Day 1: Hanoi to Samsun
At 7:30 a.m., we gathered near the office and headed to Samson Beach in Thanh Hoa Province. With anticipation in our hearts, we boarded the tourist bus. The atmosphere inside the bus was very lively, filled with anticipation and laughter for our upcoming company trip.
While traveling by bus, I enjoyed watching the peaceful rural scenery outside the window and listened to the guide’s explanation about the history of Taichung Province and the highlights of this trip.
We arrived in Samsung City around 12:00. For lunch we ate at a local popular restaurant, where we enjoyed a variety of fresh and hearty seafood dishes. The menu was packed with sea ingredients, leaving us all very satisfied.
After lunch, we headed to the hotel to check in and take a break. This hotel is in a perfect location right in front of the beach, and just across the street you can reach the soft sands and the blue sea of Samsoong. From the hotel room window, you can enjoy a beautiful ocean view, and while feeling the pleasant sea breeze, you can truly feel yourself arriving in the coastal city.
Around 4:00 PM, when the sun was slightly tilted, we finally headed towards the beach. Please note that during the time of strong sunlight around 1 PM, no one is on the beach because no one goes into the sea.
The soothing sound of the waves and the cheerful voices of the members filled the air, instantly bringing the beach to life. We spent our time in our own way, soaking in the cool seawater, strolling along the long coastline, taking commemorative photos against the backdrop of the blue sea, white sand, and clear sky.
At 18:30, we had dinner at the hotel restaurant. As the city began to light up with evening lights, we set out to explore “Samson Square.” Our main attraction was the spectacular fountain show that takes place here. The performance, which combines light, music, and the dynamic movement of water, is truly impressive. The square was bustling with many tourists, and it was filled with an intense atmosphere reminiscent of a festival. After the show, we strolled leisurely along the waterfront in the evening, feeling the cool sea breeze on our skin, listening to the sound of the waves, and fully enjoying the romantic evening in Samsun in a way that is different from the daytime. Thus, our first day of the trip turned out to be a memorable and fulfilling one.

On the second day morning, I woke up a little early and watched the beautiful sunrise at Samson Beach from 5 a.m. After that, I had breakfast at the hotel and filled up my energy for sightseeing around Samson's historical attractions.
At 8:30 AM, we set off for the famous sites of Sam Son: Co Tien Temple, Trong Mai Rock, and Doc Cuoc Temple. These are not only places that offer a deep appreciation of Sam Son’s beauty, but also of the local culture, history, and faith. After getting off the bus, we walk through each of the temples, experiencing the ancient and solemn atmosphere harmonized with the natural scenery.
After visiting these three attractions, we returned to the hotel by bus to check out and have lunch. We said goodbye to the fun Samson and the group took the bus back to Hanoi.
On the way back, we stopped at Xuan Khiem service area in Ninh Binh to have a rest and enjoy shopping for souvenirs. We tried Ninh Binh’s specialty Com chay and Thien Hoa’s Nem chua. After that, we continued on the road to Hanoi for about 3 hours and the bus arrived safely in Hanoi. With memories from Samson Beach and lots of hand-made gifts, our rewarding company trip came to an end.

Full commitment to work, full commitment to drinking!
