DEAR READERS,
The year 2017 is
bringing a rise
in tourism real
estate investment
to Vietnam.
Experts are offering essential
information and advice to
investors, helping them make
wise decisions. The "heat" of
this trend radiates right from
our cover, which displays the
Novotel Villas Phu Quoc, one of
the exquisite condotel projects
in Phu Quoc.
Villas and condotels offer an
ideal leisure environment for
those who love to enjoy life.
Opportunities to travel and
relax are becoming increasingly
available, and not only to the
upper class. The middle class
can now own and invest in villas
and condotels. Investors should
take account of possibilities to
enjoy vacations while making a
profit from renting or reselling
villas and condotels. We address
leisure real estate including
villas and condotels in this
issue's Featured column.
In the Travel and Discovery
section, Travellive invites you
to join an adventure to Pakistan
and the magnificent snowy
Karakoram mountain range.
Our next destination is the
famous Byundar Flower Valley
in northern India. English
explorer Thomas Hardwicke
stated that: "This is the most
beautiful valley in the Himalayas
that I have ever seen".
We wish you a happy, energetic
vacation.

FORTUNA HOTEL HANOi
* 6B Lang Ha, Ba Dinh, Hanoi
* Tel: 024 3831 3333
* Website: www.fortuna.vn

Nowaday, many local and international
groups and companies are willing to engage
in CSR efforts aimed to solve Vietnam's
social issues as well as making the country
grow in a sustainable way. Fortuna Hotel
Hanoi takes a lot of efforts to provides
various CSR activities in categorising
sustainable development not as following the
trend but with the belief that the sustainable
development represents an economic yet
postmodern imperative for future besides
many other ethical reasons.
Charitable initiatives
Never as a burden, among many CSR
initiatives that Fortuna Hanoi is taking,
charitable is, in reverse, believed to be a
lift to the business. There was a time in
Vietnam when CSR was mistaken as just
charity and such burden or a waste of time.
But from the very start, charitable activities
have always been included in the Fortuna's
yearly business plan with the effort from the
hotel management to make the activities
annual and to involve as many employees as
possible.
Fortuna Hanoi has two annual charity drives,
one is in the beginning and the other is in
the middle of the year. Both are aiming to
the the underprivileged people, mostly are
the elder ones who are almost all the time
overlooked and the younger ones who are
the bright future of the society. The charity
idea is very clear and customized for each
group of people who receive our support.
We take initiatives as building school with
proper facilities for kids in the remote area
while for the lonesome old people, we try to
warm up their heart with ideas of self-made
food, presents and activities in order to
make them feel belonging and involved.
We also continuously participate in many
external charitable activities as venue
sponsor and all activities are very selective
to make sure we are doing the right thing to
the right one.
Last year at the Inauguration Ceremony of
a primary school in Na Tuom (Ha Giang),
Mr. Roger Chng, Fortuna Hotel's General
Director stated that "With this new
education facility, we hope to contribute a
small part to improve the future and living
standards of the underprivileged students.
We will continue to support the genuine
needs of the underprivileged with the desire
to improve society".
Beyond charity
We believe that CSR is not only for the sake
of ethical reasons but it also can bring longterm
benefits such as improving reputations
and boosting productivity. Yet we never take
CSR as "just making a donation".
At Fortuna Hanoi, beside applying
techniques to manager energy saving and
using environmental friendly facilities, guests
are, by all means, encouraged to reduce
energy usage.
Fortuna Hanoi also participates or
even self-hosts many events to support
enhancing awareness about social issues
such as Run for Children, Earth Hour, Tree
Planting Day... "We believe in the impact it
extends to every people around than the
contribution of the event itself". - said Mr.
Albert, General Manager of Fortuna Hanoi.
We also proud to say that all employees in
Fortuna are treated the same way we treat
our guests, with commitment, care, respect
and a very fair compensation and benefit
policies. Essential training courses have been
holding externally, internally and interdepartment
in order to ensure employees
development that they are deserved to be
invested in.
A hope for a better society
To admit, corporate social responsibility can
be viewed as a big challenge because it is
difficult for a brand or business to implement
wellness and sustainable initiatives without
being seen as trying too hard, exploiting
a situation, appearing self-serving or even
inauthentic. Yet we hold a strong belief that
as long as we truly focus on delivering the
best service to our guests and the wellness
to the society, people will appreciate the
effort and hopefully, they will have a more
positive lifestyle.
"If what you do doesn't make any difference
to your clients, then you should really dig
deeper whether or not you should invest
into the project anymore. But people care
about things and efforts, and at times, your
business should too" - said Mr. Albert.

Book
recommendation:
nobody's Boy
Nobody's Boy by French
writer Hector Malot is not
a new work, but it is worth
reading for readers of all
ages. The story is about
Remi, a boy with no parents
or relatives. Remi travels
with an animal circus and
later leads that circus around
France. At first he works
under the mentorship of a
man named Vitali, and he
later branches off and seeks
independence.

CEG Music Festival
2017
The CEG Music Festival 2017 (CMF
2017) will take place from July 29 to
August 6. It promises a professional
art playground and a series of art
activities. CEG Music Festival 2017
is a music platform for all young
people as well as a place to seek
new musical talent. The program
was founded in 2012 as a precursor
to the CEG Piano Festival. Through
three seasons, the program has
become a venue for aspiring young
musicians across the country. After
a two year hiatus, the festival has
returned, with notable changes.
Participants are no longer limited to
playing piano but now can audition
with other instruments, including the
guitar, violin, and ethnic instruments.
They can also sing pop music
or audition as a band. For more
information, please visit the website
www.cegfestival.vn.

An exhibition of redlacquered
woodwork
This exhibition offers viewers an
opportunity to view and contemplate
nearly 100 documents and redlacquered
woodworks, including rare
and precious pieces that are being
presented to the public for the first
time. Some of the works date back
to the Le and Nguyen Dynasties
(17 th - early 20 th century), the peak of
lacquer making. The exhibits contain
varied designs and patterns created
with sophisticated techniques. The
works show a glimpse of each

photo exhibit
This two month outdoor exhibition showcases 40 photos by Hoi An based
photographer Rähahn, who wanted to display Vietnam's rich cultural values. His
portraits of old women and children represent Vietnam's ethnic groups, even the
smallest groups, such as the O Du (396 people in 2009) and the Ro Mam (436 people in
2009). It took him three years to get access and permission to photograph the Ro Mam in
their remote village. The characters in his photos wear traditional dress, symbolizing their
long-standing customs and habits.
Visiting time: 8 am - 9 pm, Free admission

Dunkirk is an upcoming war film that recreates a famous historical event. Set during
World War II, it depicts the Dunkirk evacuation that took place in France between May
26 and June 4, 1940. In the movie, thousands of allied soldiers are surrounded by the
German Army on the beaches of Dunkirk, fighting a fierce battle and facing the threat of
annihilation. Is there any hope of survival or a way back home?
Dunkirk is scheduled to be released on July 21, 2017 in nationwide CGV cinemas.

