With an average room rate of VND1.45 million (US$58), Da Lat has been named the destination in Vietnam that has offered the most competitive room rates during the last two months, according to online travel platform Agoda.

With several long weekends and holidays in August and September across Asia, including National Day on Sept. 2 in Vietnam, Agoda highlighted some of the most popular Asian tourist destinations.

Da Lat took over Hue, which came out on top of the cheapest destinations ranking released in April.

A cool climate and beautiful landscapes make Da Lat a popular destination in Vietnam, Agoda said. Visitors can explore the Valley of Love, the Da Lat Flower Gardens, and the historic Da Lat Railway Station. Adventure seekers will also appreciate the proximity to the Lang Biang Mountain, perfect for those who enjoy hiking and outdoor activities.

The destinations with the cheapest average accommodation rates for Aug. 15 to Sept. 30 across nine Asian markets are Hat Yai in Thailand, Yogyakarta in Indonesia, Kuching in Malaysia, Siargao Island in the Philippines, Da Lat in Vietnam, Narita in Japan, Goa in India, Taichung in Taiwan, and Busan in South Korea.

Despite offering the lowest average room rates, these destinations offer an abundance of experiences that truly allow travelers to see the world for less.

In the latest report, Booking.com also revealed that leveraging the extended holidays, Vietnamese travelers are seeking a blend of relaxation and exploration.

Da Lat, renowned for its picturesque landscapes and charming French colonial architecture, retains its top spot for the second consecutive year.

The National Day, which falls on Sept. 2, is among the biggest holidays in the country. This year, Vietnamese have four days off from Saturday, Aug. 31 to Sept. 3.
