Dining or KAREOKE!

by chefgrad

Major cities in Vietnam are filled with night clubs, but don't expect it to be anything like the night clubs back home. They almost always have a live performance and take it from me It's not an activity to repeat. All the singers are lame ricky martin/britney spears ripp offs. Though if you want a good laugh then all the best to ya! What I enjoyed most about the night Life in Vietnam was the restaurants -- to be specific "The Candle Light Cafe" in Nha Trang. The family run restaurant is very cosy and the food is amazing and the prices are just below average. none

The Rainbow Bar and the Sailing club are great spots in Nha Trang. It's where all the tourists go, which some people won't like, but me and my new friends had some really good nights there!The photo was taken after Ireland - Germany, the 1-1. Anything will do.

by Gypsy_Saskia

Allez Boo Bar in Ho Chi Minh is a good backpackers hangout. Food's good, beer's affordable. Staff is a bit moody, but the place itself is nice. Especially if you're a single traveller, it's a great place for meeting people.Good music, good location.

by crompton

We always went clubbing, almost every night. Singing, dancing, and just enjoying the company with a few jokes and beers. Always festive, the clubs never disappoint, by delivering a satisfying and ecstatic feeling that lasts for days.Ask your hotelier, or other patrons for the local fun spots. They are often hidden and hard to find for a novice. Visit at least one, again, for the experience. Most clubs accept almost any kind of casual dress, even boots.

by l_joo

Whatelse, this is what you need at night in Vietnam. It depends on what kind of peoples you are to enjoy what kind of nightlife. I don't know how to recommend any for VTers. I honestly not a nightlife expert when travel because I don't want to waist too much money to drink, smoke or ganjas or 'those'. I rather enjoy staying at my room writting my traveloques. I normally never go out after 11pm when I travel, I think because I was too tired street walking on daytime.

by kiwiwahine

Sidewalk Bars - Kindergarten furniture or deck chairs on the pavement.Tasty water (Local Beer) is served in two litre jugs with big hunks of ice!! Which results in even waterier beer. It comes with chilli rice crisps similar to poppadums.