AND... LOVE
Eating Pizza
Pizza is one of those dishes that cannot be absent from summer afternoon gatherings. You must remember the hit
movie "Eat, Pray & Love" in which the main character travels to Naples, the world's most famous pizza place. The shot
of actress Julia Roberts devouring the pizza at L'Antica Pizzeria Da Michele must have made food lovers "salivate"!
In 1905, pizzaiuolo (pizza maker, also known as pizzaioli) Gennaro Lombardi was thirteen years old. That's when he
opened his first pizza delivery shop at 53 1/2 Spring Street, Little Italy in New York. Few expected it would turn out
to be the starting point of the pizza journey around the world. The two most popular pizzas are the pizza Napoletana
(from Napoli) and the modern pizza, a variant of the pizza Napoletana, combined with the Italian Queen, the
Margherita pizza.
56
It is said that the pizza originated from the Greeks - masters of baking artistry, who baked pieces of flour in hot stone 1000
years ago. However, it was the Italians who perfected the recipe. When Queen Margherita Teresa Giovanni, wife of King
Umberto I of Italy, arrived in Napoli in 1889, they prepared for her a special pizza resembling the colors of the Italian

round because shape is a secondary factor. The professional
pizzaioli usually rotates the pizza in the air, which is known as
pizzaioli acrobatici. The Italian also have the no-knead method for
making pizza crust. They thoroughly mix the dough with yeast,
then thoroughly brew the dough to make gluten fibers in the
mixture (which is usually done by kneading).
Pizza recipe is very simple; therefore, what decides the
quality of the pizza is the ingredients and how it's made.
Ingredients that take a long time to bake such as cheese,
bacon, salami... are baked together with the dough.
Fast-cooking ingredients such as eggs, squid and
shrimp can be added halfway. If adding these
ingredients too early, they will be hardened, the
eggs dried and seafood chewy. Raw ingredients
such as vegetables, basil, tomato and rocket are
added last.
Pizza seems to be a simple dish, but in fact it is
extremely complicated and diverse, with thousands
of different types of processing: pizzaret (a kind of
muffin), pizza-bagel, sweet pizza.
This summer, why don't you try creating your own pizza

flag including red (tomato), white (mozzarellafior di latte) and
green (basil). Pizza Margherita has since then become the
typical pizza of Napoli, following the footprints of migrants to
the United States in the early 20 th century.
If you observe, you'll notice that most Italian chefs start learning
baking, rice cooking and pizza making right in their family
kitchens. They maintain and promote their grandmothers' and
mothers' traditional recipes long before bringing these recipes
around the world. Therefore, Italian chefs are famous for
being artisan chefs since their dishes are always full of regional
flavors.
Italian traditional pizza is handmade from the moment of flour
mixing to flatting the pizza for baking. They do not use flour
rollers because this break bubbles in the dough and harden the
pizza after baked. Italian artisan pizza is not usually perfectly

Second homes
A condo hotel, or "condotel",
is legally considered a
condominium, but it is operated
as a hotel, offering short term
rentals. Unlike traditional
hotels, villas and condotels
are equipped with kitchens,
cooking utensils, living rooms,
and washing machines, helping
the space feel like home. You
do not have worry about eating
at expensive restaurants during
peak travel season.
Villa and condotel resorts
offer privacy for honeymoons
and the amenities to perfect
a family vacation. Families
especially love the 3-4 bedroom
villas nestled into luxurious
green villas. The condotels
offering panoramic views are
popular with those looking
for a romantic spot. Villas and
condotels offer luxury family
vacations right in your house.
Villas and condotels are more
attractive than apartments in
big cities, as their guests can
enjoy 5-star luxury amenities
and services, including
a swimming pool, gym,
entertainment club, and 24/7
room service. Condotel owners
also receive assistance from
professional managers who
take responsibility for property
upkeep. Moreover, owners have
the right to rent or sell their
properties to make a profit.
Understanding these
advantages, many upper and
middle class members own
"second home" villas and
condotels. This is popular
throughout the world, especially
in England, France, America,
Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia,
and Singapore.

"Condotel model is attractive both for buyers and for developers.
However, this model also contains underlying risk relating to operation
and guarantee return."
➠ The intense competition in Vietnam condotel market has lead to a very popular choice of
offering guaranteed return in order to incentivize sales. Currently, the guaranteed return offered
in Vietnam is considerably higher compared to Thailand and Bali, where developers typically
offer 7% guaranteed return. These guaranteed products become more risky for buyers when less
experienced developers enter into large scale projects with an inadequate amount of equity or
not supported by any bank.
➠ In addition, the majority of the current products are guaranteed only by an SPV created
specifically for the project and only in certain cases, the guaranteed returns are backed by a
bank. In case the guaranteed return is higher than the achieved cash flow, developers will be
obligated to fund additional capital during the guaranteed period in order to deliver on their
promises to purchasers. In some case, the product is not well planned by developers, which are
more focusing on the timing and starting sale earlier, without a truly understanding on the type of
development and business characteristics.
➠ The condotel model in Asia, with fewer regulations compared to more developed countries,
allows developers to reduce both the equity investment and loan by rising additional financing
through the units pre-sale process. In "theory" this model would facilitate financing, it could
lead to additional development risks, mainly related to the high dependability on pre-sale and
dependency on collections of payment from buyers.
➠ This condotel model could be attractive both for buyers and for developers but need to be
very well planned by developers and need lot of carefully analysis before being implemented.
Buyers also need to understand the product characteristics and sales policy.
An attractive
investment channel
Sometimes prospective
condotel and villa buyers
are told to "pay a onetime
price now, and buy
the future". Owners are
classified into two main groups. The first
group is investors who buy condotels
to make a profit, which is likely to have
a quick payback. Like an apartment,
a condotel also can sell at a profit.
The second group of owners includes
businessmen and the upper and middle
classes, who buy or rent condotels to
enjoy long holidays in a comfortable
house at a reasonable cost.
In America and some vacation paradises
such as Costa Rica, Bali, and Pattaya,
villas and condotels are in high demand,
even during the project period. Owners
often rent out their property for the first
ten to twenty years. After that they can
enjoy a comfortable life in their villas
or condotels, relaxing in the clean and
natural environment.
Although owners can hire out their
villas or condotels, they often authorize
a management board to take advantage
of business opportunities. America's
major hotel brands, including Starwood,
Hilton, Marriott, and Ritz-Carlton,
have participated in villa and condotel
business as the demand for this type of
real estate has risen. This model prevails
in tourist cities such as Las Vegas.
The Tripadvisors website has many
comments from tourists appreciating
villas and condotels, regarding them as
wonderful vacation spots.
According to Wealth Daily's statistics,
the apartment market increased only
0.5% in 2014-2015 in America due to
the economic recession, but the condotel
market still increased 7%. In Asia, the
years 2015-2016 enjoyed a boom in
tourism real estate, especially in the
coastal regions and islands of Phuket
and Pattaya (Thailand), Bali (Indonesia),
and Manila and Boracay (Philippines).

