10 camping spots from South to North for 2/9 vacation
Nguyen Thanh Tuan, 36 years old, living in Ho Chi Minh City, recommends camping spots for the holiday, based on his past summer camping experience across Vietnam.
According to Thanh Tuan, before starting camping, you should choose at least two backup points for each place, because if it’s not okay, you can go to another location nearby. In terms of supplies, Tuan often chooses a sturdy tent, as well as always carries the necessary items to suit the weather, which is both compact and adequate. Among the points passed, Tuan suggested 10 safe destinations, suitable for short trips, especially on the upcoming September 2 holiday.
1. Dau Tieng Lake (Tay Ninh)
Dau Tieng Lake borders Binh Duong and Tay Ninh, about 90 km from Ho Chi Minh City. This is a familiar camping site for young people in Ho Chi Minh City and neighboring provinces.

The scenery here is romantic towards Ba Den mountain. The advantage of this location is that it is close to Ho Chi Minh City, the road is easy to go, and the cost is economical.
