Quite differently from European countries, because of the tropical basically climate, Vietnam has 2 main seasons: dry season & rainy season. From November to April (next year) is the ideal season for the traveler. The average year-round temperature is about 75oF (24oC). In addition, the dry season can also be divided into cool season from November to the next February and hot season from March to April. Tourists should protect themselves from sunburn during hot season. Try to avoid the rainy season from May to October when it rains a lot and sometimes the typhoons happen (often in the Central).

Vietnam transportation system is quite good in the whole. In terms of international transportation, there are a huge amount of flights from every country all over the world, especially from the Southeast Asia, and buses from neighboring countries, as well as the train from China and the ship from Cambodia.