➠ If investors guarantee to share the profit of 9%-12%/
year, you are able to get the payback after 8 - 10 years. If
the investors have been investing in other products, which
are managed by some international five-star management
groups such as CEO Group, Sungroup and BIM, the
payback time will be shortened.
- Some new investors are often sponsored by some banks to
take the belief of customers. However, in this case, the cost
of products will be higher.
➠ With a hospitality property, its house ownership
certificate is not as important as a prestigious investor and
his guarantee of profit.
➠ The investment rate will be higher at some potential
tourism areas, where the government pays money for the
infrastructure such as road systems, airports and bridges. In
2017, among three special economic zones, including Phu
Quoc, Van Don and Van Phong, Phu Quoc is believed to
be the first zone rising in 2020 thanks to its free tax policy,
synchronous infrastructure and nature all year round. Super
projects in this area have been invested and operated by
big groups such as Vingroup, Sungroup and CEO group
this year. Especially, Sonasea Condotel & Villas Phu Quoc
under CEO Group with 600 condotels opened in July.

"My family likes travelling a lot, so we decided
to invest in a condotel. With this comfortable
"second home," we can have a good time
together by the sea whenever we want. We
have more opportunities to enjoy long holidays,
fresh and delicious seafood parties, or intimate
BBQ parties on the beach. We no longer
have to worry about booking rooms, especially
during peak travel season. We can also make
a profit by renting out the condotel when we
are not using it."
Citadines Ha Long
A neW WAve in
vietnAm
Their potential for
enhancing family
vacations are making
villas and condotels an
attractive global trend.
Although Vietnam has joined the
"second home" trend later than
other countries, it is enjoying a
boom in 2016-2017, marking a
new era of tourism real estate in
Vietnam. A large number of villa
and condotel projects have been
deployed in tourist cities across
the country, including Ha Long,
Ha Noi, Da Nang, Nha Trang,
Ho Tram (in Ba Ria - Vung Tau
Province), and Phu Quoc. Within
the next three years, more than
17,000 "second homes" will be
brought into operation at various
price levels. This will help attract
more international tourists to
Vietnam. Villa and condotel
owners can transfer or sell their
real estate at any time.
According to the Vietnam National
Administration of Tourism,
environment and experience
is the key to attracting tourists.
Therefore, investors are building
villas and condotels in ecological
areas that combine relaxation
and amusement to create a
richer experience for tourists.
Many top real estate groups have
contributed, including Vingroup,
Sun Group, HB Group, Tanzanite
International, and LDG Group.
They have created projects such
as Panorama Nha Trang, Melia
Ho Tram at the Hamptons (the
Hamptons Ho Tram), and the
InterContinental Long Beach
Phu Quoc Residences. Condotel
projects such as InterContinental
Danang Sun Peninsula Resort,
Mercure Danang French
Village Bana Hills, and Premier
Village Danang Resort satisfy
tourists' demands and also meet
international standards with their
services and luxury däcor.
In Da Nang - known as "the
promised land" for tourism
investors - Ba Na Hills, Asia
Park Condotel Sun Premier
Danang Heritage, Olalani Resort
& Condotel Danang and many
other projects work together
to create travel, leisure and
amusement complexes along
the beaches of Da Nang. These
projects offer many options for
secondary investors and attract
a large number of domestic and
international tourists.
Tourism in Phu Quoc can benefi t
from the area's clean blue sea,
pristine white-sand beaches, and
rich plant diversity and primeval
forests. Phu Quoc is becoming
an attractive investment
destination for a number of
large-scale projects, such as
Premier Residences Phu Quoc
Emerald Bay in Khem Beach.
These projects will contribute to
creating ideal travel and leisure
complexes. The completion of
the international airport and
the continued construction of
infrastructure, the casino, and
resorts will enable Phu Quoc to
become a popular tourist center
in Vietnam. Phu Quoc also
offers preferential policies: visa
exemption for foreign tourists,
10% decrease of business
income tax, and 50% decrease of
individual income tax.
Currently, condotels are the
preferred "second home." By
2019, condotels will account for
65% of "second homes" in coastal
markets. Condotel development
has risen rapidly in the last year,
and is predicted to remain an
optimal option for investors in
the future.

"This is a
prevailing
trend in
hospitality
in Vietnam,
particularly in
Nha Trang"
➠ Nha Trang is experiencing growth in the accommodation sector, including
a rise in the construction of condotels, this can only be beneficial to the
destination as it will offer more choices for both the traveler and investor
➠ Nha Trang is experiencing growth from 1 to 5 star hotels and
condotels, this provides consumers a choice and is in line with other Asian
resort destinations such as Phuket and Bali hence bringing Nha Trang to
the forefront when choosing a destination, the rise of Condotels brings
another option to the consumer
➠ As a destination we need to be adaptive and able to change
alongside market demand, an increase in Airbnb rentals along with
condotels is changing the landscape of the tourism industry. It is important
for us ashoteliers/property owners to analyze changes in travelers' habits
and to agile and change to meet their requirements.
➠ Condohotels are not a new concept to many of us from outside Asia,
but relatively new to Vietnam, they provide people and opportunity to
own property while still getting a return on investment and usage for a pre
determined period per year and they provide an alternative to travelers
who want to be self-sufficient. Hotels and Condotels can work alongside
each other to increase the destinations market share.

