Vietnam ranks eighth in the recently released list. Laos is another Southeast Asian country in this list.
According to Wanderlust, in early 2023, the weather in Vietnam is quite pleasant, with only minor differences between the north and south.
This is also the time after Christmas, when there will be fewer visitors; thus, visitors will have the opportunity to experience the beauty of Vietnam more peacefully.
"You'll never get bored with Vietnam's varied cities: Hoi An, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Hue_ the perfect city for cycling enthusiasts," said Wanderlust.
Moreover, Wanderlust also pointed out the beautiful nature around every corner in Vietnam, from Ha Long Bay or Lan Ha Bay to Son Doong, the world's biggest cave.
