The road to Ho Chi Minh City
The contestants of the 73rd Miss World will begin their journey in Hanoi on Sunday, 9th August 2026.
Founded over 1,000 years ago, Vietnam's capital city is rich in history, with the streets of its charming Old Quarter dating back to the 14th century. Today, Hanoi is an inspiring blend of tradition and modernity, filled with vibrant cafés, world-class restaurants, and contemporary art spaces. From ancient temples to bustling markets, Hanoi truly represents the beating heart of Vietnam.

Vibrant and full of energy, Ho Chi Minh City serves as the economic center of Vietnam and the main hub of the southern region. This cosmopolitan metropolis seamlessly blends the old and the new, reflecting both the city's rich heritage and its forward-looking spirit.
Further details of the tour will be revealed in the coming weeks.
