Default Come back from Vietnam

I have just come back home from Vietnam which is a small lovely country. I had travelled there for three weeks. I went to famous place in Vietnam as Halong, Nhatrang and ending of Hanoi. The seasides in Vietnam are so impressed. Halong is attracted with system of numbers of small and big islands and Nhatrang sea is so beautiful with pure and green sea water. I spent for more 2 weeks to sightseeing in these seasides and feel Asia sunsight, wind and people.

Ending of our travelling is Hanoi Capital. It’s total different from others. Hanoi is crowded and dusty but I like it. Because it’s so special. Especially Old Street in Hanoi. It’s very stwiting and filled so many buildings with full of service kinds. Hanoi people are open, pleasant and hospitable.

It’s interesting in with my thirty-birthday in Hanoi. I congratulated my birthday with friends in KITI Restaurant in No.38 Hang hom Street where is near Hoan Kiem famous lake. It’s a both Europen and Vietnamese birthday! We could delight with a number of delicious food. My friends were very sastisfactory of that party. I choosed KITI Restaurant because their manager is my friend who understand Europen culture so their food is very unique and suit with us.

Next October, Hanoi will be just enough 1000 years-old. A great ceremony will be organized, I will arrive in Vietnam again to see lovely stwiting old street and visit KITI Restaurant with dear Vietnam friends.

Woa. You had a so wonderful trip. Hope that the next time you come to Vietnam you can also get much better. I suggest you a great place if you visit the South:Cu Chi.

Leaving the hustle and bustle of Ho Chi Minh City behind, journey 2 ½ hours west towards the Cambodian border bound for the Cu Chi Tunnels. Before arriving at the tunnels, visit some local friends and gain an insight into local life in the area, both past and present. Learn about their lives, culture and customs and see the recent past through local eyes.

Continue onto the Cu Chi tunnels built by local fighters during the Indochina conflict as a base from which the Viet Cong could operate from close to the Southern Vietnamese capital. The location proved to be of significant strategic importance, as it was at the end of the infamous Ho Chi Minh Trail and within striking distance of the southern Vietnam capital. Initial construction started in 1948 when the Viet Minh required somewhere to hide from French air attacks and by 1965, the tunnel complex was estimated to consist of 200km's of tunnels. It included, hospitals, schools, meeting rooms, kitchens and sleeping quarters. Life was difficult for the inhabitants. To protect against outside intruders, booby traps were laid throughout the complex. Today, the Vietnamese government has preserved approximately 75 kilometres of the tunnels as a memorial park, and in some areas tunnels have been widened and low powered lights installed so that western tourists can now fit through the complex.

The local guide will take you on a fascinating trip around the Cu Chi Tunnels where you can learn more about the conditions the people lived in, the hardships they faced and the amazing ingenuity employed to maintain life in the tunnels. You will walk past huge bomb craters, evidence of the heavy bombing campaigns in the region during the Indochina conflict, discover hidden entrances right beneath your feet, wander past tiny little chimneys in the ground that dispersed smoke from the underground kitchens, sample some of the simple cuisine that local fighters would have survived on and have an opportunity to venture into the tunnels and explore the complex.
