Notably, this is the 8th time Vietnam has been awarded the title of ‘Asia’s Leading Destination’ and the 4th time to receive the title of ‘Asia’s Leading Heritage Destination,’ continuing to recognize the appeal of Vietnam as a destination at one of the prestigious awards in the international tourism industry.

Not only being honored at the national level, many localities and destinations in Vietnam continue to make their mark in important categories of the 2026 World Travel Awards, showing that the appeal of Vietnamese tourism is increasingly diverse, spreading from major cities and event centers to natural, cultural, and heritage destinations.
Hanoi was awarded the title ‘Asia’s Leading City Destination for Short Breaks.’ Ho Chi Minh City continued to assert its strength in urban tourism by receiving two titles: ‘Asia’s Leading Event & Festival Destination’ and ‘Asia’s Leading Business Tourism Destination.’ The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism was honored as ‘Asia’s Leading Local Tourism Authority.’
At the rising destinations, Son La province has two representatives honored: Ta Xua with the title ‘Asia’s Leading Emerging Destination’ and Moc Chau with the title ‘Asia’s Leading Nature Destination’.