Villas and condotels: All-in-one
destinations
Incorporating luxurious villas and condotels into modern
resorts with high-grade entertainment facilities can create
an enchanting all-in-one leisure environment. Beautiful
beaches, gardens, lawns, swimming pools, gyms, spas,
restaurants and playgrounds cater to tourists of all ages.
Mrs. Duong Thuy Dung
DIRECTOR OF RESEARCH & CONSULTING
AT CBRE VIETNAM
Many villas and condotels are built near amusement parks,
safari parks, and golf courses to add more value to tourists'
vacations. Las Vegas, for example, is famous for hotels with
casinos or heated swimming pools. Thailand boasts leisure
complexes that provide medical treatment, physical therapy,
and health care.
Vietnam's travel and leisure complexes are following this
trend. In these complexes, tourists can seek adventure and
then relax in a swimming pool or in the comfort of their
private rooms.
In addition, villas and condotels provide:
The opportunity to own a "leisure private house"
A villa and condotel will provide you with a luxury
accommodation with full amenities, including a kitchen and
cooking utensils, just like your private house. You can go to
the market, explore local specialties, select fresh seafood by
hand and cook dishes according to your own preferences.
An ideal accommodation
for multigenerational families
A villa or a two or three-bedroom condotel is large enough for
a multigenerational family vacation. Gardens, green lawns,
swimming pools, gyms, spas, restaurants, and playgrounds
create a universe of entertainment offering something to
each family member. You can also still enjoy hotel services
such as housekeeping and room service. With a one-day tour,
your family can play and relax all day on the beach without
worrying about children and grandparents, as they can play or
relax on the beach and eat their meals at the resort.
Amusement parks and golf courses
Families with children or groups of young people will enjoy
staying at villas and condotels located in travel and leisure
complexes. Businesspeople prefer luxury resorts with golf
courses. If you are unfamiliar with this "sport of kings," you
can take a beginner's course during your stay.
Vacation exchanges with worldwide condotels
Many 5-star villa and condotel systems - such as
InteContinental, FLC, Sungroup... - have attractive vacation
exchange programs, meaning that if you have a villa or
condotel in Da Nang, you can book rooms in the same system
across Vietnam and all over the world. Professional service
networks help you select vacations and book rooms easily.

Novotel Villas - Phu Quoc
"Leisure tourism and the development of
condotels will continue to flourish in the next
years."
➠ Investment in tourism real estate is an
outstanding trend currently, as owners can
combine vacationing with making a profit by
leasing out their real estate. Lucrative investment
in villa and condotel projects is available in good
locations such as Da Nang, Nha Trang, and
Phu Quoc. Even more benefits are available in
Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City. Many projects
offer attractive profit commitments starting at
8ñ10%/per year within five to ten years. This
element attracts investors seeking safe, productive
investment channels.
➠ Condo tourism will continue to boom in the
next years. Condotels are intended to attract
tourists, so they are often built in tourist cities.
Condotels will directly compete with traditional
hotels, because they offer equivalent facilities
and services while their rental prices are a little
≥ KI⁄N CHUY£N GIA / EXPERTS' SHARES
cheaper. Here are some reasons why condotels
will continue to receive the interest of individual
investors.
+ Invested capital in condotels is cheaper than
that of apartments in Ha Noi or Ho Chi Minh
City, as condotels are smaller - most condotels
have areas of 40 - 50 m2; normal apartments are
70 - 80 m2).
+ Annual profit commitments for rent in some
projects are 7 or 8%, while normal apartments do
not have profit commitments.
+ Tourism in Vietnam benefits from many natural
advantages, including a long coastline, a warm
climate, and breathtaking sights. These factors
will allow tourism in the country to develop into a
key industry throughout the next five to ten years,
particularly in Da Nang, Nha Trang, and Phu
Quoc. The number of domestic and international
tourists is expected to rise steadily, making the
demand for tourism real estate - hotels, villas and
condotels - increase as well.
+ A range of owners and brands will cause both
the quantity and quality of condotels to increase,
meeting buyers' and tenants' varied demands. Like
hotels, condotels will be categorized between 3
to 5 stars to provide more options for buyers.
➠ Condotel projects offer many options to
tourists. Varying price levels allow tourists on a
tight budget to approach this new model as well.
Neighboring tourism markets in Phuket and Bali
attract large numbers of tourists because they have
numerous accommodations and tourist attractions.
Phuket presently boasts 21,000 condotels,
while Da Nang has only about 6,000. Tourists'
perception of Da Nang and other tourist cities in
Vietnam will change if they see the availability of
more condotel projects. However, this continued
development must work alongside sustainable
practices to decrease its harm on nature and the
environment. Failure to do this could prompt a
negative reaction from the market, especially from
tourists and foreign investors.

Leaving the burning summer of Ha Noi behind, we decided to travel to
Phu Quoc, the pearl island, where the blue sea is waiting for us two.
We chose to stay at Novotel Villas as it takes only a 5-min drive from
the airport, and around 10 mins to reach the center of Duong Dong
town. On a bright shiny day, Novotel Villas warmly welcomed us with
friendly smiles, good manner and proffesional services, which we
expect from an Accor-managed property. I was very much impressed by
the facilities of the place, vast swimming pools, walking path with lots
of shade from trees.
We stayed in villa Melody, with large windows and a spacious balcony
viewing toward the private pool. The private garden colored by vairous
types of flower. A kitchen with oven and other modern kitchenwares.
The beach in Phu Quoc island was warm and crystal clear. We could
dip ourselves in the water even at night. No word could describe the
feeling of staying with the loved one, watching the sun slowly falls
below the horizon, self preparing the meals, breathing in the fresh air
of the seawind. Such moments are forever kept in our hearts.
Experience international hospitality standard and take the attractive
investment opportunity at Novotel Villas.

