ĐÀ NẴNG — Based on booking and travel trends in the first eight months of this year, Kayak, a Singapore-based travel booking site, has named Đà Nẵng among the top 10 places of choice for Singaporean tourists.
The Indonesian city of Bandung, surrounded by the lush green Parahyangan mountains, topped the list. Indonesia’s Yogyakarta, Luzon Islands in the Philippines and Malaysia’s Kuching are some of the others in the list.
Việt Nam currently provides a reciprocal 30-day visa exemption for citizens of ASEAN member nations.
Along with Chinese and South Koreans, Singaporeans have been the biggest visitors to Đà Nẵng in recent years.
Last month Singapore’s Channel News Asia had included Đà Nẵng in a list of five “under the radar” destinations in South and Southeast Asia.
