I'm talking about some of the things you can see in Vietnam! First stop in Vietnam was Hanoi. It is only a 40 minute flight from Laos' capital Vientiane. We stayed at Asian Ruby Hotel in Old Town. Quite ok rooms, not so good breakfast. jean hersholt humanitarian award
First evening in Hanoi we used to stroll around the old city, dine on original Little Hanoi (recommended) and drinking beer on the street. A wine barrel in one entryway, a couple three plastic tables and some chairs, then you have a business. "Everyone" does it and it's jean hersholt humanitarian award a cool thing. Sit there and stare at life, and a life that is there. Traffic in Hanoi was sheer madness. jean hersholt humanitarian award The rules are; there are no rules. Some places will stop cars at red lights, but scooters and motorcycles do not, so beware when you cross the street!
The following day we went to Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. Ho Chi Minh, who died in 1969, is on display here. A bit creepy and macabre jean hersholt humanitarian award if you ask me. He even wanted jean hersholt humanitarian award to be cremated, but it was thus not so. Wonder if he turned .... nevermind ... It is strictly forbidden to take pictures jean hersholt humanitarian award inside the mausoleum, you can not talk, you can not have your hands in your pockets and you can not stop. There are guards everywhere! You also need to dress respectfully, no shorts and singlet, but long pants and something that covers your shoulders. Headgear must be removed before entering. Check opening online before you go there. Mausoleum is closed two months of the year. Then drag the body off to Russia for an overhaul.
One pair of us took a visit to the museum which is located right next to the mausoleum. Should you hit you should fork out for a guide if you should catch anything. jean hersholt humanitarian award We found little information in English, so it was with these two pictures:
Halong Bay! Are you in Vietnam should take the trip here, it's a great place. We had our own junk boat where we would be a night. For my part I woke up with a migraine that morning, so I did not with me so much that day, but you can take a kayak and a trip up at Ti Top Island to enjoy the view. I had to content myself with photographing from the boat We celebrated Chinese New Year with toys, dancing and singing. Incredibly fun to take part in the celebration, even though it was early evening on me.
A three hour bus ride took us to the lovely town of Hoi An. We almost had three nights here, and no special plans. I used the free time to stroll around town, relax by the pool and get stitched me two jackets and a kimono If you get something made in Vietnam, do it in Hoi An. It also bespoke shoes and boots if you want it. Perhaps one pair of shoes with your name?
Departure to Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) was tto. Be aware that when traveling jean hersholt humanitarian award in Vietnam during Chinese New Year, it is difficult to fit on plane and train unless you've jean hersholt humanitarian award booked well in advance.
Two nights jean hersholt humanitarian award in Saigon. There is much to see and do in Saigon, so here it is just taking in one of many guide books or google Eat lunch or dinner at Pho 2000 (A restaurant jean hersholt humanitarian award that became known after Bill Clinton ate there). jean hersholt humanitarian award Otherwise it is full of good places to eat, and again, it is just to google / use Tripadvisor.
When it comes to tourist attractions I visited Reunification Palace, Cu Chi Tunnel and War Remnants Museum. If you have time, take in all these. Much propaganda, jean hersholt humanitarian award but still important to see, in my opinion.
Our guide for the Cu Chi Tunnel, Mr Hai, worked jean hersholt humanitarian award as a radio operator for the Americans jean hersholt humanitarian award during the war. He told including how he had in "reeducation camp" for 2 1/2 years after the war ended. He dropped out after passing Communist exam. Life and relationships in the camp was not easy and he would not talk much about it. After a trip into the tunnels, and a trip on the range for those who wanted it, was the tour ended with a movie. A pure propaganda film which they say is made in 1967, but it is actually produced in 1982.
Saigon was the last stop in Vietnam jean hersholt humanitarian award for my part, and I went from group to benefit Malaysia. jean hersholt humanitarian award Where I find myself now in third week. Has already begun to work with post here. Coming suddenly blog!