In order to meet the demand
of high-end domestic and
international tourists, and to
meet their goal of welcoming
10.5 million visitors by 2020,
Quang Ninh is creating attractive
opportunities for investors. These
opportunities include luxury
resorts, including condotels, a welldeveloped
segment in the coastal
areas of Vietnam such as Da Nang,
Nha Trang and Phu Quoc.
As one of the pioneering condotel
projects in Quang Ninh, the FLC
Grand Hotel Ha Long has attracted
the attention of investors since the
first pieces of information about it
were released.
The hotel is located at the tallest
peak of Van Nghe hill at Block 96.
The hill is 100 meters above sea
level, the equivalent of a 50-storey
building. This provides guests with
a sweeping view of Ha Long Bay at
any time of the day.
The FLC Grand Hotel is equipped
with 5-star amenities including a
1,000 square meter swimming
pool open year round, a modern
outdoor infinity swimming pool, a
fine restaurant, a lively club and the
highest rooftop bar in Ha Long, in
addition to other facilities inherited
from the FLC Ha Long Bay Golf
Club & Luxury Resort.
FLC Condotels offer variety to
investors, ranging in size from
44 to 853 square meters. They
also have a strong commitment
to bringing it the highest profit
margin possible (a minimum of
12% per year for eight years). Not
all competitors are able to do this.
Mr. Hoang Que Linh, the Deputy
General Director of Diamond
Invest Holdings said on behalf of
the main distribution association of
the project, "FLC Grand Hotel Ha
Long owns a prime location that
very few condotel projects in Quang
Ninh can compete with. It is located
next to the FLC's most beautiful
and challenging golf course. I
believe that this location, combined
with 5-star hotel service, will keep
the project's booking capacity above
85%, and its rental commission
income will definitely exceed 12%
per year".
The FLC Grand Hotel Ha Long has
been secured as a strong brand, and
it promises to be a new bright spot
in the northern condotel market. It
has made endless efforts to affirm
its future success.
For more information on FLC
Group's products and sales policies,

Although it is located quite far from China, the cradle
of silk production, Da Lat is now home to many silk weaving
factories. I visited a silk factory about 25 kilometers from the city
center. Although this was not my first time visiting Da Lat, I still
found myself fascinated by the silk production process, which
combines natural delicacy and human skill.
Despite recent technological advancements, Da Lat's silk
industry remains focused on small families and hand-make
uniqueness and quality.
There is a saying that goes: "With
time and patience, mulberry leaves
will become silk." Successful
silk production is the result of
perseverance and endurance. Silk
production is a fundamental element
in Asia's history, symbolizing
prosperity, power and legacy. Two
thousand years ago, the imperial
Chinese army kept silk production
a strictly guarded secret.

I entered an active silk farm that allowed me to
see the process in action. I was handed a cocoon that
resembled a puffy cotton ball. Visitors are not permitted
to enter the mulberry bushes where caterpillars spin
silk cocoons around themselves. The silk worms are
extremely sensitive to humans' body temperatures,
noises and fragrances.
Silkworms are marvelous little creatures. They can
eat anything, but they only produce silk when eating
mulberries. Once the silkworm stops growing it
produces a thread to wrap around itself; the thread
is very thin and about one kilometer long. The worm
also secretes sericin, a substance that makes the thread
adhesive. When silkworms stop producing threads and
form cocoons, the silk farm workers begin to unravel
the threads.
The cocoons are put into hot water to loosen the tightly
woven filaments. The thread is then wound onto a reel,
which is used on a large loom to weave into delicately
patterned fabric.
This production method remains nearly identical today.
Although the demand for silk has risen over the past
centuries, the product is still affordable. Nonetheless,
the process is still complex and still requires great
devotion, care and patience. It takes 3,000 cocoons
to make one pound of super-fine silk. A fine piece is
made thanks to 3,000 would-be butterflies! In the past,
the best Chinese bark (a particular kind of silk) cost as
much as a Roman soldier's salary for an entire year.

During her two-year stay
in India, Ngo Nu had the
opportunity to set foot on 14
of the country's 29 states. She
traveled from north to south
and from east to west. Her
journey to discover the Byundar
flower valley was part of her
plan to "walk alone through
Northern India" - an almost
two month journey during her
first summer holiday in the
country.
Many Vietnamese people only
think of spiritual tourism when
they consider visiting India,
and they overlook the country's
vast and varied terrain. Each
plot of land is linked to a myth
or story. Learning this gave
Ngo Nu the desire to write
an article about her trip to
discover the beautiful paradiselike
flower valley.

Enjoying
the Flowers
in the
Before my trip I had
heard a lot about the
famous Bhyundar
Valley of Flowers in
northern India. Thomas
Hardwicke - an English
scientist and one of
the first foreigners to
discover the valley
during his expedition
through the Garhwal
area in Himalaya - said
that it was the most
beautiful Himalayan
valley that he had ever
seen. It was this bold
statement that inspired
me to visit the valley.

WADING THROUGH
FORESTS AND ACROSS
A GLACIER.
The Bhyundar Valley of
Flowers is an Indian national
park located in the state of
Uttarakhand and nicknamed
the "Land of Gods." UNESCO
recognized it as a world
heritage site in 2005. It
contains over 500 species of
flowers varying by elevation,
making it a paradise for
ecologists.
I'm not an ecologist, but I
was still captivated by the
enchanted Valley of Flowers,
and decided to take a trip
there during my first summer
holiday in India.
My Indian friends who are
passionate about trekking
warned me that the valley
is quite difficult to access. I
was fortunate to meet some
fellow-travelers on the road,
and we split the cost of hiring
a Jeep to take us to the hiking
area. Heavy rain and the valley
being closed had prevented
several of my companions
from reaching the valley three
times. This time, however,
we were in luck and the
weather was fine. Although
it was sunny during the day,
temperatures could drop to
0 o C at night.
The center of the valley
covers an area of ten square
kilometers and can only be
reached on foot. Starting from
Joshimath, you must hike 13
kilometers to Ghangria where
you can reach the valley and
Hemkund - a sacred place for
the Sikh and Hindu where
Gurudwara Shri Hemkund
Sahib meditated before
passing away.
We spent a day walking
to Ghangria village. The
imposing Himalayan
Mountains embrace the
Bhyundar Village. The Ganges
River cuts through the village,
its white foam and early
morning murmur like the
breath of Mother Nature.

