Vinh Moc Tunnels of Vietnam Among Undiscovered Spots in Asia

Hanoi, November 30, 2015 (Newswire.com) - As proudly reported by Vietnamvisa.hk, a local website of Vietnam-visa.com, which was designed to make it convenient for Hong Kong residents and citizens to reach Vietnam visa on arrival service, the US-based tourism website Thrillist has recently released the list of undiscovered spots in Asia and it is a great honor for Vietnam to have its Vinh Moc tunnels named in the list.  

According to the website, during the Vietnam War, villagers dug these tunnels by hand, desperate to hide from heavy bombing. There are kitchens, wells, and rooms here where families lived underground for years.

Located in Vinh Thach commune, Vinh Linh district, Quang Tri Province, the Vinh Moc tunnel is a steel fortress which helps Vinh Moc army and people fight against severe raids of the US troops in the war between 1965 and 1972.

As suggested by the website, today, along with the former Demilitarized Zone, the tunnels can be explored on guided tours

But before going, travelers are highly recommended to check their Vietnam visa requirement to make sure they will not be refused from entry to Vietnam if they don’t have a visa in case it is required.

All those who need a visa should notice that application for a Vietnam visa today is much easier. Vietnam embassy is no longer the only portal issuing visa for Vietnam. Today, the Vietnam Immigration Department also issues Vietnam visa which is called Vietnam visa on arrival. Users of this kind of visa only need to submit the online application form for Vietnam visa approval letter via a local travel agent and then get visa stamped onto passport upon their arrival at Vietnam airport.
