Da Nang has recently been ranked the 7^th most attractive destination in Asia in 2013, whilst Ha Noi has risen to 5^th place, moving up one place from last year.  The results were from a vote by readers of Smart Travel Asia.  The awards ceremony will be held in Thailand’s Bangkok City later this month.

Ratings are based on the readers’ assessment of their experiences of the tourism products, feedback from their friends and colleagues, and the brand visibility in their browser which is a key item in a crowded online space.

Apart from the destinations, the magazine’s readers were also able to vote for the best hotels, resorts, airlines and airports in Asia.

Smart Travel Asia is the leading regional online travel magazine with over 1 million readers worldwide every year.