From Ghangria village we
hiked four kilometers to the
valley, then an additional six
to Hemkund. At one point we
had to wade across a glacier.
When we reached the top we
were surrounded by dense fog
and had to wait until the sky
cleared to move forward.
My wish was finally granted. I
had the opportunity to touch
the most valuable prize along
this arduous journey. The
beautiful clear waters and the
white blocks of ice speckling
the ranges showed me why
this hike attracted so many
exploration enthusiasts.

FLOWERS OVER THE FOGGY
The following day I visited the
Valley of Flowers. When I saw this
flowery paradise with my own eyes,
I realized that "breathtaking beauty"
was the only way to describe it. As
I reached the top of the slope, a
massive and majestic space opened
up before me, welcoming me into a
completely different world.
The Bhyundar Valley of Flowers
is wrapped in the Himalayan
mountains. Clouds drift among the
peaks, creating a fascinating picture.
Nature lovers must get to know this
valley, one of the holy lands offered
by Mother Nature.
After hiking I reached a landmark
- the stream. The cool breeze, the
clean air and the peaceful silence of
the valley make me wonder how such
a beautiful and majestic place could
exist. I sympathized with Thomas
Hardwicke.
My trek to the Bhyundar Valley of
Flowers lasted for one week. From
the moment I set my foot down in
the valley a special privilege was
bestowed upon me. Those who had
to wait for the mercy of good weather
as my travel companions did were
elated to witness the natural beauty
of the valley. It truly resembled a
sacred dwelling
place for gods.
Further
information
Itinerary
ñ AirAsia and Thai
Airways offer direct
flights from Vietnam to
New Delhi. Travel from
New Delhi to Dehradun
(Uttarakhand) by plane,
train, or bus (buses
arrive every 15 minutes;
the trip will last around
six hours). Travel from
Dehradun to Joshimath
by bus or car (10 - 12
hours).
ñ Hiking: Take a Jeep
from the Joshimath bus
station. Stay overnight
near the foot of a
mountain and start
out early the next
morning to climb the 13
kilometers to Ghangria
village. This usually takes
about one day. Stay
overnight in Ghangria.
The next day, hike
toward Hemkund and
the Valley of Flowers.
Notes
ñ The rainy season,
lasting from June to
August, is the best time
to hike Bhyundar. The
mountain is very cold
- the temperature can
drop to 0 o C at night.
Therefore, bring warm
but lightweight jackets, a
woolen cap, socks and
scarves. Bring a raincoat
as the valley gets a lot
of rain.
ñ Waterproof climbing
shoes are necessary, as
some parts of the path
are icy.
ñ There is no telephone
service in Ghangria
village, but hotels offer
telephone service.
ñ Eating and drinking:
This area is highly
religious, and during the
Shiva ritual, there is only
vegetarian food available.
Bring plenty of snacks.
ñ Photograph: Bring a
memory stick, tripod,
and a moisture-proof
device.

MANY VIETNAMESE PEOPLE SEE PAKISTAN AS AN
UNSAFE AND ISOLATED COUNTRY HELD UNDER
OPPRESSIVE RELIGIOUS LAWS. AS I LEARNED ON A
RECENT TRIP, HOWEVER, THIS COUNTRY IS FILLED
WITH WONDERFUL SURPRISES.

of Pakistan
That is the Karakoram, a magnificent mountain range
spanning the borders of Pakistan, India, and China, inspiring
thoughts of the arduous camel caravan journeys along the Silk
Road. Pakistan is a rich and distinct culture that can be seen
through the character of its long-haul trucks. Pakistan is the
simple, peaceful lifestyle of its people in the enchanting Hunza
Valley. I went to Pakistan to discover these wonderful things
and ended up discovering myself as well.
THE KARAKORAM, A GREAT
CHALLENGE ON THE SILK ROAD
The Silk Road was an ancient network of trade routes
established during China's Han Dynasty. It originated from
the Chang'an Citadel (present-day Xi'an) and stretched to
the Roman Empire. Camel caravans had to transport heavy
loads from China to other nations by traversing the frigid and
treacherous Pamir Mountains and the isolated Karakoram
range, which connects Pakistan and Kashgar - an oasis city in
Xinjiang, China.
Traveling the Karakoram highway today remains a dangerous
challenge. Its location at the height of 4,730 meters above sea
level makes it the highest paved international road in the world.
This mountain road is sometimes unsafe, full of zigzagging
curves and easily affected by flash floods. Flash floods and
landslides have claimed thousands of lives on this road.
In order to experience traveling a branch of the Silk Road, I
bought a one-way bus ticket from Rawalpindi to Hunza Valley.
They do not sell return tickets at the same location because the
weather in Karakoram is unpredictable and affects scheduling.
The bus departs at 9pm every day and arrives at Hunza at 6pm
the next day if the weather is good (the road is nearly 700km).
I had to make ten copies of my passport and visa to submit at
security posts, as this road belongs to the sometimes unstable
Kashmir autonomous area.
As the bus was preparing to depart, a man in civilian clothing
used a small camera to take a picture of each passenger's face.
A local friend explained that due to insecurity in the country,
Houses

the majestic
Karakoram
range
drivers or police will keep passengers' images to
ensure their records in case of unexpected events.
I started sweating when I saw the driver place
a gun beside the steering wheel. It seemed to
demonstrate how unsafe the area could be.

The bus ran relatively fast until
dawn, then stopped for two hours by
a roadside inn to allow the driver to
rest. In the morning we got back on
the bus to undertake the difficult-toaccess
Khunjerab stretch of mountain
road. It began to rain lightly. Drivers
in Kashmir are afraid of heavy rains,
as they can cause landslides and block
buses. Fortunately, we arrived at
Hunza on schedule.
The way back, however, did not go
as smoothly. The Karakoram was
blocked by hundreds of huge rocks
falling down the road. I had to stay in
Hunza an additional two days until
the snow and rain cleared.
"JINGLE TRUCKS" ON THE
SNOWY MOUNTAINS
Pakistan impressed me with
its magnificent scenery and
unshakeable religious values,
TRAVELLIVE
however what surprised me most
about the country was its colorful
lorries. These trucks carry Pakistan's
mysterious culture with them up the
imposing snow mountains.
Visitors to Pakistan will
be delighted to see
the country's unique
take on lorry travel,
with brightly colored
and intricately patterned trucks
traversing the highways. Many have
been captivated and delighted by
this unique aspect of Pakistan.
These special trucks, known as
"Jingle Trucks," have become a
global phenomenon. Truck and
bus drivers across the country
customize their vehicles according
to their own particular styles. Since
they sometimes have to be away
for months at a time, many drivers
incorporate elements that remind
them of home onto their trucks.
Decorations may include paintings
and calligraphy, or even structural
changes like mirror work and
wooden door carvings. Depictions
of historical scenes and poetic
verses are also common. Chains and
pendants sometimes dangle from
the front bumper. Outfitting is often
completed at a coach workshop.
Many researchers have studied the
unique cultural elements behind
these elaborate decorations and
analyzed how this subculture affects
truck drivers' lives, culture, religion
and spirituality.
The tradition of decorating carriages
appeared long time ago in Pakistan
and some other South Asian
countries including Afganistan,
India and Bangladesh. In 1920,
the Kohistan bus company invited
skilful painters from Ustad Elahi

