Vibrant, energetic, and a short drive from stunning mountains, Hanoi is made all the better by its affordable accommodations.

3. Kyoto, Japan

A hiker’s dream, Kjeragbolten promises exhilarating treks through gorgeous scenery. Photo ops of boulders set against the ocean as a backdrop are also a guarantee.
