years, give or take, and has its own micro-climate which creates conditions for a

Vietnam

Most of the year, Vietnam’sweather tends to be rather muggy

and heavy, but in March, thecountry’s driest month, the

humidity disappears and theatmosphere is gorgeous.

Cairo, EgyptMarch is a great time to soak in the

only remaining Wonder of the AncientWorld as the temperature in early

spring is warm without reaching thescorching temperatures of summer.

Cairo is also rather rather cheap as faras travel destinations go, so it won’t

break the bank to visit.

natural display is celebrated withan annual Cherry Blossom Festivalwhich starts on the 20th of March.