Hunza

lacking of

ous culture
mountains.
Bakhsh to decorate their buses in the
hopes of attracting more passengers.
They found painters from Punjab, the
same place where artists had gathered
to decorate the palaces and temples of
the Mughal Empire. Modern science and
technology has allowed for more intricate
and elaborate designs that retain original
cultural character.
I was fascinated in the patterns on the
Jingle trucks and the stories they told.
Their wheels, roofs, chassis and bodies
were covered with mysterious patterns. It
was an unforgettable experience to sit in
a truck slowly crawling the 4,693 meter
high Khunjerab mountain road and listen
to bells and tintinnabula sing below us on
the chassis. The driver explained that in
addition to their decorative function, bells
helped drivers concentrate on their work
and warded off evil spirits.
Decorations and styles vary across
regions. Karachi, Pakistan's largest city,
is considered the capital of these special
trucks. The cities of Rawalpindi, Swat,
Peshawar, Quetta and Lahore also have
their own characteristics. Trucks in
Balochistani and Peshawari tend to be
decorated with wood, while plastic is
more commonly used in Rawalpindi and
Islamabad. After purchasing a truck, its
owner will take it to a garage to decorate
his "second house." He can decorate it as
he pleases. These modifications can cost
between USD3,000 and 5,000.
Jingle Trucks represent Pakistan's
culture, history and regional customs.
Each colorful truck is a miniature
surrealist spiritual world that helps
protect its driver from danger on the
winding mountain roads.
There is a wide
range of patterns
displayed on each
truck. These are
categorized into five
main groups:
Kashmir
landscapes,
pastoral harvest
scenery, images
of beautiful young
women and romantic
verses;
Patriotic symbols
and images of
political figures;
Venerated
symbols such as
goat's horns, Tibetan
ox' tails, and traditional
temple costumes and
flags;
Abstract religious
icons like eyes,
and sacred animals like
fish and peacocks;
Religious
symbols or
images such as Buraq,
the horse that the
Prophet Muhammad
rode upon.

a traditional Pakistani saying:
"The torrential Hunza River still
nestles close to the magnificent
Karakoram Mountains." Despite
their sometimes unstable and
unsafe situation, the Pakistani
people's lives seem to be as
peaceful as their souls!
PEACEFUL LIFE IN THE
HUNZA VALLEY
Before I planned my
trip, I read Three
Cups of Tea by
American writer Greg
Mortenson, which
is about the author's mission to
educate those living in poverty in
Pakistan and Afghanistan. The
descriptions in the book made me
uneasy, but also gave me the desire
to visit Gilgit - Baltistan, whose
imposing landscapes and secluded
villages are loosely controlled and
threatened by bandits.
Gilgit is the urban center of
Kashmir and the largest city in
the northern region of Pakistan.
The Hunza Valley, 50 kilometers
outside of Gilgit, is home to many
Muslim communities, and is
famous for its magnificent snowcapped
mountains. Even native
citizens of Pakistan try to visit this
area at least once in their lives.
On the long bus ride to the valley,
I met Sharoz, a doctor. He told me
that Hunza had formerlly been
a land of kings, and thus life in
the valley was quieter and more
peaceful than life in Gilgit.
Sharoz invited me to visit his
house that misty afternoon. His
house was one of the many earthen
structures precariously perched
upon the mountains around the
Hunza River. It got very cold at
night. Sharoz told me that the
local people often go to bed early
because of frequent power cuts;
and most houses had one or two
generators.
The people in the Hunza Valley
earn their living by farming. Each
family pastures hundreds of cattle
and grows produce to sustain
themselves and to sell at the local
market. Merchants also purchase
these goods and transport them to
Gilgit and the neighboring areas
of Kashmir. Some families run
travel businesses as well. Spring is
an ideal time to visit this area, as
the cherry blossoms can be seen
in full bloom along the snowy
mountainsides.
By the fire, I shared a delicious
lamb stew with Sharoz's family.
I felt surrounded by the clear,
peaceful atmosphere of the
Hunza Valley.
EXPECTED BUDGET As shared by the author, the total expense for a trip in 14 days is around 1.100USD (a 550USD I ‰ 3 - 5USD/per meal I h 10 - 12USD/night)

DISCOVERING
To me, everything is still pristine in Labuan Bajo, the main island in
the Lesser Sunda chain. From the windy hill top, islands look like green
shells continuosly reaching for the horizon. They are held by little waves
which surround intact white sand beaches.

t took me 90 minutes by plane from Bali - the
most famous tourist island in Indonesia to reach
this primary place. We then set off for a 3 - day
cruise on Labuan Bajo.
In the evening, we boarded a ship from Labuan
Bajo. Land and sea seemed to merge into one
infinite blue. Tourists often refer to Lesser
Sunda as "Indonesia's Ha Long" seeing that
green islands spread in the vast ocean. The only
difference between Ha Long and Lesser Sunda is
their soil. While Ha Long, Viet Nam is made of
ortholimestones, Lesser Sunda is made of a big
variety of soils.
WHILE HA LONG, VIET NAM IS MADE OF
ORTHOLIMESTONES, LESSER SUNDA IS MADE
OF A BIG VARIETY OF SOILS.
The green pearl in the
island country
Unlike other Indonesian islands, Labuan Bajo
and Komodo have not yet been commercialized.
Strolling on the green hills of Labuan Bajo, from
where one can see the beaches hugging the island,
I noticed that nature here is still intact. Just
listening to the waves and breathing the fresh air
from the hilltop makes the experience worthwhile.
In the afternoon, we went diving in the deep blue
area near Komodo where the coral reefs sparkle
and parasites gracefully move. It was easy to believe
we were in a scene from the movie "The Mermaid",
where colorful fish swam and hid behind green
moss or in the gaps of coral reefs.
There is nothing more exciting than getting lost
in an isolated and virgin island and discovering its
wilderness. Whether diving, sunbathing or reading
books while the light faded in the horizon, those
were unforgettable moments.

