The insane train line stretching over 1,000 miles and stopping at 191 stations
A Vietnamese railway line which connects two ends of the country travels over 1,000 miles and takes up to 40 hours to complete the journey.
Vietnam’s main railway line, The North-South railway, has a line which connects opposite sides of the country, making it travel over 1000 miles.
Out of the 278 lines that are on the Vietnamese Railway network, 191 are located along the North-South line.
The single-track line connects Hanoi, the country's capital located in the North, to Ho Chi Minh City in the South. The amount of stops on the journey means it can take up to around 41 hours to complete it.
Vietnam Railways is the state-owned national railway company which operates the line.
It was first established during French colonial rule and took nearly forty years to be completed.
During World War II through to the Vietnam War, the North-South line was damaged by sabotage and bombings, and its rail infrastructure remains in poor condition today.
There are proposed plans for a North-South express railway that travels at 220 mph and cuts the journey time of 30 – 40 hours from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City to just under six hours.

As well as to improve railway connectivity between China and Vietnam.
While those plans are still in the works, tourists and locals can still enjoy some of Vietnam’s beautiful areas, such as the Hải Vân Pass and Lăng Cô Peninsula near Huế.
Tickets for the North-South railway can be purchased from around £15 - £36.
