years, Vietnam has become a tourist destination. And although the choice of entertainment here is not as extensive as in neighboring Thailand or Malaysia, the usual tennis, scooter riding, diving in Vietnam, water skiing will make your vacation rich and memorable.

And there is something that can surprise even avid tourists. For example, playing golf. The country has many large, well-laid, clean fields for this leisurely sport. And this kind of vacation is pretty cheap. I must say that every year there is more and more entertainment in Vietnam, which attracts new masses of tourists and raises the country's economy.

Nightlife in Vietnam is not as hectic and unrestrained as in neighboring Thailand.

Most of the bars and clubs are quiet after midnight. And all because the country has a ban on nightlife after 24:00. But if you wish, you can find several nightlife establishments working around the clock. You just need to know them! Most of these places are in the capital cities, in Saigon and in Nha Trang.

In the city of Hanoi, there is a club with the funny name Funky Monkey. It is located in the center and is open from 22:00 to 5:00 am. In the club you can have a good time, play billiards. Excellent dancers will cheer you up. Tourists love this place and the dance floor is almost always full. The appearance of the bar symbolizes the name of the club. Hanging from the ceiling are small neon cubes with monkey faces, they brighten up the wait for a cocktail. Upon your order, pizza will be prepared right here, and not just served preheated in the microwave. The staff of the club is young, energetic and pleasant. The music plays here different: from world famous hits to relaxing compositions (styles of Trance, Techno, Funk, House). If you are not a gourmet in music, but just come to relax and have fun, you will definitely love the Funky Monkey Club.

Another interesting place in Hanoi is R & R Tavern. This is a club for rock fans, located on the shore of the lake, which allows you not only to enjoy music, but also to relax alone with nature. Americans love this place very much. The Vietnamese have learned their ability to have fun for a long time. The club plays only live music, the atmosphere is comfortable and cozy. The bartender does not have time to fill the guests' mugs with foamy beer, and the number of people in the hall is growing. People united by a common interest rest here, so drinking beer with a performer is not uncommon. The night at the bar flies by! Don't expect a frenzied European breakaway from the Vietnamese nightlife! It's more of a hippie-style vacation.

Like Thailand, sex tourism is thriving in Vietnam. More and more tourists from the West are visiting the country for this very purpose. But in Vietnam, everything is presented more culturally. Nobody will push you with indecent offers if you do not look for it yourself.

As for interesting excursions, let's say about the trip to Catba Bay. This is the largest island in the bay, on which a real national park was built! Monkeys-francois, wild boars, more than 20 species of birds, deer live here. Unusual entertainment for tourists - renting a small boat and walking along the lake in search of the Vietnamese counterpart of the Loch Ness Monster! Fishermen claim that a huge scary creature really lives near Halong Bay.

If you are traveling with children, take them to the water puppet theater. This entertainment was invented by peasants living in the Red River Delta near Hanoi. The dolls were made from the unsinkable sung fig tree and set in flooded rice fields or ponds. The theme of the performances is different: "Catching foxes", "Training ducks", "Dance of the Phoenix". These are sketches of the daily life of peasants or historical events, religious rituals and myths.

The extraordinary benevolence of the Vietnamese attracts more and more tourists from all over the world to the country every year! And even Americans are increasingly visiting Vietnam, although they previously fought here, shedding their own and other people's blood. Even the veterans of the Vietnam War are welcomed by the hosts warmly and kindly.

Hello friends! Today's article will be small, but very useful for those who are going to Vietnam. Note, I said "to Vietnam" and not specifically to Dalat, because if you are going to Vietnam, Dalat you just have to, just have to visit! Among other entertainments for young people, Dalat gives the opportunity to ride something that people don't ride in ordinary life: a funicular, a bobsleigh track and ... an ostrich! This is not a typo: on it, a leggy, feathered giant.

3 cool things to do in Vietnam for young people: going to Da Lat for adrenaline

In order to get to Dalat and have fun riding, you don't have to come there on your own. Most tourists come to Dalat during an excursion from Nha Trang. Therefore, just clarify which skiing is included in the program.

Entertainment in Vietnam for young people: the best panorama of Dalat opens from the cable car.

Funicular ride in Dalat

The Dalat cable car is visible from many places in the city. Personally, I never rode a funicular, and Zhenya rode only once in his distant childhood in Sochi. Consider that you did not ride either. Therefore, of course, we could not miss the funicular in Dalat. The road passes over the Dalat forests and lakes, sometimes rises and sometimes "dives" down. The beauty on both sides is incredible! The cabin goes quietly, almost does not react to the wind; there is a small window through which you can take photos.

