The organisation hailed Vietnam for its beauty, rich culture, and delicious cuisine.
It reported that the peace index of Vietnam in 2024 is 1.745. The country’s crime index score of 41.8 and safety index score of 58.2 further reinforce its reputation as a safe place to visit.
It suggested that one of the safest and most famous places to visit in Vietnam is Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its limestone islands and emerald waters. “The bay is a popular destination for cruises and kayaking,” it said.
It added that another safe and popular destination is Hoi An, an ancient town known for its architecture, colourful lanterns, and food. The town’s compact size makes it a safe and easy place to explore on foot.
Vietnam’s capital, Hanoi, is also considered a famous destination among travellers, it concluded.
The ten countries honoured by Best Diplomats come under the spotlight due to their low crime rates, political stability, and secure environment.
Singapore claimed the first position in the list, followed by Japan and Bhutan.
