Vietnam listed among world’s 25 best new things to do in 2025
VOV.VN - Traveling across the nation by vintage steam train has been named among the list of the 25 best new things to do in the world in 2025, as compiled by British magazine Time Out.
Coming in at seventh place is a vintage steam train journey across the country that should chug out of the station by early 2025.
As Time Out contributor Liv Kelly reports, these are original steam trains from the 1960s that have been restored to beautiful working condition under the hands of some of the last remaining Vietnamese steam engineers.
These trains will travel between Da Nang and Hue and also have themed dining menus at the three stops of Kim Lien (Da Nang), Lang Co, and Hue.
From beautifully restored vintage trains, visitors will be able to contemplate many sightseeing spots, ranging from the steep limestone mountains and the rice-terraced hills to its island-dotted coast.
Joining a once-every-quarter-century spiritual celebration in Italy took the lead in the list of 25 best new things to do in the world in 2025. Cycling, walking, or paddling along Australia’s longest river came in at second.
The third position went to FENIX, which is the world’s first museum to tell stories of migration through art-open in the Netherlands.
