"This book presents a one-of-a-kind analysis of important touristic icons in Vietnamese culture. It also offers a firsthand look at daily life in Vietnam, as well as a semiotic analysis of Vietnam's dominant cultural symbols. Vietnam Tourism paints a vivid portrait of this country's hidden gems and popular tourist destinations, exploring the problems and possibilities Vietnam faces in developing its tourism industry. Over twenty photographs - including a twelve-page color photo section - bring images of this unique country to life."--BOOK JACKET.
