Introducing Vinh
Hurriedly rebuilt after its wartime devastation, Vinh is only now lifting off the mantle of concrete ugliness that has been its reputation over the last 30 years. Trees have been planted along its wide boulevards, new parks opened and the lakesides landscaped – injecting a much needed splash of green among the grey Stalinist patina. There’s still not a lot to detain a tourist for more than a day, but it’s becoming a more attractive option for breaking up the long journey between Hanoi and Hué. The capital of Nghe An province, it has a few almost-attractions nearby, including Ho Chi Minh’s birthplace Kim Lien and the beach resort of Cua Lo.