Komodo Island
Part of Indonesia's most famous national
garden, Komodo Island consists of small
islands and a diversified maritime system
in an area of 1817km2. Most islands are
desert with trodden pathways. The place is
also famous for the Dragon Komodo - the largest lizard
living in the natural environment. In the surrounding
sea, there are many big fish, especially sharks and
stingrays.
Komodo Island was discovered by local Bugis
prisioners in the early 19th century. It is the most
exotic island in Lesser Sunda, named for the giant
creature the Bugis people found there.
Prisoners told fantastic tales about a giant fire-spitting
creature that killed people and animals as big as
buffalos and wild boars. These legends spread and
reached the Dutch sailors, which led Mr. Hensbroek,
an official of the Dutch Colonial Administration, to
take a trip to this strange island and find out about the
legendary creature.
He shot one and brought it to the office in Flores,
Lesser Sunda where he and biologist Ouwens
examined it. The studies published in 1912, based on
made up stories by Dutch sailors revealed the creatures
name, which is Varanus komodoensis, meaning
Komodo dragon. Contrary to myth, Komodo dragon is
a type of iguana, of the lizard specie. It was first seen
in Australia 4000 years ago. An adult Komodo dragon
may weigh as much as 100 kilos and measure up to 3
meters. Their habitat have a diversified fauna and floral

the lights from fishing boats, tourist's ships come on,

system which include plants, birds, and
other mammals. Since 1915, this rare
dragon is legally protected under Dutch
authority...
At the Komodo National Park, we
carefully followed the tour guide's
instructions as Komodo Dragons
are known to attack tourists at close
distance. During a 30-minute walk we
learned about the Komodo Dragon's
routine as well discovered the diversity
in the island. The guide showed us
big holes the dragons have dug in the
sand in their breeding season, which
happens once a year, between May and
June. Hatching lasts about 3 months,
and their egg weighs a couple of kilos.
An infant dragon weighs from 15 to
20 kilos. Due to many environmental
factors, the ratio of successful hatching
is not high.
Only in Labuan Bajo
The Komodo Dragon is not the only
peculiarity in Labuan Bajo. The island
also has pink beaches, which is the
combination of mud, ocean salts, and
white sand. For the remaining 2 days
we joined in other outdoor activities on
pink beaches such as snorkeling and
trekking.
At the end of the day, the sky is painted
red before the sun sinks in the horizon
and gives way to the night. One by
one, the lights from fishing boats and
tourist's ships come on, making a
twinkling string in the dark landscape.
Tonight I sleep on the boat and listen
to the waves. Its soft motion after an
exciting day makes a perfect symphony
in this memorable expedition to the
exotic Komodo island.
Further
information:
ñ Journey: Bali is the main
island and the only terminal
to Labuan Bajo. There are
two airlines with direct flights
to Labuan Bajo, Garuda
Airlines and Lion Air. Tourists
can go by ship from Labuan
Bajo to Flores island. From
Vietnam, there are no direct
flights to Bali, tourists must
tranfer at Kuala Lumpur or
Singapore.
ñ Heritage: Komodo Island
was voted as one of the
seven new wonders of the
world in 2011.
ñ Visa: Indonesia exempts
visa for Vietnamese tourists
to the country with 30 daystay
per entry. Indonesian
currency is Rupiah (1USD
=13300 Rupiah)
ñ Notice: When going to the
island, tourists should bring
sunscreen, swimsuit, towels
and other diving equipments
(these can also be rented
from shops). Tourists should
also bring snacks as they are
hard to find in the island.
ñ Health: Komodo
discovering tour has many
popular activities such as
trekking, hiking or diving
and seeing coral reefs. It is
crucial that the tourist visiting
Komodo Island be in good
physical health to enjoy all
the activities the island offers.
ñ Reference tour: As a new
destination in Indonesia, the
place is still pristine and not
yet commercial. When you
come to Indonesia, you can
refer to tours from local
tourism agencies such as...

According to senior villagers, one folk
song says: "One should go to Cau Nom
for scrap; a talkative daughter should live
with her father". These lines show that
the village used to be famous for collecting
and trading scrap metal. Villagers went
door to door to collect pieces and then
traded them with local and neighboring
bronze casting shops. Thanks to their
hard work, the village has become more
prosperous, houses are built stronger,
and the village has developed better
infrastructure.

Da Lat, the first stop on our trip, captivated us
with its pleasant weather and romantic scenery
full of hills and pine forests. We often woke
before dawn here to experience Da Lat's sunrises.
We studied weather patterns and calculated air
flow and humidity to forecast mist - the most
beautiful scenes appeared 30 minutes before and
after the sunrise. Within this hour, the morning's
thick layer of mist gradually melts away under
the bright light of the sun.

been referred to as the "Ha Long Bay of the Central Highlands".
Lak Lake is one of the largest freshwater lakes in Vietnam.
From a distance, Lak Lake glistens under the sun, resembling
a strip of silk laying across the Central Highlands' mountains
and forests. During rainy season the lake's water level rises
considerably, creating an immense, deep blue plane reflecting
the sky and clouds.
The mythical Bien Ho Lake has been likened to the eyes of
a young woman. The Central Highlands is home to many
ethnic groups, making it richly diverse and full of culture and
community. The M'nong community lives near Lak Lake in
the Jun and Don villages (Dak Lak Province). The Ba Na group
lives in Kon K'Tu (Kon Tum) village. The E De live in Buon Ma
Thuot, and the Gia Rai live in Pleiku.
The area welcomes tourists in to experience the local people's
traditional festivals, particularly in the Jun, Don and K'Tu villages.
Our group had an unforgettable experience in Kon K'Tu village
(in Kon Tum Province) when we joined the traditional Ba Na gong
and xoang dances. The local people are welcoming and hospitable,
inviting you to sit with them near jars of wine.
