Covering about 331,520 sq. km (128,000 sq. miles), it is roughly the size of Italy. It has a varied and lush topography, with two deltas, tropical forests, craggy mountains and rock formations, and a coastline that stretches for 3,260km (2,025 miles), much of it white-sand beaches. Vietnam also claims thousands of islands off its coast.
