The other three are Bhutan, Singapore, and Timor-Leste’s Ataúro Island.

Wanderlust recommended these destinations as well worth visiting if tourists are after an eco-friendly escape.

By putting local businesses at the heart of tourism, Quang Nam is proving sustainability starts at home.

The province takes advantage of its strengths and pays a lot of attention to the environment. 

Therefore, environmentally-friendly tourism products which provide travelers with new and interesting experiences get priority.

Visitors can take tours to coconut forests, use organic products, and visit restaurants limiting plastic waste.

Reaching Hoi An Ancient Town, visitors can mingle with a green space.

Typical tourism products in Hoi An City are cycling around the ancient town and paddling boats along the Hoai River.

Recycled and eco-friendly products, such as essential oils, shampoos, and toothbrushes, are recommended souvenirs.

Rice fields and coconut forests outside the city will help tourists leave their worries behind.
