Our next stop was Ninh Binh which is the first capital of Vietnam going back to the 9th century.
It is also known as Halong Bay on land with the Ngo D**g river weaving amongst the towering cliffs 🏞

There are also a couple of temples that were built in the 17th century to honour the 1st and 2nd Kings of Vietnam👑.

We stayed in Tam Coc which is a lively little town on the banks of the river with plenty of bars and restaurants. The best way to get around is by bicycle 🚲 where you can ride down the laneways and on paths through the countryside.

Hue (pronounced hoo-eh): One of the former capitals of Vietnam this city was a pleasant surprise. Situated on the perfume river, the most popular attraction is the Imperial Palace which is slowly being restored from damage caused by separate wars with the French and Americans. We could have dine with more nights here to explore the city further.

I can highly recommend taking the Heritage train from Da Nang to Hue. This 3 hour journey hugs the coastline with some amazing views.
We were in the Heritage carriage which felt like being in a cosy jazz club.
There is a carriage where you can buy food and they have local entertainment onboard, which was a bit like being in the twighlight zone 😁

Phu Quoc was just the break we needed. You can do as much or as little as you like. From lazing in the beach, tucking into street food, night markets to the weird area's around the cable car and aquapark.
We spent 4 nights here but could easily have stayed a week.

We spent the last day and a half on the cruise in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) where we visited the Bitexco tower for 360 degree views of the city, the history museum, war museum, Reunification Palace and book street.
Such a vibrant city with a sprawling skyline and many great rooftop bars.
We have now met up with our friends for the rest of the trip 🏖

Next up on our Itinerary (Day 6 on the cruise),
we stopped in at Sa Dec where we walked through a spectacular fresh food and wet market.
One of the craziest markets I have been to with people riding their motorbikes indoors delivering and picking up fresh produce.

From there we walked to the former residence of Huynh Thuy Le who was the older lover of French novellist Marguerite Duras.

After sailing further down the river we visited Vinh Long to see a traditonal brickworks and pottery workshop, cruise through some canals and stop in at a traditional sweets shop where I tried tbe homemade rice w**e with a cobra in the bottle🐍

Days 4 of the cruise saw us with a full day in Phnom Penh visiting the Royal Palace, the
National Museum and the prison S21.
S21 was a former school that was transformed into a prison from 1975 to 1979 during the reign of the Khmer Rouge. Citizens were sent here and tortured before being taken to the killing fields.
On Day 5 we headed to Chau Doc to see Ba Chau Xu Goddess Temple and Tay An Pagoda, then on to Sam Mountain for stunning views over the Mekong Delta.

We are now on board the Indochine II riverboat making our way to Ho Chi Minh City via Tonle Sap Lake (the largest freshwater lake in South East Asia - it seems more like an inland sea) ⛴️. Then on to the Tonle Sap River before heading down the Mekong River.

Day 1 saw us visiting Kampong Chnnang, a small fishing village still using traditional pottery 🍯 methods and palm sugar collection and processing - the home made palm sugar liquor would put hairs on your chest🤣

Day 2 was a busy day. Our first stop was Kampong Tralach where we travelled by tuk tuk to Wat Kampong Tralach Leu pagoda for a blessing by a monk.
Next we headed down the river to Koh Chen to see how the villagers work with silver, copper and brass, engraving intricate designs.
It was then back on the boat again to Phnom Penh for a tuk tuk ride around the city and a near head on collision with a ute 😬
The day ended with a performance from traditional dancers who were raised in an orphanage.

🏛️ Angkor Wat has always been towards the top of my bucket list and on Tuesday I finally made it.

Built in the early 12th century by King Suryavarman II, Angkor Wat began as a Hindu temple dedicated to Vishnu, then gradually became a Buddhist site. It's the largest religious monument in the world, and its five lotus-shaped towers still define Cambodia's skyline (and its flag!) 🇰🇭
The Khmer Empire eventually moved its capital south in the 15th century, and the surrounding city of Angkor faded.

The world took notice again in 1860, when French naturalist Henri Mouhot published sketches and accounts of the temples swallowed by jungle.
Today it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Cambodia's proudest symbol. 🌅