Do you know what "scary beautiful" is? This is the cable car in Dalat!)))

The road leads to beautiful pagoda thienwien, near which, as usual in Vietnam, there is a wonderful park, a little further - a pine forest and a lake. A great place to spend the whole day in nature.

Price: round-trip travel costs VND 70,000 per person (about $ 3.3 per person). One way - 50,000 VND.

Working hours: from 9:00 to 12:30 and from 14:30 to 16:30.

Bobsleighing in Dalat

The first time we wanted to ride a bob was before our winter trip to the Czech Republic. Alas, the Špindlerv Mlyna bobsleigh track, which had been looked after in advance, did not work that day. And here, it turns out, in Dalat there is a bobsleigh track, which is located in park near Datanla waterfall... Great, let's go buy tickets soon!

The bobsleigh track at Datanla Falls is one of the few places in Dalat where you speak to an employee in English, and he answers you in Russian. As if you are not in distant Vietnam, but in.

Controlling the bob is simple: pull the lever backward - slow down, push forward - accelerate. There are Break signs along the track, which means "Brake". The descent is fantastic with lots of greenery and flowers around. We liked it so much that we took a ride twice.

Price: downhill travel costs VND 40,000 per person, round trip costs VND 50,000 per person. It's about two dollars.

Extreme entertainment in Vietnam for young people is very inexpensive. So much so that we decided to ride the bobsleigh track in Dalat twice.

Ostrich riding in Dalat

I didn't even know that there are such entertainments for young people in Vietnam! But as soon as we entered prenn waterfall park, immediately saw the sign "Riding an ostrich". At first we thought it was for kids - we underestimated the ostrich!

The ostrich is healthy. On his back he has a saddle, you sit down - and drove the inhabitant of the savannah through the aviary. Somewhere in the center, a Vietnamese uncle controls that everything goes well, but neither you nor the ostrich cares about him. The ostrich swears while running, pushes the ostriches sideways in the aviary and does not show the slightest signs of fatigue. Even when he rides adult Russian men. His feathers are hard and rough, to the touch like the wool of a large animal (we know).

There are comparatively few cultural centers with regular performances for entertainment in Vietnam. Most often they are given for television or during the holidays of the lunar calendar.

For the guests of the country, the water puppet theater (mua roi nuoc) can be attractive. We recommend watching the performance in Hanoi, at the Kim Dong Theater (57 Dinh Tien Hoang) or - not so grandiose, but also very impressive - in Hue, at the Century Hotel (49 Le Loi).

Royal Court Music, or Hue, can be heard at the Royal Hue Theater in the Citadel and every evening at Saigon Marin Hotel (30 Le Loi) or Tropical Garden Restaurant (27 Chu Van An).

Entertainment and nightlife in Vietnam

Until 1990, there was no nightlife in Vietnam in the generally accepted understanding of it, but then the situation began to change.

Until 1975, Saigon was a very fun city with bars, nightclubs and girls on every corner. All this disappeared after the victory of the communists, but 15 years of Stalin's regime did not change the Saigon people much, and our Days in Ho Chi Minh City are full of nightclubs, discos and karaoke bars.

Hanoi has always been more conservative than its southern neighbor, but the capital is more fun these days, although the changes are slower here. Nightlife in Hanoi revolves around food - some very fine dining restaurants serve first-class Vietnamese, French and Chinese cuisine - and small talk in cafes. Other parts of the country are opening up quickly to nightlife too.

On weekends in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, you can watch an exhibition of youth culture.

Motorbike cruises along trendy Dong Khoi Street in Ho Chi Minh City or around Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi have now become a regular part of middle-class youth recreation.

Entertainment in karaoke bars is extremely popular among Vietnamese. They also love to dance. There are both clubs for fans of ballroom dancing, especially waltz and mamba, and modern discos, where not only locals, but also tourists dance to the latest world hits.

These small, inexpensive bars serve exclusively men (although they won't mind the presence of Western women) and serve fresh beer at an astonishingly low price. They are visited by representatives of all strata of Vietnamese society - from businessmen to cycle rickshaws, so here you can chat with locals to your heart's content, the only sad thing is that beer usually ends early and bars close at 20.00 or 21.00.
