From drone footage of vast terraced fields, to delicious street food, or trips to the forest and sea, TikTokers around the world are taking advantage of this trend to celebrate the beauty of Vietnam through short, fast, intense but impressive videos.
“Vietnam calls, we answer!”
Among the most prominent videos of this trend, Jihane and Julian from the account @tripsofjj attracted more than 117,000 views with a short clip recording their journey through Vietnam.
From Bui Vien walking street in Ho Chi Minh City, experiencing basket boats in Hoi An, walking on Dragon Bridge in Da Nang, visiting natural landscapes in Ninh Binh to poetic terraced fields in Sa Pa, all wrapped up in a short 8-second video that is captivating, urging people to travel right away!
The video, captioned “Vietnam calls, we answer!” also features dishes they enjoyed in the S-shaped country, such as banh mi, goi cuon, and ca phe sua.
Responding to viewers' comments, they revealed that this was their second time in Vietnam and "will definitely come back".
Another video from the account @parmersss is even shorter, only 6 seconds, but has "caused a storm" with more than 3.2 million views.
This video simply captures two tourists dancing at the airport with passports in hand, eagerly preparing for their trip to Vietnam.
Some other trending videos appear to be by Vietnamese people, bringing international friends back to visit their homeland, with captions like “Motherland is calling us back.”

Of course, no list can fully describe Vietnam in the eyes of every tourist.
In the age of social media, trends like “Vietnam is calling” are helping to spread the beauty of everyday life through short moments that touch emotions. It could be a hot bowl of pho, a quiet mountain road, or a friendly smile from a stranger.
Through each short video, Vietnam is not just “calling,” but connecting. The country is still calling, and the world is listening.
